While the foreign policy “debate” in the upcoming US presidential election seems inordinately focused on cozying up to Israel, Israeli Ambassador to the United States Michael Oren is finding himself in the rather awkward position of trying not to be an election issue.
Oren today “categorically denied” having made statements condemning the Republican Party and terming it “dangerous for Israel,” saying that Israel’s goal is “bipartisan support” and that they “have great friends on both sides of the aisle.”
The allegation came at a “training session” for Jewish Democrats, during which Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D – FL) claimed Oren had confided in her that Republican policies were a threat to Israeli interests.
Wasserman-Schultz went on to say that Republicans were “undermining Israel’s security” by criticizing President Obama’s policy in the Middle East, saying it was vital to ensure that there was never “any daylight” between US and Israeli policies.
What a display of theatrical modesty and coyness from this Oren character – the GOP (with Mitt Romney) finally gets down on its knees to promise Israel that the US will attack Iran upon Romney's election and Oren get all swoony and says this proposal is "all so sudden" and "can't we just be friends". This Byzantine manner of courtship is worthy of Jane Austin
The very moment this satanic regime cease to exist, Whole World may experience visible relief!!! peter czech
Could it be that Israel is playing both sides of the card?
Neither a Republican Party nor a Democratic Party when it comes to israel, only two wings of the zionist party.
It's like this for America's election between Mitt and Obama,
heads….America loses
tails……..Israel wins
