Our arrogant President, in one misguided and despicable speech, threatened not only Israel’s safety, but its bare existence. Obama has clearly telegraphed his socialist plans for America, and now he has made clear on which side he stands. In the Middle East, he is against Israel.
Obama lacks a sense of history in the same way he lacks a sense of humor.
He is grim as is our future.

Netanyahu Delivers Rare Public Rebuke to U.S. President Over Proposal to Restart Peace Talks
By JAY SOLOMON And CAROL E. LEE
WASHINGTON—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a rare public rebuke of President Barack Obama at the White House, declaring that Israel would never accept the terms of his proposal to resume peace talks with the Palestinians.
Mr. Netanyahu appeared to lecture Mr. Obama following their nearly two-hour meeting Friday—exposing tensions between leaders over Mideast policy that are usually kept out of the public eye.
That followed some unsuccessful behind-the-scenes wrangling by Israeli officials to convince Mr. Obama to abandon plans to urge, in a major speech Thursday, that peace negotiations resume based on Israel's borders before it gained new territory in the 1967 Six Day War.
Before cameras and reporters in the Oval Office Friday afternoon, Mr. Netanyahu turned to face the president while telling him Israel "cannot go back to the 1967 lines" that are "indefensible."
The discord was likely to play out further at the annual gathering of Washington's most powerful pro-Israel lobby, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, where Mr. Obama was scheduled to speak on Sunday and Mr. Netanyahu the following day.
