US Adminstration: Why don’t you like Obama?

Akiva Elder, chief political writer for Haaretz, informs us this morning that according to an Israeli source just returned from Washington:

The U.S. administration is furious over Israeli incitement against President Barack Obama

Israeli incitement against the US President. Got that! Elder’s unnamed source goes onto to tell us how these democratic congressmen even had the audacity to hint that the blame for this incitement lies with Bibi Netanyahu.

Now, I’m no Bibi fan, I never have been, but to hint that Bibi is to blame for the Israeli public’s reaction toward POTUS is, well, quite frankly, hysterically funny.

There are many reasons why Israeli’s, of all political strands, think that Barak Hussein Obama is bad for Israel. Here’s my top five:

1. During his appeasement speech in Cairo Obama re-writes history by implying that Israel’s creation was rooted solely in the Holocaust, thus ignoring 3500 years of Jewish history in Israel.

2. Obama blames the fate of Palestinians in refugee camps on the Israelis – ignoring Arab intransigence and UNWRA inaction.

3. Obama has reneged on previous agreements Israel had with the US regarding settlements. In doing so he has explicitly said that those settlements are the stumbling blocks in the peace process, therefore placing the blame for inaction on the road map firmly at the feet of the Israelis, ignoring the very simple facts that the Palestinian leadership has done nothing since Oslo to actually work towards peace.

4. The holocaust and Israeli treatment of a hostile Palestinian populace are not equivalent. During the holocaust 6 million Jews were murdered, since 1948 the Palestinian demographics world wide have increased from approx 1 million to 10 million. Clearly if Israel is involved with Palestinian genocide then they really aren’t doing a very good job of it; unlike the real Nazi genocide against Jews.

5. Obama believes that an entity that is dedicated to the destruction of the State of Israel should be negotiated with – after all, as we have been told time and time again by his administration, its all about the settlements. Right!

So Mr Elder and your unnamed sources, if Israelis don’t like Barak Hussein Obama might I suggest instead of blaming Israelis, who seem united on this front (which is, in itself, a remarkable achievement for such a politically fractured society), BHO takes a long hard look at his actions with regards to our country and takes a few minutes to think about why Israelis might not like him.
