Why is this President different from all the other Presidents?
Israel has had disagreements with other Presidents going all the way back to the Eisenhower administration. So why is Barack Obama different? Jonathan Tobin explains. This year, along with the conventional four questions of the Passover Seder, some Americans are starting ask themselves: “Why is this president different from all other presidents?” The answer is that Barack Obama has now established opposition to Israel’s hold on its capital as a cornerstone of American Middle East policy in a way that is completely new as well as dangerous. Those wondering whether this development ought to cause them to re-evaluate their political loyalties might want to remember the closing refrain of Passover Seders down through the centuries: “Next Year in Jerusalem!”Indeed.

Perhaps because he denies alone to Israel what he accepts without question for all the other nations of the world?
That alone makes Obama different indeed from all the other Presidents in American history.
