Roughly 1,500 Israelis attended a pro-settler, anti-Obama in front of the home of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem today, at which rabbis condemned President Obama as a “racist” and predicted that his demands that Israel halt its settlement growth would lead to the disintegration of the United States.
At least three members of the Knesset (Israeli Parliament) were involved in the rally, which culminated in the protesters marching toward the US Consulate, waving torches and chanting for US envoy George Mitchell to “go home.”
The protesters expressed outrage at US criticism of the West Bank settlements, with one of the speakers caution that President Obama’s “insolence” would bring about his ruin. They urged Netanyahu to fulfill his campaign promises to support the settlements, instead of worrying about US pressure.
The Obama Administration has called for a Palestinian state, albeit one with severe restrictions, and has sought to restrict Israeli settlement growth, despite Israeli claims that they had secret “understandings” with the Bush Administration, though Bush-era officials appeared to disagree over whether such a deal actually existed.
Q – What's the difference between Ahmadinejad's comment regarding the disappearance of Israel from the map and these Israeli settlers' statement regarding US's disappearance from the map.
A – one is 'acceptable' and the other is 'totally outrageous' – it seems
The only way peace will be realized in the Middle-East will be for the US to stop its unconditional financing of the ingrate aggressor.
Can the more enlightened among us please explain why Israe deserves $3,000,000,000 per year of the US tax-payer's money?
Thank you!
One answer:
1) venal US politicians [a tautology],
plus,
2) K Street, i.e., AIPAC
equals
3) $3 billion of our money–much needed here, now–to neo-Zionist racists (e.g., Operation Cast Lead: courtesy of our money via DC)
Just how do these settlers get along with the other Israelis, I wonder? Israel's strategy seems to be to rely on it's demographical survival by importing all these retrograde fanatics from wherever they can find them. Things aren't going to get better any time soon over there. But hopefully these anti-American rallies will open the eyes of Americans who swear by the dogma that Israel is our "friend."
Stop sending the annual billions of American tax dollars to this welfare state of Israel.
Beggars can't be choosers and Israel is a big beggar. They only choose to forget who's
keeping them alive.
well……..seems like every one is in agreement for a change.
to bad the clever Zionist forgot the first rule of empires
that it is easy to get them to come and help… but the imperial court has spent way to much money to let this well armed proxy have its sovereignty…. kind of funny when you think about all the layers of reversals of roles between oppressor and oppressed. to bad all the money flying around has blinded every one with any power to do something.
but try not to forget that it is not a completely one sided relationship,some of the money does come back to the American M.I.C. as well as the fact that israel is what they call a "force multiplier" since any country on israels border is basically unable to act at all has "helped" our own colonial projects to seize Arab and Muslim lands
Jews will say that because Abraham and Sarah were past age 100 when Isaac was born, that their son Isaac was conceived by the Holy Spirit. Anyway that is how most Hebrews feel, they all being blood decedents of Abraham,. And add to this all of the Old and New Testament calling them God's chosen people, one would think they be the most humble people that ever walked the earth.
But the result has been the absolute reverse, for knowing that God has called them the best they feel deserving of all things the best. The best land, best war materials, best security and the best dictatorship complete with an abundance of slave labor.
Comes now an atheist to say, "That proves it, surely there is no God, least of all one that can tell the future. Ship the Jews all back to where they came and let Moslems have the peace they deserve, that’s what any moral God would do."
Problem is, three times has God tried that: (1) 586 BC, Israel exiled to Babylon and promised land given to Palestine. (2) 135 AD, Roman Empire leveled Jerusalem and again Jews were exiled. (3) 1943 AD, Hitler by a genocide exiled Jews from Europe.
My thought is, the purpose of this world is to prove the harm in it.
And it all depends on what people think they deserve. Those who feel they deserve more take all they can take, while those who feel they deserve less give all they can give.
And so, we have a state of war between takers and givers with no end in sight. For whether they be takers or givers all have a clear conscience as they go through life striving to even the score.
"Jews will say that because Abraham and Sarah were past age 100 when Isaac was born, that their son Isaac was conceived by the Holy Spirit."
if you are an orthodox jew you are to beleive every child is created by the "holy spirt"
"And add to this all of the Old and New Testament calling them God's chosen people"
jews don't do the new testament
"Comes now an atheist to say, "That proves it, surely there is no God"
correct!
1st exile was the Assyrians conquering leading to a half exile as the southern kingdom was supported by egypt, followed by Darius the… uh …. Persian king rebuilding the temple, yes then the romans came but hitler did not exile the jews and the zionist project began in the 19th century so hitler was not the cause
"My thought is, the purpose of this world is to prove the harm in it. "
the end result of belief in god
Speaking of retrograde fanatics, I wonder how Israel would react to an offer of a division or two of "God's Warriors" coming from John Hagee. Would they accept help from the Christian Zionists? It would be nice to see a whole lot of these Americans just show up there to help out the "chosen people" and get the kind of welcome I would expect them to get.
The United States of America doesn't actually exist anymore, it died sometime ago and was replaced by the "US-Israel Empire." Israel is the dominant half of the "US-Israel Empire" and essentially functions as America's "overlord." Israel is able to exercise its control over America through the US media (mostly Jewish owned and managed) and via its control of Congress as a result of the "strong-arm" tactics of AIPAC and ADL. The funny thing is that your average US Citizen believes that the United States of America still exists. However, if you ask someone (from a country other than the US) if the United States has become the "US-Israel Empire," the vast majority will agree that the United States no longer exists as a stand-alone sovereign nation. These are very sad times in the late and once great United States. Israel and the pro-Israel Lobby have stolen my America.
