No surprise here. Perhaps the kneejerk-reflexive Jewish vote that liberal Democrats have (justifiably) taken for granted for decades -- Hey, we're as solid as the black vote! -- will find a more thoughtful home going forward. Naaaaaaaaah...

Making friends with Arabs? That is a joke, unless you want to convert to Islam and live under their slavery. You are a nut, and certainly not a christian or anything other than a muslim.

Hamas is not here to stay. This evil, like Al-qaida is a cancer that needs to be destroyed. We don't need to settle for a world with Islamic terrorists and evil. We should all be able to live in harmony!

Well we dealt with Stalin, Mao and various murdering thugs all over the world so why not Hamas? This cynicism will indeed bite us hard.

Making allies with the arab world is a wishful figment of delusional imaginations. The US has spent billons of $$ to try and buy some "friendship" from the arab nations but at its core, the middle east cannot abide by the existence of our country. Those that think for a minute that the open hand policy will accomplish anything that will improve the status quo are deluding themselves.

Douche. Both you and O.

Hey, you forgot the 25% of Jews that didn't vote for BO, and I'm one of them. I'm not responsible for the 75% that vote Dem. Out of the 300,000,000 people in the U.S., around 7,000,000 are Jewish. It looks to me, that someone else besides the Jews voted for this guy.

With the Obama administration talking to Hamas, Israel maight wake up one morning and find out that Obama has given their country to the Palestinians!

And yet the Jewish population of America continues to worship the Democrats...go figure.

The story makes no sense and appears to be an effort by someone to ignite a controversy between Obama and Israel (and Jewish Americans).

as much as "his majesty" Obama may want to (and has, BTW) he has to abide by the laws of the country and one of those precludes him from negotiating with terrorist organizations. The administration will try to paint it as something inocuous and serving a higher purpose but it will be trampling the law in any case. The public is basically ignorant and conscious mainly of the WIIFM? (what's in in for me?). There was nary a peep when the US government forced BP to put 20 billion in escrow for the spill. I may not like what BP did or didn't do, but since when does the executive branch of the government have the right to take money from a private company? Think about it. This administration is blurring the line and making the behavior acceptable and the public is letting it happen. Like most radical revolutionaries know, political and social change is not brought all at once, they just turn the heat slowly up until it's too late to reverse it.

So Obozo want to cozy up to Hamas, further revealing his pro-Arab leanings. And Hamas then ignores his request that they hush-hush this. And this is clever diplomacy? Who's screwing whom?

WHAT WOULD ONE EXPECT FROM A NON-CITIZEN, AMERICA HATING, PHONY PRESIDENT..... THIS MAN AND HIS KIND ARE EVIL....

Poor Hamas, the trick is on them. Obama just wants to unionize them.

I am pro Israel, do not think Jersusalem should be divided, and believe that Israel has a right to all the land won since 1948. I did not vote for this president, and abhor how he has treated Israel. I find myself aligned with the religious Jews, but certainly not the secular American Jews. They bear a huge responsibility for the predicament we face. Through the ACLU and Hollywood and the Press, the moral fabric of our country has been whittled away. The Leftist/Communist leanings of the secular Jews aways vote Democrat. The Press did not vet Obama, and being owned primarily by the Jews, put a man in office who we are all suffering under. I pray for the peace of Jerusalem. God is her defender, and she will be saved by HIM. However, the secular America Jews bear responsibility for undermining both our countries.

OBAMA, IS A MUSLIM FUNDALMENTALIST AND SOON THAT WILL COME TO LIGHT AND THE WORLD WILL WONDER OVER HIM, BUT HE WILL BE DEALT WITH BY OUR HEAVENLY FATHER!

Here a SAD fact almost 70% of the voting Jewish people here in the USA voted for Obama and over 50% still think he is doing a good job WOW

I hear you. I just don't understand the other 75% who did vote against Isreal and for Obama. It's not my homeland at stake. It's a nation that is our only ally in the region and I find it incredible how we are treating them. "It looks to me, that someone else besides the Jews voted for this guy. " Yeah. A bunch of people with no regard for the state of Isreal or American culture. Get the other 75% in line before it's too late.

Peace continues to elude the Middle East because no-one seems willing to resolve the religious problems at the core of the conflict. Every peace initiative over the past 60 years has tried to apply a political solution to the religious problems, with predictable failed results. Let me recommend: "Solving the Arab-Israeli Conflict", by Walter Phillips, which appears to be the first attempt to effectively resolve the two principal religious issues that are feeding the conflict: 1. Mohammed's final command that the Arabian Peninsula become Islamic. 2. Moses' final command that the Israelites occupy Israel, which includes the West Bank and Gaza areas. Since Muslims are aware of Mohammed’s commands, and Jews and Christians are aware of Moses’ commands, Israel and the Islamic nations are forced to negotiate a solution in bad faith. The US is being drawn into the conflict because those directing US foreign policy simply do not appreciate, and largely ignores the influence of Mohammed’s and Moses’ legacy in the region. Details of the solution are provided below. http://researching.wordpress.com/2010/01/05/solving-the-arab-israeli-conflict/ Regards.

NATO? You can't be serious. and what would that Interim solution be? You are out to lunch.

Or as some other morally vapid and ignorant folks say, "One grimy radical indiscriminately slaughtering children and old women isn't any worse than a disciplined Israeli soldier defending his homeland." Grow up, dude.

Quit bringing your wars and enemies on us. You stole that land over there and now you're gonna pay for it. Quit trying to drag everyone else down with you.

For many Israelis there may be difficult choices ahead.. Immigrate to the United States now, or wait and take the risk that the next administration will ban Israeli citizens altogether... How many Israelis with double nationalities or other options would really stay in Israel, if they knew there was no way out? Perhaps a good idea for countries which object to the current Israeli policies. Pass a law banning Israeli citizens from immigrating, and force dual citizens to make a choice. Perhaps that would make Israelis think a bit more before supporting unwise strategies. It's just too easy to be able to create a mess and then bail out when the going gets to tough!

Obama learned from the best... Heir Daley. This is typical Democratic Machine backroom shennanigans.... Emanuel, Axlerod, Daley and Obama all went to the same 'school'. That is why Chicago is #1 in highest taxes, #1 gun crimes despite a 30 year old obsolete gun ban, #1 in poor education test scores and certainly #1 in crime and graft (sorry New Orleans, you're second.)

JEWISH AMERICAN PROGRESSIVES DON'T CARE THAT HAMAS AND OILYBAMA WANT TO STAMP OUT ISRAEL, THEIR LOCK-STEP POLITICS HAVE THEM PICKING HITLER OVER THEIR RELIGION..........HOW MANY OTHER HOLLYWOOD JEWS ARE DOING THE SAME............OFFLMFAO

What percentage of Jews supported obama in '08? ..... just sayin .....

First of all let me say I'm sorry a bunch of morons in America voted for this anti-Semite Obama. Secondly, there are many REAL AMERICAN Christians here that will gladly defend Israel even against an attack from the Anti-Christ Obama

Obama's hatred of the Jewish people and support of Islamic interests was well documented before the elections and, yet, the Jewish people voted overwhelmingly for him.

Does not matter what obama does, the ONE TRUE GOD is in control of all things great and small, seen and unseen. His will be done and all for His glory: Jesus Christ, the King of kings, Lord of lords.

Yea, of course obama is talking to hamas, he hates israel, he really hates israel. And I for one am very sorry on behalf of my country. We were duped by a radical, leftist undercover muslim. I'm afraid y'all are on your own Israel, your tiny nation surronded by enemies and now you have another in the white house.
