Obscenity personified: Obama lies, stabs Israel in the back, wishes us a Happy Chanuka
The title of this post was stolen from a tweet by Anne Bayefsky after the United States abstained in the Security Council on Friday, allowing a resolution to pass that condemns as 'a flagrant violation' of 'international law' Israel's 'settlements' in the 'West Bank' and 'east' Jerusalem.
Will this resolution matter? John Bolton thinks it will. Let's go to the videotape.
Meanwhile the killing in Syria continues, but since there are no Jews involved, no one cares.
What better time to break with 50 years of US policy in the Middle East and try to impose a 'solution.'
Oh and guess what the mamzer was doing at the very moment he let the resolution pass... he was wishing all the stupid Jews who voted for him a Happy Chanuka.
Thanks for the stab in the back Obama.
While the resolution has not woken up too many Democrats to the fact that Obama's a Jew hater, it has woken up the Israeli government. In fact, Prime Minister Netanyahu claims that Obama had specifically promised to veto any UN resolutions in his last days in office.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Saturday accused President Barack Obama of breaching a specific commitment to Israel by allowing through Friday’s UN Security Council anti-settlements resolution, and compared the outgoing president’s behavior to that of predecessor Jimmy Carter, “a president who was hostile to Israel.”
Vowing not to be forced by international pressure into withdrawing from disputed territory, he said the incoming administration of President-elect Donald Trump had indicated that it would join an all-out war against what he called a “shameful” and “scandalous” decision.
He described the 14-0 vote in the Security Council, with the US abstaining, as “the swan song of the old world that is anti-Israel.” Now, he said, “we are entering a new era. And as President-elect Trump said, it’s going to happen a lot faster than people think.”
In this new era, it will a lot more costly for those who seek to harm Israel, he warned.
Practically speaking, Netanyahu also announced that Israel was re-evaluating all of its dealings with the United Nations, and that he had already instructed officials to cut off “30 million shekels ($7.8 million) of funding for five UN bodies that are particularly hostile to Israel.” More such action will follow, he promised.
I think he should recall his ambassadors from the UK and France and Egypt as well, and call the US and Russian ambassadors in for a dressing down.He noted that he had recalled Israel’s ambassadors from New Zealand and Senegal, two of the four countries that sponsored the resolution that have diplomatic relations with Israel. Israeli aid to Senegal has also been halted, he said.
Netanyahu had more to say.
The US abstention came in “a complete contradiction” to a “specific commitment by President Obama in 2011,” he said. It was “a shameful anti-Israel ambush” by the administration, he said.
“The whole Middle East is going up in flames,” he said, “and the Obama administration and the Security Council” target Israel, the region’s only democracy. “How shameful.”
...
US legislators intend to pass a law to punish states or organizations, including the UN, that seek to hurt Israel. The US alone, he noted, provides a quarter of the UN’s funding.
He said Israel was “on a journey” to improve its relations with the nations of the world. “It could be that this scandalous decision yesterday will accelerate this process. This is the straw that broke the camel’s back. Yesterday’s decision is a recruitment call to all our many friends in the US and around the world — friends who have had enough of the UN’s hostile treatment of Israel and who intend to push fundamental change at the UN.”
Therefore, he said, invoking the spirit of the Hanukkah festival which began on Saturday, “the light will oust the darkness.”
Speedily and in our times.

The UN is a force for evil; has been such for nearly its whole existence. The totality of ignorance, cupidity, and sloth within its walls is unmatched in the world's history.
The whole infrastructure needs to be moved out of the U.S., perhaps to Brussels, where so many like-minded moral midgets also dwell. As Bolton once recommended (a paraphrase), kick it out of America and use that space to house the poor.
I hope this latest demonstration of stupidity sounds its death knell.
Meanwhile the killing in Syria continues, but since there are no Jews involved, no one cares.
South Africa. During the Apartheid regime, very few black people were killed, while in the surrounding countries more than 5.5 million people were murdered in the First and Second Congo Wars. And Black South Africans could drive a car, while women in Saudi Arabia could not.
Yet, South Africa, and only South Africa, was boycotted, first in sports, then economically, by the rest of the world, including the US.
So maybe it is not a question of Jews and non-Jews. Maybe it's a question of people who are white and people who are not (perceived as) white. Maybe it's a question of people who are rich and people who are poor. Maybe it's a question of people who can be associated with European colonialism and people who cannot. Maybe it's a question of people who claim to be moral and people who don't.
Yes, certain countries are subjected to sanctions for certain behaviors even as other countries get away with far nastier behaviors. But unless all members of the Apartheid regime converted to Judaism and we didn't learn, there's no reason to believe that such unequal treatment has anything to do with Jewishness.
