Obama’s recent pro-Israel positions almost surely amount to pandering of the most cyncial kind:

After all, Obama is on record as having called for an “even-handed approach” to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict in 2000…

Well, we certainly don’t want an even-handed approach, do we?—at least not when it concerns Israel!

Despite their pandering, not sure how anyone concerned about the security of Israel could vote for a Democrat. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakan, and on and on. They hate you guys. Its tragic to watch, so I try not to.

We finally agree on something.  Even the sarcasm is warranted.

The images from Gaza of thousands of people rioting and bowling over The Wall just to get access to life’s basic necessities is heartbreaking - especially knowing that my country is partially to blame.

Hmmm...Obama was pandering to the Hispanics in California yesterday or the day before by promising drivers licenses to illegals.

Now he is pandering to the Jews.

Hopefully, neither will believe him. Especially the Jews. He is no friend, nor will he be a friend, to Israel.

Edited to add a link I just found (via American Thinker) that relates to this subject.

Our country isn’t even partially to blame!
The Paleostinians have no-one to blame but themselves.
They’re the ones who made the decision decades ago that the pursuit of Islamist terror and murder was more important than making sure that they had life’s basic necessities.
(Ironically, the U.S. is partially to blame for that as our “aid” and that of our Leftist-oriented Western countries have helped them stay in their cycle of dependency on Israel and the rest of the West to sustain them while they killed Israelis and Jews.)

“God" said that ... And did you respond?

Oooooooooooooooooo K.

Now ...

What did the majority of Gazans DO to deserve such treatment?  The children TOO.  What are THEY guilty of?

Seems To Me ...

That ONE solution to the problem is to turn the area over to Egypt.  They speak the same language and have other things in common.  A knowledgeable person would seek a variety of solutions rather than blindly following the latest from Foggy Bottom while straddling the fence and pandering, but not REALLY pandering <nudge, nudge> <wink, wink>
