we can only trust and rely on ourselves.
4. Obama
Esther ,   Jerusalem   (03.12.12)
It's time to call out to Hashem. And thank him for showing us that he is the only one we can trust.
5. To #2
Counter Punch ,   Australia   (03.12.12)
Most people HATE israel, that's a fact. People are tired of the lies and wars and deception that Israel creates always pretending to be the victim. Enough already, grow up.
6. Curious, isn't it?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (03.12.12)
The entire United States Fifth Fleet is anchored off Jeddah, protecting the vile Saudi regime. If Obama is concerned about oil prices, why doesn't he simply instruct the Saudis to increase production and cut prices? One would think that the Saudis owe the United States at least that much. One also must wonder why Obama is so reluctant. Perhaps the interests of the United States are not foremost in his mind.
7. Wrongheaded thinking. Forget waiting on the Republicans
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (03.12.12)
as there's real doubt as to whether they'll win or not. Bibi understands this completely and will act accordingly.
8.  no doubt!
oded ,   the us of A   (03.12.12)
obama's reelction bid(god forbid!), depends on israel playing nice and not rocking the world's economies. a stike on iran, will curtail his reelection bid, ad expose obama for what he is-- a trojan moslem implant in our midst, who hates america as much as he does israel! and our ignorant, naive, disilliusioned american jews wil continue to drink his 100% fact- free koolaid!pathetic!
9. Great Article!
Taz Man ,   USA   (03.12.12)
Right on all points! Like I've been saying all along: if this idiot gets re-elected...it's Katy-bar-the-door! May God...stop this possibility; for our and Israel's sake. God bless, Israel and His Jerusalem! A Christian Zionist
10. How many stupid Americans will
Freon P. Sandoz ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (03.12.12)
vote for a Republican who will start ANOTHER Middle East war to appease Israel? Not many. We learned our lesson with Iraq and are tired of being pushed around by Israel. No settlement freeze? Fine; have fun dealing with a nuclear Iran. We in the US will just sit back and watch the fun this time!
11. Forget about the democratic party
Isac   (03.12.12)
and Obama. They are bad for Israel and a bunch of loosers and appeasers. I don't see the nice America with loosers such as Obama, Wasserman-Schultz, Pelosi, and Reed. I like to see again a America which does not see a reason to apologize at any occassion for the smallest possible reason. I want to see again a proud, steadfast and prosperous America where all individuals rely on themselves, study and work hard and feel great to be American again!
12. Obama could have supported the Iranian people
Michael   (03.12.12)
in 2009 when there was voter fraud. he didn't even help the Iranian people get their Freedom. Why would would he wage a war to "protect" Israel's right to live? Start Praying to the one above.
13. 100% correct
tiki ,   belgium   (03.12.12)
I'm sure that the Israeli leaders understand this as well as we do. Question if the Jewish American voter (those who want good for Israel) does.
14. How many stupid Israelis will
TaylorT ,   Earth   (03.12.12)
...believe this article? Such little children...
15. obama-iran
yosef yankelev, Phd ,   Coral Springs, USA   (03.12.12)
Israeli 2 - You are right 100% - Yishar Koach. Combined with the cowardly Israeli government and implacable hatred of our neighbors the Jewish state is getting ready for the second Shoah - I am an Israeli too, have written on this subject for years and am throwing in the towel. Down with Galut mentality - Jewish politicians playing games like children, while the house is already on fire.
16. Yup. Remember O's Bluff on Lybia, Bin Laden, etc, etc?
Loving ,   Washington, DC   (03.12.12)
Yup. Remember O's Bluff on Lybia, Bin Laden, etc, etc? Oh, never mind.
17. who says republicans will attack?
thomas ,   germany   (03.12.12)
the republicans are talking big but if they gain power in the usa they will face the same problem as obama does a war will lead to thousands or ten thousands of deaths it will double the oil price it can lead to a lot of chaos why didnt israel attack why didnt bush attack? because it will be a mess
18. #10 Exactly
esnuffnstl ,   USA   (03.12.12)
If Israelis aren't going to do the bare minimum for peace with the Palestinians (while continuing to whine that it's all the Palestinian's fault) then they can deal with Iran by themselves. The US is Israel's only remaining ally, and if Israelis don't value the relationship, then they can see how they like it without US money, military hardware, are protection at the UNSC.
19. Obama
MJ   (03.12.12)
Dear Esther, Holy Holy is the Lord of Host; yes lets call out to HIM only and HE will do. HE is faithfull and HE is CHAI VE KAYAM AMEN!!!
20. Republicans
MJ   (03.12.12)
No doubt Obama is going to win elections again; you just have to follow each one of the republicans and listen towhat they say (but really listen), there is no consistency, they are just attacking obama instead of bringing a real political option to americans. Of course obama is going to win; there is no one standing in front of him. I'm so sorry americans couldnt bring up a real candidate to stand in front of obama and make obama become a mouse. But the living G.OD will do, HE is using obama for HIS own purpose and plans. In HIM we trust!
21. obama article
Dave Blevins ,   Deer Park,Wa., USA   (03.12.12)
Most everyone I know wants to remove this incompetent person from our government. And we are looking forward to that in a few months. I have to say to you Israel, that my family and I are with you, as well as all of our church members here. Obama is our worst president ever, and I hope he will be removed quickly. Glory be to God.
22. coming from australia
#5   (03.12.12)
the land of the lazy - that only care about barbecues/vacation and beer -keep quiet. nothing happens in your country. the most popular Tv show is the fashion station.
23. # 20 - Republicans
Yosef Y ,   Coral Springs, USA   (03.12.12)
Well said, MJ AMEN VE AMEN !
24. horing is wrong and a weakling
alexi   (03.12.12)
horing runs around begging the US. israel can do its own fighting. Obama will not attack iran not because he is a weakling like carter was. he is not. But in his core, he is oriented to moslems and arabs. He didn't sit and listen to kalidi's carefully packaged ph.d. lies for years over family dinners or listen to his priest's racial rants against jews for nothing. Obama does not care for israel which is reflected in him telling jewish leaders they should think reflect on what israel has to do ie concessions. shimon peres, ehud barak and ehud olmert, the 3 do nothings have harmed israel forever with their precedent setting concession offers while demanding of the arabs that they only concede on peace.
25. Obama is on Iran's side.
Chaim ,   Israel   (03.12.12)
Iran's genocidal leaders know their friends. That is why they regularly praise Obama. Obama is on Iran's side. That explains his hateful attitude towards Israel and his fawning over Iran.
26. Obama Does NOT Have Israel's Back
Tom Johnson ,   Clearwater, USA   (03.12.12)
You're catching on!
27. #5 correction
Mike ,   St Albans, UK   (03.12.12)
most hateful people hate Israel - and you are evidently one of them
28. Look in the mirror Israel under Bibi. Don't blame US & Obama
Michael ,   California, USA   (03.12.12)
29. obama
Rose ,   Tulsa USA   (03.12.12)
Impeachment articles in congress for approval. Lets hope this goes somewhere other than the trash.
30. I hope he is bluffing!
Sheik, Rattle & Roll ,   USA   (03.12.12)
America needs another war like I need a hole in my head. It is about time that others step up. Israel can blame itself for Obama and America taking a step back. Who the hell does BIBI think he is waltzing into America like he owns the place trying to dictate our foreign policy, telling us when to spend our money, get our soldiers killed and possibly "F" ing up our slowly recovering economy. I never seen such arrogance in my life. He needs to MAN-UP and fight his own battle and leave us the "F" alone. If Iran attacks us we will tear them a new "A" hole other than that we will fight on our own terms if we feel threatened.
