The Ultimate Back-Peddler


Australian journalist/blogger Andrew Bolt points us to a story in the Sydney Morning Herald by Jason Koutsoukis about a very interesting phone call between President Obama and Israeli PM Netanyahu.Apparently, the administration was worried that their campaign to undermine Bibi's government had gone "too far," and Obama was attempting a little damage control:

There has been widespread public concern in Israel about the country's relationship with Washington since Mr Obama demanded that Mr Netanyahu publicly endorse the creation of a Palestinian state and freeze all construction of Jewish settlements in the West Bank. Mr Netanyahu has refused to accept either demand and will unveil his plan to restart the peace process with the Palestinians in a speech to be delivered on Sunday.Mr Netanyahu was scheduled last night to meet Mr Obama's special envoy to the region, George Mitchell, to try to mediate a way forward.Israeli media reported that Monday's phone conversation between Mr Obama and Mr Netanyahu was conciliatory.Israel's biggest selling newspaper, Yedioth Ahronoth, quoted an unnamed aide to Mr Netanyahu who said the "conciliatory tone stemmed from the fact that the Americans realise they went too far and that, ultimately, Netanyahu is the partner that they have, and they must embrace him, not topple him".
You may want to duck....stuff has hit the fan again and is spreading your way. (You can decide what the stuff is.) Remember, Barack H. Obama has proven himself to be the master manipulator in just five short months in office. He sees behind the scenes in Israel, that Netanyahu needs to be soothed, not challenged. Smooch.
But in Obama's manipulative tunnel vision, he doesn't get the fact that people like Benjamin Netanyahu are smarter than he. They see through him. Netanyahu knows that Obama will betray Israel if Israel is forced to confront Iran militarily. Amazingly, I have friends who still believe, when it is all said and done, that Obama will come to Israel's aid should things go sour. It is not only frustrating to see the President backsliding toward the ultimate curse, but many Americans remain blind to the realities of today's world. WAKE UP AMERICAN CHRISTIANS!

  1. Jim,
    I too am frustrated that Christians are blinded and do not see the deception. Pastors in America need to start preaching the truth and quit being babysitters to self centered pew sitters.
