Israel Matzav

Barack Obama's surrogate

I could not believe my eyes and my ears as I watched TV and listened to Obama’s mouthpiece, US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta hysterically chastise and threaten Israel, our only real ally and fellow democracy in the Middle East. He shrieked at Israel as if this exemplary, hugely successful sovereign nation were an 8 year old boy that Panetta was about to take to the wood shed.

In remarks at a Brookings Institution conference, Panetta, in the most undiplomatic and disrespectful tones, called upon Israel to again start negotiations with the Palestinians. “Just get to the damn table” Panetta said during the event in Washington. “The problem right now is we can’t get them to the damn table to at least sit down and begin to discuss their differences.” He says Israel is becoming increasingly isolated and needs to ‘reach out and mend fences’ It’s not enough, he said, for Israel to rely on a strong military for security, diplomacy is also needed. Panetta said Israel could “reach out and mend fences” with countries such as Turkey, Egypt and Jordan, countries he said share an interest in stability in the Middle East.

Obviously, Panetta knows nothing about the history of the conflict, dating back well over a 100 years wherein the Arabs have never accepted the concept of a Jewish State or even one Jew in what they have deluded themselves into thinking is holy Islamic land. Instead they have done everything to make war on the Jews since the middle of the 19th century to prevent them from returning to their biblical homeland.

...

At the end of his outburst, Panetta sugar coated his wood shed speech with the usual perfunctory lip-service remarks, which, at least in the past, have been sincerely spoken by previous American presidents. He emphasized that Israel will “always have the unshakeable backing of the United States.” Let us hope Israelis don’t hold their breath waiting for this backing to happen while Barack Obama is in the White House.

Obama’s true colors, lies and hypocrisy thus burst forth through the inane well planned destructive remarks of his obvious surrogate. By coincidence, In his usual narcissistic fog, Obama had just patted himself on the back as the “best Administration Israel ever had.” Most Israelis, especially, after this unveiling will take great exception to this self-evaluation. Unfortunately, the useful idiot American Jews that attended Obama’s fund raiser in the heart of New York the previous evening, appeared to believe him and continue to pour big bucks into his overflowing never-ending political campaign coffers.
