31. How about just removing Obama, who keeps proving
Zippy   (03.26.08)
that he has the "audacity" of audacity. He has turned out to be just another charlatan politician. I hope Oprah stays out of politics forever. How dismally sad...the field of presidential hopefuls...not an honest one in the bunch.
32. The real Obama is oozing out from behind the fake front
bernard ross ,   st. anns bay,jamaica   (03.26.08)
33. Maybe Mel Gibson is Obama's adviser
Eduardo Alvarez ,   Mexico DF, Mexico   (03.26.08)
Mel Gibson got himself into a lot of trouble for saying similar things. Maybe this advisor needs to check himself into rehab also.
34. Obama's black and white critics
Edelbert ,   USA   (03.26.08)
What does Obama gain from this avalanche of anti-Israel hate from these critics. Obviously Obama agrees with them. But what does he gain from these hate mongers? How does this further his bid for the Democratic nomination?
35. It doesnt matter
Armando ,   Denver, USA   (03.26.08)
Left-leaning Jews will still vote for Obama.
36. Jews should never vote Democrat!!
Avraham ,   los angeles, CA., U.   (03.26.08)
Every Democratic president was bad for Israel since after JFK. We had an anti semitic Carter, an Arafat loving Clinton - no way folks!!!
37. it all adds up
alan ,   Cape Lookout   (03.26.08)
read this http://tucc.org/upload/tuccbulletin_june10.pdf It is bulletin from Obama's church passed around during services that shows lost of lies were being said about Israel in Obama's church, including the one that says Jesus was a Palestinean. There is a tread that grows into a cloth when you weave the incidents together and it is not the cloak that a President of the US should be wearing. Obama picks an advisor who slams Israel and Jews in the US for supporting the only democracy in the Middle East and Obama picks a preacher who is spiteful against Israel. It is reasonable to conclude those he picks reflect his personal views. Jewish Democrats should vote for Clinton in the primary.
38. #1 -YNET and yellow journalism
Sean ,   Montreal, Quebec   (03.26.08)
I guess that is supposed to be some satirical comment? This report is little more than mud slinging that wouldn't even pass first edit in a high school journalism class in any respectable country. The author sets out to impugn the advisor's reputation with the implication that he suffers from a drinking problem. He then goes on to pander to peoples fears of the next pogrom, when in fact the general was only stating internal American decisions regarding foreign policy. Would Ynet have its readers believe that Americans must dictate their foreign policy solely on the wishes of Israel, or more specifically, that portion of the Israeli population that is comprised of the Jews? The general was only stating the problem of the dynamic and its implications at hindering peace. That Ynet would choose to stoop to such a base level of propaganda only serves to prove the general's points.
39. do your homework!
Steve   (03.26.08)
A vote for Obama by a Jew is the ultimate expression of ignorance and/or self loathing. His is not merely a case of guilt by association but in fact as reported daily by the press his campaign advisory committee is rife with serious Jew haters, handpicked by Obama. Although he has made unequivocal statements in support of Israel his anti semitic confederates suggest a different agenda. Although intelligent, young,and dynamic he is nonetheless the property of the far left, and no friend of the Jewish people or Israel. Welcome to politics as usual.
40. who's stupid enough to vote for obama?
gamba & pilpel   (03.26.08)
only blind, deaf and un-intelligent people. now bend over while i prepare to kick you in your butt! vote mccain! (us) vote dan gillerman! (isr)

42. The other side of his mouth has spoken!!
Chaya ,   Bat Yam, Israel   (03.26.08)
43. I guess mcpeak was jealous of the I.A.F.
jason white ,   afula,israel   (03.26.08)
Probably saw what the best pilots in the world can do. I guess he saw that he was a second or third rate pilot and it affected him. Too bad he joined forces with someone who has no experience in the military and will weaken the U.S. armed forces. But then again who knows why people will join together to hurt their country by trying to elect the worst possible choice.
44. The guy is telling the truth ,so SHUT UP all of you !

sean ,   europe   (03.26.08)

46. # 19 lol , great talkback .. thank you ..
(03.26.08)
47. liberal jews will vote democart,
Steve ,   USA   (03.26.08)
Liberal " open minded" jews have a lemming tendency to march into the ovens. They will vote for Obama if he's the Democratic nomenee regardless the potential for self destruction.
48. Obama and the General
Abraham Berman MD ,   Boynton Beach Fl   (03.26.08)
This again shows Obama's indifferance to the bigatry and bias of his advisers. Wake up and realise the danger Obama and Jimmy Carter represent to Israel and the Jewish People
49. is there big difference in the views
observer   (03.26.08)
Jews: what is good for the Jews is good for America. Obama: What is good for the Jews is not always good for America.
50. I SUPPORT AL PACINO FOR PRESIDENT
ATİLLA KARAGÖZOĞLU   (03.26.08)
51. Its about America not Israel
Simon ,   TA Israel   (03.26.08)
Surely his commitment should be to the American people, this election is not all about Israel and the Jews !
52. Finaly
(03.26.08)
Someone say the truth or at least his real opinion before he is in power not just before he leave . The Amricans should elect this one because he is ohnest and not afraid from the Zionist loby in America.
53. This is just a bitter, sad, lonely and senile old man
Johnny ,   Stockholm Sweden   (03.26.08)
His days are apparently over soon, just look at him. Let him leave earth and join with his german heroes of the 30's.
54. Dovy #19 - Why are you so nervous?
Johnny ,   Stockholm Sweden   (03.26.08)
55. Dovy and his sarcasm which is a form of hate
Doc Holliday ,   The South   (03.26.08)
People have a right to have their opinion against Israel, how that is expressed is a determining factor for antisemitism. Most people would agree to blame American Jews for a stalled peace process or as a main obstacle to Middle East peace is nonsense. To mention NY & Miami as the cause instead of the Pals who refuse to accept Israel's right to exist is antisemitic. The Myth of the Israeli lobby controlling the U.S. gov. or all banking, media etc. is just scapegoating not truth.
56. He Gets A Big Failure (F) For Judgement
Dave Levy ,   Burbank. CAUSA   (03.26.08)
There is another twist to all of this garbage worth considering., besides let's not get too involved. Arab Americans petition our govt in many ways for their agenda, which typically is anti-Israel. Black Americans exert pressure on legislators for their self-interests, as do Hispanics, etc. Jews are not monolithic even when it comes to Israel., some favor Likud some Meretz policies, some have no opinion. So far Obama has not met the good judgement test for Pres. His affiliations with the pastor, Louis Farrakhan's people, S. Powers, leftist types, black activists, Palestinian groups, strident anti-white talk, makes me shudder to think he could be in the oval office. I'm a McCain fan, through and through, a proud Zionist Jew who is for a strong(er) Israel, and against Islamo-fascism. Yes, we need change, more action and less talk in defeating our enemies, not the Obama variety however. Once Pres. the damage is done, remember. A vote for Obama (and Pelosi's leadership) is a recipe for a US disaster, big time. We don't want to fight Al Qaeda in our streets, better abroad (listen to what THEY said recently. Obama will retreat and bring defeat.
57. WOLFOWITZ - LIBBY - PEARL- FEITH = ANTI JEWISH THINKING
Andrew ,   Miami,FL   (03.26.08)
HISTORY WILL LOOK BACK AT THE BUSH PRESIDENCY AND SAY THAT THESE CHARACTERS WERE BEHIND BUSH' MOVES
58. Dovy #19 is Naturei Karta.
Jane   (03.26.08)
59. # 8 HS BULLSHIT
petra ,   USA   (03.26.08)
OBAMA IS ANOTHER MUSLIM SYMPATHIZER AND THIS AIDE ANOTHER PIT BULL FOR THE PALS. THE EXPOSURE OF THIS ANTI SEMITE IS ONLY TOLERATED BY A MUSLIM.
