When Obama begins losing one of his party’s most reliable voting blocs, it’s bad news for the Democrats. And pretty damn good news for Israel.
You think? You actually think Jews might look at Obama’s Palestinian policy and contrast it with his Israeli policy and start to think that this president might not have Israel’s best interests at heart?
According to a new poll conducted by McLaughlin & Associates, a plurality of Jewish voters would now consider someone else for President. Here are the specifics:

You might forgive Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for feeling a little dissed by The Greatest Diplomat In History. President Obama gave him a mere handshake instead of a bow and then walked out to attend a private dinner.
Obama's "smart diplomacy" has prompted Israelis to post signs that say, "Anti-Semitic Jew hater"
You might forgive Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for feeling a little dissed by The Greatest Diplomat In History. President Obama gave him a mere handshake instead of a bow and then walked out to attend a private dinner.
Really. Fox News reports, “For a head of government to visit the White House and not pose for photographers is rare. For a key ally to be left to his own devices while the President withdraws to have dinner in private was, until this week, unheard of. Yet that is how Benjamin Netanyahu was treated by President Obama on Tuesday night, according to Israeli reports on a trip viewed in Jerusalem as a humiliation.”
It’s always reassuring, somehow, to see that the rest of the world’s media is just as biased as the American media. Take, for example, this story from the BBC.
The headline says, “UN Chief Says Gaza Suffering Under Israeli Blockade.” Damn those dastardly Israelis. The article continues:
Everything is Israel's fault according to Ban Ki-Moon and the U.N. moonies
It’s always reassuring, somehow, to see that the rest of the world’s media is just as biased as the American media. Take, for example, this story from the BBC.
The headline says, “UN Chief Says Gaza Suffering Under Israeli Blockade.” Damn those dastardly Israelis.
The article continues:
The UN chief has said Israel’s blockade of Gaza is causing “unacceptable suffering,” during a Middle East visit to reinvigorate the peace process.
Ban Ki-moon told Gazans that “we stand with you” as he visited an area damaged by Israel’s offensive 14 months ago.
His visit to the region comes amid tension over Israel’s plans to build more settlements in East Jerusalem.
But if you force yourself to keep reading, you’ll come to this revelation mentioned in passing all the way down in the tenth paragraph:
Among a list of criticisms of the blockade by Israel and Egypt, Mr Ban said the blockade was counter-productive as it prevented legitimate commerce and encouraged smuggling and extremism.
What’s that? The problem is so severe that Egypt, another Muslim country, is cooperating with Israel by blockading Gaza?
We assume the left will now begin referring to the evil, racist Egyptians in the same way that they refer to the evil, racist Israelis?
The Israelis lay blame the recent violence in Jerusalem directly at the feet of Barack Obama. C’mon, these guys are smart enough to know that Joe Biden was reading from Obama’s script. Maybe even his teleprompter.
Can someone please explain the Palestinians rock-throwing proclivity to us?

Israel National News has more intifada info:
Close to 200 people converged on the Gush Etzion intersection on Saturday night to protest what they called the “Obama Intifada.” The ongoing Arab violence, which has seen a sharp increase in rock-throwings and even live-fire attacks on Israeli vehicles over the past week, continued Sunday morning with riots near Tekoa and an attempted stabbing east of Shechem.
The Gush Etzion demonstrators held signs reading, “Crush the Obama intifada! No more rock-throwing! Stop the building freeze against the Jews.”
Among the public figures who arrived and spoke at the Saturday night protest were Rabbis Dov Lior, Gideon Perl, Yosef Tzvi Rimon, and Yaron Durani; Rabbi Avi Weiss from New York, columnist Dr. Amiel Ungar, Atty. Elyakim Haetzni, Efrat Mayor Oded Revivi, and Kiryat Arba Mayor Malachi Levinger.
Joe Biden got very excited about the news. “That’s great,” he said, “I love Obama’s frittatas.”
“The Middle East,” President Obama said, “is obviously an issue that has plagued the region for centuries.” Heads will roll at the White House. Who forgot the Teleprompter? Just imagine the howls of liberal laughter if George Bush had made that same statement.

State Hillary Clinton has ‘fessed up that Barack Obama’s “smart diplomacy,” which seems to be comprised of writing pretty letters and giving pretty speeches aimed at Iran, has produced results just as impressive as the smart diplomacy policy with North Korea. Which is zero.
And when we say “solid B-plus“ we mean it’s a complete, dismal failure.
Yes, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has ‘fessed up that Barack Obama’s “smart diplomacy,” which seems to be comprised of writing pretty letters and giving pretty speeches aimed at Iran, has produced results just as impressive as the smart diplomacy policy with North Korea. Which is zero.
This video demonstrates a first: Former UN Ambassador John Bolton and Clinton agreeing on something.
We don’t want you to think we’re exaggerating this story. So watch the embedded video to the 2:15 mark. It’s un-friggin-believable.

Sure, it may show an Israeli soldier killing a sweet, smiling young Palestinian girl at point blank range, but what the heck. Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu says the controversial drama Ayrilik (“Separation”) will continue to air.
Davutoglu said the government really has nothing to do with the issue. No, no, no. It’s all up to the state run Turkish Radio and Television Corp, which airs the show.
“This is a matter to be evaluated entirely as part of their broadcast policies,” he said. “Turkey does not have censorship.”
Of course, this comes from a report from the state run Anotolia news agency in a story about the state run television network. But the state run Turkish government bears absolutely no state run responsibility.
The United Nations welcomes Ahmadinejad, Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu asks those who did not walk out on the Holocaust denier, “Have you no shame?”
Benjamin Netanyahu asks the question any reasonable person would ask.
“The man who called the Holocaust a lie spoke at this podium. To those who refused to come and to those who left in protest, I commend you. You stood up for moral clarity and you brought honor to your countries. But to those who gave this Holocaust denier a hearing, I say on behalf of my people, the Jewish people, and decent people everywhere — have you no shame? Have you no decency?”
Cynthia McKinney was aboard a ship attempting to break the Israeli’s blockade of the Gaza coastline. The Israelis intercepted the ship, boarded it, and arrested nineteen of the 21 people aboard, including her.
Cynthia McKinney is so crazy that she makes Cindy Sheehan look sane
Leftist loon and former Georgia congresswoman Cynthia McKinney has discovered that being a loose cannon isn’t enough to win a war against the Israeli military.
According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, McKinney was aboard a ship attempting to break the Israeli’s blockade of the Gaza coastline. The Israelis intercepted the ship, boarded it, and arrested nineteen of the 21 people aboard. McKinney was one of the nineteen.
The Greek-registered ship, carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, is officially named Arion but the U.S.-based Free Gaza Movement prefers to call it the Spirit of Humanity.
This is getting to be a habit, because McKinney was aboard another ship that collided with an Israeli naval vessel while trying to get to Gaza last December.
“This is an outrageous violation of international law against us,” said McKinney (D-GA). “Our boat was not in Israeli waters and we were on a human rights mission to the Gaza Strip. President Obama just told Israel to let in humanitarian and reconstruction supplies, and that’s exactly what we tried to do. We’re asking the international community to demand our release so we can resume our journey.”
A show of hands, please. Who wants to tell McKinney that President Obama is not the Commander-In-Chief of the Israeli military?

Here’s a clip of a moderate Hamas-produced children’s TV show in which Farfur, Mickey Mouse’s merry Muslim twin, is murdered by an evil Jew over a land dispute.
Jimmy Carter says Hamas should be taken off our terrorist list. They’re the moderates, he insists.
Here’s a clip of a moderate Hamas-produced children’s TV show in which Farfur, Mickey Mouse’s merry Muslim twin, is murdered by an evil Jew over a land dispute.
Might the Obama administration use this clip as evidence that Hamas is still a terrorist organization?
Nah. They’re more likely to be sued by Disney for copyright infringement.
According to a new poll conducted by the Jerusalem Post and Smith Research, 6% of Jewish Israelis still think President Barack Obama’s administration is pro-Israel.
Barack Obama spent 20 years with Jeremiah Wright, 20 minutes with Benjamin Netanyahu
According to a new poll conducted by the Jerusalem Post and Smith Research, 6% of Jewish Israelis still think President Barack Obama’s administration is pro-Israel.
Go figure.
Luckily, the poll has a margin of error of 4.5%, which means the actual percentage of Jewish Israelis who are stark, raving lunatics may be as low as 1.5%.
The poll was conducted among a random sample of 500 Israeli Jewish adults.
We did a poll of our Jewish Israeli friend. 100% of him believes President Obama has forgotten that there’s only one Western-oriented democracy in the Middle East.
Our poll was conducted from a representative sample of one Jewish Israeli adult. The margin of error was 0%.
Ahhh, those happy days back before it became wrong to be Wright
Reverend Jeremiah Wright is talking again. And his comments are not going to help President Obama’s relationship with Israel. Not at all.
Wright said he hasn’t spoken to Obama since the President threw him under the bus last year. “Them Jews aren’t going to let him talk to me. I told my baby daughter, that he’ll talk to me in five years when he’s a lame duck, or in eight years when he’s out of office. They will not let him…talk to somebody who calls a spade what it is.”
“Ethnic cleansing is going on in Gaza,” Wright added. “Ethnic cleansing of the Zionist is a sin and a crime against humanity, and they don’t want Barack talking like that because that’s anti-Israel.”
Finally, Wright indirectly confirmed the truth of the accusation that Obama must have heard, but not been bothered by his inflammatory sermons while attending the Trinity United Church of Chicago for twenty years, by admitting that his message hasn’t changed:
“…the media went back five, seven, 10 years and spent $4,000 buying 20 years worth of sermons to hear what I’ve been preaching for 20 years?”
Pity poor Israel is surrounded by enemies – Lebanon to the north, Syria and Jordan to the east, Gaza and Barack Obama to the west.
Those two veteran America haters, Reverend Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers enjoy each other's company at a weekend protest
Those two harmless jesters who don’t know each other, never met each other, barely knew Barack Obama, and wouldn’t really know him if they ran into him on a Chicago street, got together in Chicago on Sunday.
Yes, unrepentant terrorist Bill Ayers and America-hating Reverend Jeremiah Wright led a group of community activists, clergy and residents on a march “demanding a just solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.”
Translation: Screw the Israelis.
“We can’t be squelching viewpoints because they are unpopular or because someone has a reputation through Fox News,” said Caren Levy Van Slyke, a spokeswoman for the group.
Translation: Fox News shouldn’t have told the truth about Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright.
When asked about the event, President Obama said, “Who? Bill Who? Jeremiah Who? I don’t believe I’m familiar with either of those gentlemen.” Then he laughed his ass off and said, “Gotta go. I’m nationalizing a couple more industries this afternoon.”
OK, the previous paragraph is a complete fabrication. But it could have happened.
Are we the only ones who find it odd that all members of the U.N. Human Rights Council run unopposed?
Why that Barack Obama guy is unstoppable. First he gets elected President of the United States, then he gets the United States elected to the most corrupt organization within the remarkably corrupt United Nations.
You’ll be proud to know that the United States now sits on the U.N. Human Rights Council. Right alongside such notable human rights advocates as Cuba, China, Russia, and Saudi Arabia.
We’ve boycotted the commission in the past because it served primarily as a venue to bash Israel.
Here’s how Associated Press reported this milestone achievement for President Obama:
Former President George W. Bush’s administration boycotted the council over its repeated criticism of Israel and its refusal to cite flagrant rights abuses in Sudan and elsewhere.
But the U.S. announced in late March that it would seek to join the council to help make it more effective, reflecting President Barack Obama’s desire to create a “new era of engagement” with the international community.
Even though the U.S. did not face competition in its regional group for a seat on the 47-member council, it needed to get at least 97 votes — a majority of the 192 U.N. member states — in a secret ballot. It did far better, winning 167 votes.
“We received 90 percent of the valid votes cast,” U.S. Ambassador Susan Rice pointed out after the vote. “And we’re gratified by the strong showing of encouragement for the United States to again play a meaningful leadership role in multilateral organizations including the United Nations on the very vitally important set of issues relating to human rights and democracy.”
Let’s review: We ran for this obscene council unopposed and got 90% of the vote.
On one hand, the 90% figure is so high that it sounds suspiciously like the election results announced in a country like North Korea or Cuba. On the other hand, we ran unopposed and still couldn’t get one out of ten countries to vote for us.
Another week, another Obama nominee bites the dust. But at least this one had paid his taxes.
President Obama’s controversial choice to be Chairman of the National Intelligence Council has withdrawn his name from consideration for the post.
Charles W. Freeman blamed the “Israel lobby” for his problems. Others said the withdrawal had more to do with questions about Freeman’s financial ties to China and Saudi Arabia.
Financial ties to China and Saudi Arabia? Who does this guy think he is, Bill Clinton?
Speaking of Bill Clinton, remember how the Clinton campaign was so successful using Fleetwood Mac’s “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow” as its theme song?
We think it’s time for you to choose a theme song for your administration, Mr. President. May we suggest the little ditty performed by Queen in the attached video. Certainly seems appropriate.
Don’t thank us, Mr. President. We’re here for you.
Just as we were starting to think we’d never find anyone crazier than Hamas, along comes Roseanne Barr. The former star and current lunatic claims Israel is firing those rockets at itself.
This comes direct from her website, Roseanne World.
ohlmert you lie:
you say that twelve rockets were fired into israel since the end of the “war” (ethnic cleansing). Not one Israeli was hurt or killed by these rockets, and now you say you are going to go back and kill more palestinians to teach them a lesson!!!
“I think rockets are being fired by your own sources, since less than ten israelis have been killed by them. You are bullshitting the world as you pocket money made from arms sales, along with bibi and your agents in Hamas. step down all men in power!
Please note that all incorrect punctuation and lack of capitalization comes courtesy of the lovely and gracious Miss Barr.
Our thanks to the good folks at Gateway Pundit for this absolutely bizarre story.
This is one of those stories the media never covers. And one of the reasons we hate them.
During the recent Gaza conflict, it was widely reported that Israel Defense Forces had bombed a U.N. school in the Jabalya refugee camp. This led activists to accuse Israel of war crimes and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to demand an investigation.
Now the U.N. reports that “a clerical error” led them to falsely accuse Israel of the attack. The international organization’s January 6 field report said an IDF shell had caused fatalities when it hit outside the school, but an updated field report dated January 7 said the shell hit the school itself.
U.N. spokesperson Roseanne Roseannadanna said, “Oops. Never mind.”
Funny how coverage is so much spottier when it comes to retractions. Especially when it involves Israel.
The number of civilians killed in the recent Gaza conflict is dropping almost as fast as Hamas’ credibility.
During the conflict, the Palestinian Authority wailed that Israel was slaughtering thousands of innocent civilians. One of them was supposedly an “innocent” medic named Naim. And the international press dutifully reported every word as truth.
