A Message to Israel: Beware of Obama

Written by Michael Goodwin, Columnist of the N.Y. Post

First he comes for the banks and health care, uses the IRS to go after critics, politicizes the Justice Department, spies on journalists, tries to curb religious freedom, slashes the military, throws open the borders, doubles the debt and nationalizes the Internet.

He lies to the public, ignores the Constitution, inflames race relations and urges Latinos to punish Republican “enemies.” He abandons our ­allies, appeases tyrants, coddles ­adversaries and uses the Crusades as an excuse for inaction as Islamist terrorists slaughter their way across the Mideast.

Now he’s coming for Israel.

Barack Obama’s promise to transform America was too modest. He is transforming the whole world before our eyes. Do you see it yet?

Against the backdrop of the tsunami of trouble he has unleashed, Obama’s pledge to “reassess” America’s relationship with Israel cannot be taken lightly. Already paving the way for an Iranian nuke, he is hinting he’ll also let the other anti-Semites at Turtle Bay have their way. That could mean American support for punitive Security Council resolutions or for Palestinian statehood initiatives. It could mean both, or something worse.

Whatever form the punishment takes, it will aim to teach Bibi Netanyahu never again to upstage him. And to teach Israeli voters never again to elect somebody Obama doesn’t like.

Apologists and wishful thinkers, including some Jews, insist Obama real­izes that the special relationship between Israel and the United States must prevail and that allowing too much daylight between friends will encourage enemies.

Those people are slow learners, or, more dangerously, deny-ists.

Notwithstanding all of the important points mentioned by Mr. Goodwin, for some unexplained reason liberal Jewish people still support Obama and this disastrous deal.

There are none so blind as those that will not see, doesn't that sort of describe the Obamamaniacs in their defense of the disastrous policies of Obama? We are no longer looked to as the premier country of the world, we've become the laughing stock by the likes of Putin, Assad, Khomeini, and that little twerp Kim of No. Korea. And yet, we continue to lead from behind as the whole world goes to hell. It looks like Jimmy Carter will meet is maker with a smile on his face as he will no longer be considered the worst president in modern times.
