4. not that bright, he think that American r
stupid enough to notice that this so call new generosity comes right after the mad pali shooting in texas, baaaaa since the begining of his career he is busy to put out so many fires including runing for media to explain his course of action, this is not how president should behave his entire career founded on damage control, I got a strong feeling that if you act this way you probably gullty of something much more serious like mega market economice menipulation. just go and look the subjet will ya

6. He is in Alaska today saving the porcupine caribou.
To heck with the citizens of Alaska. He is going to cow tow to the Asians. He still thinks Alaska is a territory. Smuck. It was snowing like a son of a gun. Maybe he won't stay long. Global freezing and all.

7. #3 actually it WAS done before.
Bush established this office. It has been vacant for 9 months. Bush did a lot of very dumb things, but this was a reasonably good idea.

8. who will Obama appoint?
His spiritual mentor "Reverend" Wright? He knows all about how Jews invented antisemitism to take over America and oppress the universe

10. Obama, don't appoint anyone, disband the seat!
Just look the commentaries here. Jews are not even able to say "thank you" for a man who is making a seat to fight their worst threat - although America and he himself does not gain anything from there. Antisemitism or no antisemitism, America will continue to live - it is not its threat. Is there an official to fight islamophobia? Is there an official to fight racism towards black and yellow people? But there is a person who is appointed just to fight antisemitism. And Jews here, in these commentaries, cannot even say "Thanks for paying a person and giving a budget to fight our greatest nightmare, and thanks for doing it just for goodness sake." Oh, yes, please, do not start with "Oh, we have suffered so much, it is right that somebody kisses us, buhuhuh!!!" You were not enslaved for 100 years, as were negroes, whipped, tortured, killed, kept in gutter. Yes, you were exterminated in WWII, but guess what? So where MANY nations, Slavic nations included. 6 milion of you were killed. How many Russians? 8 millions. So get a grip and move on. And try to say "thank you" to a people who are good to you. After all - you are a chosen people, you have to be better, no?

13. well
its about time, I also recommend that we fight racism and anti semitism in Arab countries, I was enrolled at an institute for foreign service in Iraq, hoping to become a diplomat and I can tell you we had Ambassadors and students whose hero was Hitler and they would make statements as sick as saying that Hitler's 'Mein Campf' is a literary achievement and when I would fight that and wrote a report that Iraq should recognize Israel and establish cordial relations not based on ass kissing or succumbing to pressure from the United States like other Arab states do, but we should look for common interest and the fact that there are so many Iraqi Jews who migrated to Israel and we should invest in them and propagate a new culture based on mutual interest and love, guess what? I was called a zionist and expelled. well Mister Obama I shoudl hand you a few names that should be banned from entering the United States and I hope you combat Anti Semitism soon.

what a wonderful post. thank you so much for your feelings and for your moderation and logic. yes, it would be nice. israel gives iraq all the tech and knowledge and iraq gives the oil commodity and friendship goes both ways. however, let me remind you that jews did not "emmigrate" from iraq to israel. THEY WERE EXPELLED AFTER ISRAEL WAS BORN. there is not a single jew (maybe a very few old ones) that now exists in iraq. pity. because they lived there way before islam was even born. nonetheleas, i appreciate your sincere comments and your open minded approach. it is to be commended and i only wish that more arabs thought like you do. the world would be a much better place to live in, especially in the middle east. love will always win and hate will always loose. avi, israel

yeah not all were expelled some left and some were expelled, your info is not very precise, many fled to Europe and Africa and the United States because Israel was still be re-established as a nation, I use the word re-established because you had your history and yes it is your land of promise, I disagree with the way that your government runs things when it comes to certain issues, and I look forward to the day when any person who wishes to immigrate to Israel and become an Israeli citizen should be able to do so despite his beliefs and faith. Many wealthy Iraqi jews decided to stay or convert so that they avoid being reprimanded for no reason at all and expelling some was , is and will always be wrong, because people should be given the freedom to choose where they want to live. I would also like to add that the Jewish agency did promise poor Iraqi Jews a better life in Israel and targeted the wealthy ones so that they would migrate and yes our government back then was to blame for not stopping the attacks against jews, I mean so what new nation was being established again and they should have helped Israel instead of fighting it because its people had already suffered a great deal in Europe under the Nazis and that is a horrible crime against humanity, I look forward to the day when I can get material and show it in person in schools and universities and show people the atrocities and barbaric crimes committed against Jews and we should all make sure that such savage acts never take place again be it against Jews or any one and that is why it is essential that we all fight anti semitism.
