The Middle East Reality and Obama's Disconnect

This had to hurt

Obama is back at it with Israel, telling them they should do what they can to make peace with their Palestinian neighbors, as if they wouldn't if they could. Hours before he said this, some Palestinian terrorists lobbed rockets into Israel from Gaza--how lovely. Do you think they were trying to tell our president something?

Obama makes it appear that Israel doesn't want peace while the poor Palestinians are owed some of "their" land. Before Israel became a nation back in May of 1948, there was no Palestinian state, but that fact seems to have escaped our president. 

Meanwhile, on the other side of the fence in Palestine, Obama spoke about how his daughters (he uses his family a lot when trying to make points, much like some comedians use their wife), are not unlike Palestinian kids. (To me, this was reminiscent of the Trayvon Martin ploy--except the photo of Trayvon that Obama alluded to was when he was 12, not 17 when he was all tatted up and bad-ass looking.) I would have preferred if he said how Palestinian kids are not unlike Jewish kids across the border, but I suspect that would sound something like: Palestinian kids are like those ape and pig, Jews, to the Islamic Palestinians--their religious "scriptures" describes Jews precisely that way. (See Suras 2, 5, and 7 and for more on Palestinian hatred for Jews, go here ). I believe that as long as there is even one Palestinian alive, there will be war with Israel--it's their religious duty. Why do we pretend otherwise?

They blow up so fast

If you recall, Obama told Israel that they should go back to the 1967 borders in order to appease the Palestinians. If Israel does that, there will be no Israel, to paraphrase Bibi Netanyahu regarding laying down one's arms for peace. "If Palestine laid down their arms for peace, there would be peace. If Israel laid down their arms for peace, there would be no Israel." That's the plain, simple truth.
