do you think that Israel will demilitarize, if the Palestine state demilitarizes?

I hope so! That is why we voted for Obama. First the Jews demilitarize and then...

Mr. Obama has exhibited hostility towards Israel, its elected officials, its government and its ministries and towards Israel's courts and their decisions. Mr. Obama, in so doing, has insulted and humiliated time and again not only the prime minister of the national home of the Jewish people but the Jewish people as a whole by indirectly questioning the legitimacy of Israel's right to exist and by putting down some of the Jewish people's most important symbols of renewed Jewish sovereignty in the Jewish people's ancestral homeland. Indeed, Obama, despite being perceived abroad as "progressive", has taken a racist stand against the Jews and only against the Jews by insisting that Jews, only because they are Jewish, may not reside in certain parts of town...!! This racist demand passed from the world in the United States more than half a century ago in a formal way. Yet, the "progressive" Obama and his "liberal" right hand person, Clinton, have demanded and continue to demand, against Israel's Supreme Court decisions, that Jews must refrain from moving into neighborhoods of Israel's capital city, Jerusalem, DC (Jerusalem, David's City). Netanjahu's quarrel and indeed the people of Israel's quarrel is not with America and the American people. It is however with the temporary president of the United States, Barack (derived from the Arabic Barakah) Hussein Obama and with his mentor, Rev. J. Wright. Isn't time Obama apologized for his hostile attitude towards Israel and the Jewish people...??!!

Ms. Azulay I deeply hope that you did NOT write this ridiculous article as its entire content is UNTRUE. Benjamin Netanyahu did study law (he studies POL at Harvard); further, he was the ONLY one who claimed that Obama is going to be the next US President. How could you write "is this black man going to run for Presidency?" IT'S AN ABSOLUTE LIE. I was hoping for a much reliable source of news article to learn and enrich my mind today. YNET, you disappointed me!

Barakah Hussein Obama wants to surrender Israel to the Muslims. So what do you exactly mean by "cooperation"?

Orly Azoulay wrote: "In Israel, we saw the emergence of a stereotype whereby Obama is a weak and naïve president who curries favor with the Arabs, has no understanding of foreign policy, and makes rookie mistakes...." Mr. Obama is indeed a weak and a naïve president -- or is his his hatred for Israel's Jews is heart-felt? -- who curries favor, not with Arabs but with Muslims and Muslim-Arabs - there is an important distinction here. I cannot say, he and his administration have no understanding of foreign policy. That Obama is making costly mistakes is incontestable. Let's examine the "revolutions" Obama "quietly led." 1) Sanctions (severe or not) imposed against Iran are all but worthless. The Iranians will move forward willy nilly, developing nuclear weapons unimpeded. Only military force will deter Iran. Nothing else will dissuade the Iranians from their goal. All else is delusion. 2) I can neither commend nor condemn the firing of General McCrystal. What Obama does in this respect matters not to me. There is an attitude of disrespect for Obama's leadership within the military because Obama himself engenders no respect. If I had an American son of military age, I would do everything in my power to dissuade him serving under this terrible Commander in Chief. 3) The president and his people will go out of their way in order to make Netanyhu feel good for one reason and one reason only. Because Netanyahu is meeting with this bitter foe -- this known enemy of Israel -- July 6, 2010 (a mere four months shy of the mid-term November elections) rather than November 6, 2010. Obama and his people know they may be in trouble come November. An on-going spat with Israel's prime minister over a Jews' right to build new home or an apartment or an addition to an existing home or apartment in Israel's capital may not play well publicly for the president and his party. 4) The White House decided to change the tone because they realize, by yet again humiliating Netanyahu, it only serves to diminish (not help) Obama's anti-Israel Congressional supporters' chances come November. "This could be Netanyahu’s finest hour, should he have the inner strength to" confront - and if necessary, to quarrel with - Obama on his racist, bigoted, anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-Islamic jihad policies. I am not holding my breath.

With four months to the mid-term elections it is Bibi that should be doing the demanding.

not Superman, flippin moron.

Obama can't be trusted at all. The EU can't be trusted at all. The World is at war with Israel so be it. Israel needs to walk away from peace talks and develop a policy of Mutual Assured Destruction against any country that threatens Israel existence either through economic diplomatic or military means. The policy should be aimed at any country also that threatens a Jewish population. http://ralphsrant1.blogspot.com/2010/03/israeli-options-mutual-assured.html

That there is a large remnant of G-d fearing, G-d loving gentile's who are not one bit happy with the evil that is sitting in power over our nation and in the rest of the world, nor will we sit by and do nothing. Come November we will exceed at the ballot box and a new voice will be voted into office that will be a voice of G-d loving people rest assure. As many that do hate you for being Jewish, and that the Holy G-d of Israel has brought you back to your land just as it was written some 2500 years ago, it is also written that the world will not let go and let the Jew live in true peace for they the world all lie and wait to deceive. There are many of us who are praying to G-d for the peace of Jerusalem and for your Prime Minister to be bold and full of courage and wisdom, to stand up in the face of this wicked and ever growing dark world that calls evil good and good evil, with boldness and love in his heart for the Jewish people say... "NO, we will not stand down and be lead like sheep to the slaughter"! Never again you cry, do not forget what happen the last time you forgot the words of Moses and became like the rest of the world...It will happen again if you let your walls down... "do not do it"! The G-d of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob never slumbers or sleeps and is watching over you Israel, you are not back in the land after 2000 years in exiled just to be rooted up and be throned back to the wolfs and be slaughter again, Stand and fight for you freedom just as my forefathers did in 1776 and with the grace of G-d as it was given on to us then to be free men from then the of King of England, may the LORD free you from the Kings of this world, and give back to you all that was promise to you by His Holy Covenant. We love you Israel, never again!

Obama made mistakes, he is not only naive but has spent 2 years of his four year terms electioneering... he has been president for only two years. And in the time he has been pushed into dealing with Iran, on Afganistan, on terrorism. And yet he bungles. The American economy is dong poorly. It is a sinking ship under Obama who scares banks, investors, and next year most Americans will lose their health coverage as prices will sky rocket. There is no "new spirit" in the US unless you are talking about the pro-Israel, All-American Tea Party movement. And it is the opposition party that Netenyahu should focus on. Because Obama has only two more years to electioneer before he loses the next election.

wouldn't recieve much support among the mostly brianwashed neo cons here.

who made the remark about the "black man", but a supposed "senior minister".

A board certified U.S. pschiatrist, who has treated thousands of patients, named Dr. Lyle Rossiter, has written a scholarly book in which he lcogently argues liberalism a mental disease. Articles like this one strengthen Rossiter's already strong arguments. The author urges Bibi to surrender to the most hostile U.S. president Israel has ever faced! A president who always does what is harmful for Israel and America. Liberalism is a mental disease. Who will find the cure?

Only a Fool would cooporate with Obama, he is a muslim, and against Israel. We watch him up close and personal, he is a fraud.

Not hardly. He's got great PR and they've basically respun his life, but I can tell you that he was a failure at Harvard. Law review? LOL! Obama needed TUTORING! I know. I was there. And don't overlook the fact that he was not recruited. Not by a first-rate firm (of course), not by a second-rate firm, not even by a third or fourth-rate firm. Doesn't that tell you something? To all the lawyers out there, it speaks volumes. He needed three shots at the bar exam, too. Most of us Harvard Law School grads didn't need more than one. The man's a phony and a fraud. Most of the voting populace in the United States have figured that out.

I have rarely read an article, supposedly of reasoned political thought, that was such complete nonsense. Hasn't the author noticed that the reality is Obama has been neutered by the Washington system, has failed in every foreign policy endeavor including but restricted to N. Korea, Iran, China anf of course the Middle East. He has cast off allies like the Czech Republic and other European States with his haste to ingratiate himself with Russia. At home, the Healthcare plan , even in its watered down version, is going to be fought in about 40 States Court system. His financial rescue is staring defeat in the face. Obama is the weakest President for many years and makes Carter look successful. If Netanyahu were really shrewd, he would avoid anything that enhances Obama; certainly no photos, no joint conferences, absolutely no smiles . Obama needs this meeting not Netanyahu.

With all respect to the USA, this administration does not care at all about the future of the Hebrew state. There have been many differences between the US and Israel, but these days, President Obama puts pressure on Israel, for its own agenda - pressures which would lead to a destabilization of the area, and make Israel weaker. I would expect this kind of article from Gideon Levy style-wannabe writers, Haaretz - not from Yediot journalists!

Whether or not Obama -has- the right to be elected is separate from whether or not he has -proven- he has the right. In point of fact, Obama has NOT proven he is eligible. He has NOT presented a long form birth certificate, and he has spent 1.5 million dollars to prevent anyone from seeing it in court. The certificate presented on the Internet was obtainable very easily by persons born anywhere in the world. I have one for Sun Yat-Sen that 'proves' he was born in Hawaii when he was 8 years old. Obama's FIRST PHONE CALL as a US President went to Abbas. His FIRST Interview went to Al-Arabiya. He made numerous references to the "Holy Quran" to the audience at Riyadh, and publicly mocked the Torah and the NT. He claims the US is no longer a "Christian" nation, and also claims the US is one of the largest Muslim nations on Earth. How dare you marginalize objective observation by calling that a "stereotype"? It is FACT. Are you suggesting that with 1.5 years in the Senate and 1 year as President that somehow he is a "seasoned" politician? He HIT the banks? You mean by handing them $1,000,000,000,000.00 with ZERO disclosure whatsoever? Oh please please please punish me the same way. Put the military in order? *Who* is Barak Obama to dismiss a General like Stan McChrystal? The sum of BHO's life will never match the honor of a wart on Stan McChrystals toe. Obama is simply too narcissistic to tolerate criticism, period. Did Stan disobey orders? NO. He only made a social comment that reflected the sentiments of a great many Americans. New leaf with Russia? Do you mean the spy flap of this week or looking the other way when Russia sells nuclear reactors and S300's to Iran? The 'sanctions' are mostly unilateral with invitations for others to join in, while Iran simply creates another set of business fronts to continue as usual. I challenge you show how any US sanction impeded Iran in any way, at any time. Even Ahmadinejad laughs at them, and it would probably be more productive if Khameni wrote the sanctions himself. Let me 100% clear on this: Barak Obama is the greatest failure in the history of the US Presidency. Rather than protect the borders of his own country he takes a State to court for defending itself because the Federal Government is derelict in its duty, and furthermore, his unflinching and unconditional support for every Islamic entity regardless of legitimacy will lead directly and inevitably to war. There is no historical example where appeasement of a hostile combatant resulted in anything other than escalation of the hostiles intent. Anyone pursuing policies like Obama's, should have the word "Rookie" tattooed on his forehead.

this mediocre ,at best ,article highlites orly's lack of fundumental understandings of american policies and inner -politicla sturrgle , present time. obama is a vehemnt anti- israel, whose entire dogma is to help his moslem brethren get rid and weaken israel. obama is a radical trojan horse who wishes to radically replace the usa we all know well, with a socialist- utopian class less society in wihch his govt. plays the only role. he will lure bibi with empty promises and smooth jive talking ,but at the end of the day, obama ain't our mama and he can go f himself! orly, check your facts first, before publishing this skewed rubbish!

Just come out and admit that you dont like Obama because he is BLACK!!!! Your points are weaker than the chances the NJ Nets have in landing Lebron James. Lets discuss your idiotic babbage: 1. You mock Obama for sanctioning Iran and not using our military to take out Irans nuclear capabilities. Yet this is the same path that your beloved worthless piece of manure president GW Bush took. You are stupid hypocrite. 2. The military is not a political entity. I dont care if the current army is 90 percent Republican and hates his guts, they are serving the president and if they do not like his politics they can leave when their terms of service are up. Everyone knows that the military is conservative, but I bet if you were to poll minority soldiers they would overwhelmingly be positive about Barack Obama, if you were to poll whites they would be more negative. Why is this? I think you know why. 3. The fact that Democrats might lose seats in Congress is obvious. Most presidents lose mid-term elections. Just ask George Bush. 4. The White House is only changing the tone because they want to give Netanhayu one last chance to prove that he is actually willing to end this conflict or whether he is playing games to delay this conflict forever.

Oh, please: what has the man's race to do with it? Every time someone expresses criticism of Obama, someone like you starts ranting about racism. With the exception of a few rednecks, I don't think anyone gives a damn that Obama's black - just that his policies are dangerous or failures.

what can be used when someone has nothing to contribute: 1) So Obama's great claim to fame is to follow one of Bush's clearly failed policies - I see this is change you can believe in! 2) How exactly did you deal with the point that Obama engenders no faith in his ability? If you don't think the sun shines out the backside of Obama then you are a republican Klan member? Great argument. 3) GWB won a republican majority in 2003 and increased it in 2005. Obama is going to lose his... But only racists care about facts right? 4) How exactly is Netanyahu going to "end this conflict"? When has Hamas, Hizbollah or Iran signaled they have the slightest interest in making peace with Israel? Retard.

What the hell is this guy smoking? Obama is anti Israel to the core. he sat and listened to that racist anti-semite Jeremiah Wright for 20 years. Wright just last week unleashed another barage against Israel and the Jews. You want to know who a politician is, don't listen to what he says now, look at what he has been and who he has associated with foe the past 20 or thirty years.

what most of us, American Jews, feel toward our President. He has betrayed us in a way that few in recent memory have. And if he or his party ever wants us to be supportive again he should apologize for the hostility he has exhibited toward the only national home we Jews have, Israel.

She is very good and helpful but her motives are for bashing anti right establishments. The moment she senses anti left views, she will not even remember you exist. All her articles reflect this. She is part of the Dayan, Lapid gang. LOL

This article literally made me ill. The author has no clue how severely Obama has destroyed the U.S. economy. He totally mishandled the Gulf of Mexico oil spill (biggest environmental disaster in history) - affecting our southern states. In California, we have a record 22 percent unemployment (according to the liberal L.A. Times), people are going out of business and there are vacancy signs everywhere. In all 50 states, no one (except the government) is hiring new employees and everyone is very afraid what will happen when taxes go up (a lot) on January 1, 2011. Meanwhile, the cost of health care is increasing by double percentage points (it was already expensive before BHO made it worse). Senior citizens are losing Medicare benefits and, in some cases, their doctors - who are retiring early because the gov't is slashing their reimbursements (and they don't want to work for "Obamacare"). There is not enough space here to describe all the damage this president is doing to America or to our foreign policy. However, one needs to be blind not to see the increase in anti-Semitism and anti-Israel sentiment since Obama was elected and started appeasing the enemies of western democracy.
