Netanyahu Secretly Capitulates to Obama Demands

In a surprising development in U.S.-Israeli relations, columnist and Middle East expert Carolina Glick uncovered this secret strategy:

This week we discovered that we have been deceived. Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's principled rejection of US President Barack Obama's bigoted demand that Israel bar Jews from building new homes and expanding existing ones in Judea and Samaria does not reflect his actual policy.

Construction and Housing Minister Ariel Attias let the cat out of the bag.

Attias said that the government has been barring Jews from building in the areas since it took office four months ago, in the hopes that by preemptively capitulating to US demands, the US will treat Israel better.

Apparently Bibi has been unable to stand firm against the enormous pressure put upon him by the Obama administration, after all. Interestingly enough, this comes at a time when Obama has lost his political capital with the majority of the American people.

Will Netanyahu Crack Under Obama Pressure?

The intense and underhanded pressure from the Obama Administration may be leading Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to consider a '2-state solution' to Middle East tensions.

Read why this would be an absolutely terrible course of action for the Israelis, at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Obama is actually setting up Netanyahu to fail no matter what choice he makes--a most despicable policy, given that our charlatan-in-chief told the Muslim world that the U.S. has no right to 'impose its values' on any other nation.

So, why is he doing that very thing with Israel?

The Most Dangerous Man in the World

America faces a predicament of historic proportions. We have elected a man to the White House that a writer at the Canada Free Press describes as 'the most dangerous man in the world.'

And this is my topic of discussion today at Columbia Conservative Examiner.

Obama's policies have plunged the nation into disarray and threaten to plunge us even further into complete chaos.

Netanyahu to Obama: 'NO!'

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu indicated today that he will in no way allow Barack Obama to dictate his nation's policies regarding 'Palestine' and Jewish settlements on the West Bank.

Netanyahu Will NOT Support 'Palestinian' State

Despite earlier reports over the weekend that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would support the formation of a 'Palestinian' state in his meetings with Barack Obama in Washington today, Andrew Breitbart has issued a report stating flatly that Bibi has no intention of doing any such thing.


Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will refuse on his trip to Washington to back the formation of a Palestinian state, an MP close to the premier said on Saturday, according to national radio.
Netanyahu "will not make a commitment to Washington on the creation of a Palestinian state which would undoubtedly become a 'Hamastan'," Ophir Akunis from Netanyahu's right-wing Likud party was quoted as saying, referring to the Islamic movement Hamas which controls the Gaza Strip and favours armed struggle against Israel.

This comes as good news. The last thing Bibi needs to do at this point is to capitulate to an American President who has spoken and behaved as if Israel is nothing more than a mere spectator to the debate concerning its own survival.

Numbskull at the Helm


Unlike the Bush administration, the staff of President Obama is not coordinating its policy on Iran or the greater Middle East with Israel and has not been informing the Jewish state of its plans or recent diplomatic developments in area, according to sources in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office.

We have a numbskull at the helm in the White House. Read the entire sickening story of Obama's non-cooperation with Israel here.

Obama Concerned Over Rightwing Gov't in Israel

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that the Obama Administration is concerned about the prospects of 'a rightwing government in Israel,' given the expected outcome of elections that will place Benjamin Netanyahu in control of a majority conservative coalition.

Obama has every reason to be concerned. Now that the political rightwing is coming to power in Israel, that means that the President can't strong-arm and cajole Israel into making ridiculous concessions to those all around it who wish to see it annihilated.

This is by far the best news we've heard in a long time coming out of Israel, given that the U.S. Government is under the control of cowardly appeasers whose place in history is that of danger and war rather than peace and security.

As an important counter-balance to the new U.S. policy of supporting Israel's enemies, it is refreshing to see that Israel will be led by those who will not hesitate to take whatever steps necessary to defend the Jewish state from barbarians who live right at its doorstep.

The Most Dangerous Man in America

You know that the nation is in deep trouble when the most dangerous man in America is the President of the United States.

I know this is a brazen statement. But let's consider the facts.

He has made the decision to close Gitmo prison that houses the most dangerous terrorists in the world. This will mean that these barbarians will be brought to the U.S. mainland to be housed in a prison facility near you, right in your own backyard.

He has decided that overseas sponsors of terror need to be 'understood' and 'listened to.' Not only that, but he has decided America needs to apologize to these terrorist regimes for being responsible for poor relations between the U.S. and the nations involved.

We have nothing to apologize to a terrorist for. And such an act only emboldens terrorists, which we saw with the reaction of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he said that Obama's statement proves that the U.S. is now 'in a weakened state.'

Ahmadinejad then proceeded to make demands of the U.S. before Iran would be willing to sit down at the negotiating table with the U.S.

Note that last point carefully. In Obama's world it is not the U.S. that makes demands of a terrorist state prior to diplomatic negotiations but it is the terrorist world that makes demands of the U.S.

And Iran's first demand was that the U.S. cease to be an ally of Israel.

You see, this is precisely what you get when an imbecile sits in the White House.

Not only is Obama setting the stage for nuclear war in the Middle East when Israel has to go it alone to fight for her survival in a region of nations that desire that she be wiped off the map, but he is creating a scenario where terrorists will be coming en mass to our own shores.

We can expect a major terrorist attack on American soil at some point before this monstrosity we have elected leaves office.

Add to that Obama's desire (and that of his new Attorney-General) to disarm average American citizens, and we then have a scenario where the entire country from top to bottom is nothing but a sitting duck not only for thugs, thieves, murderers, and rapists, but terrorists who will unleash their suicide bombs on American streets, just as they have been doing in Israel.

Welcome to Obamaland.

Obama's Policy on Iran Blames America

Within his first two weeks of office, Barack Obama has made a series of glaring blunders with regard to U.S. foreign policy. One of those blunders involves a change in U.S. policy toward Iran.

As Middle East expert and world-renown journalist Caroline Glick notes,

The most sympathetic interpretation of Obama's desire to move ahead with diplomatic engagement in spite of the mullocracy's preconditions is that he has simply failed to countenance the significance of Iran's demands. This means that Obama remains convinced that the US is indeed to blame for the supposed crisis of confidence that the Islamic world suffers from in its dealings with America. By this reasoning, it is for the US, not for Teheran, to show its sincerity, because the US, rather than Teheran, is to blame for the dismal state of relations prevailing between the two countries.

Thus, the 'Obama Doctrine' is that America, not the terrorist regime in Iran, is to blame for the dismal state of affairs between the 2 nations.

And therefore, according to Glick, Israel will be forced to change its policy accordingly:

And under these circumstances, Israel's next government - which all opinion polls conclude will be led by Likud leader Binyamin Netanyahu - will have to adopt certain policies.

First, in keeping with his campaign rhetoric, Netanyahu will have to make preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons his most urgent priority upon entering office.

And second, to withstand US pressure to allow the Obama administration time to develop its ties with Teheran, (time that Iran will use to build its first nuclear bomb), Netanyahu will need to form as large and wide a governing coalition as possible. All issues that divide the Israeli electorate between Right and Left must be temporarily set aside.

In the age of Honest Obama, Israel is alone in recognizing the necessity of preventing Iran from acquiring the means to destroy the Jewish state. Consequently, Netanyahu's government will need to proceed with all deliberate speed to take whatever actions are necessary to prevent Israel's destruction.

This is serious, life-and-death stuff about which we speak here. Be sure to read the entirety of Caroline Glick's stunning analysis of the dangers to come here.

Obama to Israel: 'Open Border with Gaza'

Signifying a major shift in Middle East policy, President Barack Obama on Thursday pressured Israel, fresh from its response to years of terrorist bombs from Gaza, to open up its border with the area.

If Israel's leaders have one single ounce of rationality left in their bodies, they will simply say, 'No, thanks, Mr. President,' to the Obama plan.

The mere suggestion that Israel consider opening borders with one of the most dangerous and deadly areas on earth is cause to wonder if the new President has taken leave of the entirety of his senses.

To their credit, Israel's response to Obama was measured. Without flatly refusing to consider the proposal, the Israeli leadership merely stated that they would never consider opening the border if the result would be the strengthening of Hamas, which is precisely what such an action would do.

As long as the Palestinians allow Hamas to continue to send rockets into Israel, and as long as residents in the area continue to spout their sentiment that Israel has no right to exist, then the Jewish state would be well within its rights to tell the American President to kiss off.

This is the kind of pie-in-the-sky, liberal knee-jerk type of foreign policy that will get the entire Middle East blown to bits in the long run.

The Map

The map says it all, and Pamela Geller has it.

One tiny Jewish nation surrounded by large, powerful, and hostile Muslim nations.

Here are some stats that should further illuminate the truth:


22 Totalitarian Arab/Islamic Countries
One Tiny Non-Arab/Democratic Country – Israel (in red, below)
Arab Countries – Oil Rich
Israel – No Oil Reserves
Arab Countries Have 800 Times More Land Than Israel
Israel is Only 1/6 of 1% the Size of the Arab Lands
It is so small…it is 1/19th the size of California
Israel: The Most Disputed strip of Real Estate on Planet Earth!
22 Hostile Arab/Islamic Nations Allied With 1.4 Billion Muslims Worldwide
One,Tiny Jewish Nation On The Entire Earth - Israel

Be sure to take a look at the map provided at the link above...scroll down a bit to see it.

In further news of the Israeli retaliation against Hamas terrorists, the White House issued a statement today in full support of Israel. So did the German government. The Germans of all people.

Israel vows an all-out war against Hamas until the perpetrators of violence and mayhem against the Jews are obliterated.

Common Propaganda vs. The Facts

In a world in which extremists within Islam have the upper hand in swaying public opinion through the mainstream media and governments that are friendly to its goals, the truth has suffered at the hands of the common propaganda.

The facts concerning Israel have been lost somewhere in the barrage of talk about 'keeping the peace at all costs,' 'establishing a palestinian state,' and other such nonsense.

Israel is invariably portrayed as the aggressor. Islamic terrorists are described as the victims.

Nothing is any more powerful in the fight to expose terrorist propaganda than a clear, straightforward presentation of the truth--the facts.

At the top of the list is the contention that since modern Israel is a creation of the United Nations in the midst of Islamic territory, it is therefore an illegitimate nation that deserves to be put to rest or at the very least divided up between its Muslim enemies.

This is propaganda.

Israel's history did not begin in 1948 but in antiquity when the Hebrews established a nation with a theocratic government.

Although critics maintain that the land in question actually belonged to another race of people prior to the Hebrew invasion of 'the land flowing with milk and honey,' any historian would be hard-pressed to make a case for the ancient Canaanites having any connection whatsoever to modern-day Muslims.

Dozens of the ancient races that once inhabited the region in and around the land once known as 'Canaan' no longer exist, just as surely as the Mayans suddenly and mysteriously disappeared from the face of the earth.

The fact is that Israel has had claim to the land in the region since 1312 B.C., and Jerusalem has been its capital for 3,300 years.

Below you will find a piece found in the comment section over at Israellycool.com. It is entitled, 'Crash Course on the Arab Israeli Conflict.' And within it you will find the bare facts that pierce through the common propaganda:
Apparently, Benjamin Netanyahu gave an interview and was asked about Israel’s occupation of Arab lands. His response was “It’s our land”. The reporter (CNN or the like) was stunned - read below “It’s our land…”

It’s important information since we don’t get fair and accurate reporting from the media and facts tend to get lost in the jumble of daily events.

“Crash Course on the Arab Israeli Conflict.”

Here are overlooked facts in the current Middle East situation.
These were compiled by a Christian university professor:
BRIEF FACTS ON THE ISRAELI CONFLICT TODAY.

It makes sense and it’s not slanted. Jew and non-Jew — it doesn’t matter.

1. Nationhood and Jerusalem. Israel became a nation in 1312 BCE, Two thousand years before the rise of Islam.
2. Arab refugees in Israel began identifying themselves as part of a Palestinian people in 1967, two decades after the establishment of the modern State of Israel.
3. Since the Jewish conquest in 1272 BCE, the Jews have had dominion over the land for one thousand years with a continuous presence in the land for the past 3,300 years.
4. The only Arab dominion since the conquest in 635 CE lasted no more than 22 years.
5. For over 3,300 years, Jerusalem has been the Jewish capital. Jerusalem has never been the capital of any Arab or Muslim entity. Even when the Jordanians occupied Jerusalem, they never sought to make it their capital, and Arab leaders did not come to visit.
6. Jerusalem is mentioned over 700 times in Tanach, the Jewish Holy Scriptures. Jerusalem is not mentioned once in the Koran.
7. King David founded the city of Jerusalem. Mohammed never came to Jerusalem.
8. Jews pray facing Jerusalem. Muslims pray with their backs toward Jerusalem.
9. Arab and Jewish Refugees: in 1948 the Arab refugees were encouraged to leave Israel by Arab leaders promising to purge the land of Jews. Sixty-eight percent left without ever seeing an Israeli soldier.
10 The Jewish refugees were forced to flee from Arab lands due to Arab brutality, persecution and pogroms.
11. The number of Arab refugees who left Israel in 1948 is estimated to be around 630,000. The number of Jewish refugees from Arab lands is estimated to be the same.
12. Arab refugees were INTENTIONALLY not absorbed or integrated into the Arab la nds to which they fled, despite the vast Arab territory. Out of the 100,000,000 refugees since World War II, theirs is the only refugee group in the world that has never been absorbed or integrated into their own people’s lands. Jewish refugees were completely absorbed into Israel, a country no larger than the state of New Jersey .
13. The Arab-Israeli Conflict: the Arabs are represented by eight separate nations, not including the Palestinians. There is only one Jewish nation. The Arab nations initiated all five wars and lost. Israel defended itself each time and won.
14. The PLO’s Charter still calls for the destruction of the State of Israel. Israel has given the Palestinians most of the West Bank land, autonomy under the Palestinian Authority, and has supplied them.
15. Under Jordanian rule, Jewish holy sites were desecrated and the Jews were denied access to places of worship. Under Israeli rule, all Muslim and Christian sites have been preserved and made accessible to people of all faiths.
16. The UN Record on Israel and the Arabs: of the 175 Security Council resolutions passed before 1990, 97 were directed against Israel.
17. Of the 690 General Assembly resolutions voted on before 1990, 429 were directed against Israel.
18. The UN was silent while 58 Jerusalem Synagogues were destroyed by the Jordanians.
19. The UN was silent while the Jordanians systematically desecrated the ancient Jewish cemetery on the Mount of Olives.
20. The UN was silent while the Jordanians enforced an apartheid-like a policy of preventing Jews from visiting the Temple Mount and the Western Wall.
These are incredible times. We have to ask what our role should be. What will we tell our grandchildren about we did when there was a turning point in Jewish destiny, an opportunity to make a difference?

Glick: Netanyaho, Obama, and Future of Israel

It is abundantly clear, based upon Obama's statements and his choices for foreign policy advisers, that the incoming President will make it extremely difficult for Israeli politicians who are opposed to peace plans that mandate concessions to enemies who wish to annihilate it.

Bill Clinton did the same thing during the 1990s, the result being that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had an extremely difficult task in holding off Israel's mortal enemies due to immense pressure from the American administration.

We are now facing another era in American-Israeli relations where the Hebrew nation is being placed on the defensive against a huge worldwide consensus that contends that it alone is to blame for the ills of the Middle East--the very same propaganda put forth by Hamas, Hizbollah, and other Islamic terrorist organizations.

It is no surprise that the Obama administration will jump on board this shameful display and once again pressure Israel to simply hand over Jerusalem and other key areas. Anti-Israeli advisers have been chosen by Obama, and some of these are retreads from the Clinton years.

In Caroline Glick's latest article, these issues are explored in depth.

(Glick is an internationally-known journalist and Middle East expert living in Jerusalem).

Israeli Prime Minister Election of Grave Significance

Israel's upcoming election for Prime Minister is of grave significance. The nation is at a crossroads.

Either Israel will continue on its path of self-destruction in an increasingly volatile scenario with Iran, Syria, and Iraq, or it will instead choose the tested and tried leadership of former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

If ever there were a time for Netanyahu as Prime Minister of Israel, the time is now. If the present course is continued, Israel will attempt to appease those sworn to its total destruction by giving away half of Jerusalem and more of its land.

This is an exercise in futility, for appeasement never works with those who never waver from their single-minded goal of destroying a nation. Even if Israel turns over part of Jerusalem and other areas to Palestinian groups, we can rest assured that those groups will want even more and will persist in calling for Israel's destruction.

The most recent surveys show Netanyahu with the lead. But he has opposition. And that opposition will simply continue down the self-destructive path, if elected.

For a complete analysis of the campaign in Israel, Netanyahu's opposition, and what's at stake in the election, click here to go to the story at The Jerusalem Post.

BIG PRO-ISRAEL RALLY TODAY IN BOCA RATON

Boca Raton, Florida is the setting today at 12 noon for the big pro-Israel rally. If you're in the area, go and take someone with you!

To quote co-sponsor Pamela Geller:

"Nidra Poller will be joining me on the second half of the show. Poller is my partner in crime on our schlep through Florida. The objective of our information tour is to educate and arm Florida's older voters with the facts about Obama and McCain so when they walk into the voting booth, they are confident they are making an informed decision."

News Alert! Israel Plans to Bomb Iran?

U.S. officials state that military exercises conducted by Israel earlier this month appear to be directed at Iran, and that it seems likely that Israel plans to launch bombs against nuclear facilities in Iran.

If this indeed is the plan, then good for them. Such a move is long overdue. With the squeamishness of the West in dealing directly with the danger a nuclear Iran poses to the entire world, then perhaps Israel can do what we have not had the courage to do.

The key will be keeping the Bush administration, particularly Secretary Rice, out of the picture. With Bush now focused on his 'legacy' and with Rice making ridiculous assertions about dividing Jerusalem, we can be assured they will do all in their power to pressure Israel not to conduct the bombing.

But Israel needs to stick to its guns. History shows that when we turn the Israelis loose, they get the job done when it comes to their own security as a nation.

Thus, I say to Israel, let the bombs fly.

Israel on the Precipice

While we Americans are consumed and distracted by politics, particularly the politics of one dangerous and untested commodity by the name of Barack Obama, Israel, America's most important strategic ally, stands on the precipice, dangerously close to total destruction.

Israel's current leaders are the most incompetent in the history of the nation and are curiously too eager to give away large portions of land to Muslim interests in the name of 'peace.'

It seems that they are even willing to give away half of Jerusalem.

The so-called 'Palestinians' have no intention of being placated. They want the whole enchilada. They do not believe Israel has a right to exist, although Arab/Muslim interests control 99.9% of the land-mass in that area of the world.

Thus, the whole fight is about that one .1% of the land in that area...interesting, isn't it, that 'Palestinians' begrudge the Jews even that!

Caroline Glick, one of the world's foremost authorities on Middle Eastern policy, Middle East Fellow at the Center for Security Policy in Washington, DC, and deputy managing editor of The Jerusalem Post, has this thought-provoking and disturbing article on the subject here:

Duncan Hunter--Israel Should Not Give Up One Inch of Land

Washington, DC (TLS). Republican Presidential candidate Duncan Hunter stated Monday that if he is elected President he would be guided by the premise that Israel should not be pressured to give up a single inch of land as a prerequisite for peace.

In the court of world public opinion, somehow Israel is portrayed as the bad guy in its fight for survival against mortal enemies sworn to its demise all around it. Hunter correctly assesses the Middle East situation as 'having the deck stacked' against Israel while Palestinians, Iranians, Al Qaeda, and others go about their dirty work to destroy the Jews and anyone who defends them.

Hunter has thrown his support behind Israel in the fight.

Needless to say, we like it! Read the full story here:

Obama Caught Red-Handed

Washington, DC (TLS). On the campaign trail, Barack Hussein Obama has played a game of deftly tweaking his remarks on the Israeli-Palestinian problem to fit the particular audience he happens to be addressing. On the surface this is no great sin, for it is a tenet of public speaking that the speaker address the issues that are of particular interest to the group that is being addressed.

With Obama, however, the problem goes far beyond that.

Obama has clearly taken two opposite positions. When speaking to a Jewish-friendly crowd, he clearly portrays himself as a friend to Israel. But when addressing Arab-Muslim-Palestinian-friendly audiences, he blatantly takes an anti-Israel stance.

Atlas Shrugs has the goods on Obama with a videotape of the candidate, caught red-handed in the midst of outright lies.
