1. What if Obama gave a speech
A ,   Belgium   (03.11.13)
and nobody came?
2. another lie by obama
jerome ,   basalt, colorado   (03.11.13)
he claims to be against torture and yet he will torture 600 students at the same time.
3. A "Cairo Speech" for Jerusalem, to kick off Jewish Spring
Steve Benassi ,   Silver Bay, MN USA   (03.11.13)
A push for a peaceful end to land dispute, with UNSC '67 borders, 2 States, 1 Country, 6 million Jews, and 9 Million Palestinians (3 million outside refugees)
4. Obama's newest PR stunt
Cipora Julianna Kohn ,   z   (03.11.13)
obama refuses the invitation by the knesset to give his speech, thus insulting all israelis and the entire israeli leadership. instead, obama will give a speech at a convention center in front of 400 journalists and 600 handpicked students. it is obvious that obama is not speaking to israelis, but to an echo chamber of mass media and carefully selected supporters. the spin will follow directly after the speech.
5. I would never want to hear Him speak !.
Arn. ,   Sweden.   (03.11.13)
.The False oppinions of the Usefull Idiots, does not come with anything new and profitable to the World. Arn.Sweden.
6. Luck: very bad word-choice!
tom ,   tel aviv   (03.11.13)
7. Benassi #3 I see you're cooking the books
Jake   (03.11.13)
with fake numbers (kind the like the bi-weekly "economic data" churned out by the US Dep't of Labor at the behest of the big boss). And be careful what you wish for, Benassi. The Arab Spring resulted in an Islamist state in Egypt there minorities are no longer welcome. Would you really accept the results of a Jewish Spring?
8. Who invited Obama to make such a speech?
Jake   (03.11.13)
In fact, who invited him at all?
9. Make sure meek and gullible students are picked :-)
Harry Wright ,   UK   (03.11.13)
Obama does not like to be contradicted and he detests people who do not share his views or fall for his spin.
10. #3 I'd rather see a "Native American" spring
A ,   Belgium   (03.11.13)
All Native American lands returned to their rightful owners, starting in Silver Bay, Minnesota. Descendants of the Europeans who stole, cheated and killed to acquire these lands will be treated as well, or not so well, as the Native American owners decide.
11. #7 Benazzi wouldn't mind seeing every Jew dead
A ,   Belgium   (03.11.13)
and Israel overrun by moslem hordes.
12. all his speeches sound trhe same. we americans are so bored
(03.11.13)
with all his similar identical speeches. ignorance, ineptness, laziness, etc.. no teleprompter, he fails miserably. his speeches are memorized and read of a teleprompter. nothing original, nothing new and nothing groundbreaking. pure lazy, inept, ignorant, narcissistic golfer community organizer. he may have taken american youth, but israelis are way too smart and much more discerning than the common ignorant uneducated american.
13. 600 lucky students to hear Obama speak in Jerusalem
John ,   Soap Lake USA   (03.11.13)
You don't have to be lucky to listen to this man lie and distort the truth to make himself look good, just watch the American news and newspapers you can see it and read it every time the liar opens his mouth.
14. 3
(03.11.13)
please give israeli jews more credit than the boot licker american jews. israeli jews live with the reality on the ground and laugh at this president's awful mid east tragedies due to his inept foreign policies. israelis know a liar and obfuscater when they see one. they are not as gullible and ignorant and stupid as most of the american electorate and public. they know who lies and who is honest and they pay more attention to actions rather than words. obama's actions do not amplify his words and israelis from the small man on the street all the way to israeli politicians know who obama is. there is no way in hell obama will ever pull the wool over israelis' eyes as he pulled it over the ignorant masses in the usa. israel is on to him and no amount of flowery speeches will ever make him a serious or anything resembling intelligence with the israeli public. so, no, benassi, israelis, compared to you are way to smart. they can smell an inept inexperienced nobody when they see one. it wont make a bit of difference if he gave 1,000 speeches in israel. we know who is a zero and who we should listen to and respect. obama is a zero and very unrespectable in israel and as a matter of fact, other nations just hold their bellies laughing at this inept community organizer.
15. Obama is..
Moshe the prophet ,   Jerusalem   (03.11.13)
He sure is a coward if he does not have the guts to speak in the Knesset, something that even Sadat did as a former enemy of Israel. Obama is dead scared that the people of Israel will tell him what they think about Obama. Maybe he should bring his handpicked students himself. That would sure make the visit a success.
16. why lucky? sad to be his stage for his anti-Israelism.
uli ,   Jerusalem   (03.11.13)
17. Left Wing Students
Bill Stein ,   USA   (03.12.13)
Probably either radical Arabs and Left Wing Students were invited.
18. Facebook "contest" so that they can…
Colorado ,   USA   (03.12.13)
pick the best looking ones (with a few uglies for 'realism') as the backdrop photo op for Obama. They also will pick the ones giddy with slobber over the leader of the Fourth Reich, I mean, the leader of the Stalinist Left, I mean the pretend president of the US, I mean …all of the above. Forget speaking before the elected reps of Israel (that would legitimatize Israel). just make a campaign stop for the freebie accolades from the impressionable as he reaches for that media created "star quality" which serves to cover up his true intent.
19. dont forget to bring a pillow
zionist forever   (03.12.13)
An Obama speech is boring it will probably just be comprised the usual America stands side by side with Israel and and believes in a 2 state solution with the creation of a palestinian state co existing peacefully with Israel. Usual stuff you hear from all American politicians. If it was going to be a speech about his golf skills now that might be interesting and worth going to listen to but the average I love Israel speech boring.
20. lucky?..i would not want to listen to obama
JL   (03.12.13)
even if i was being paid
21. Once in a lifetime event? Pure evil comes way!!!
Taz Man ,   USA   (03.12.13)
The sickening love-affair continues, as Obama's godless sycophants' worship at their black messiah's feet. The Israeli leadership should be ashamed of themselves for their acquiescence to the wishes of this anti-Semite (Muslim)! The fawning over the worst US president ever, defies logic and common sense. What can one expect from a mostly secular, godless society that Israel has become (just like my country)? God help us all! His chastising is coming; and, judgment for all those--Jew or Gentile--who seek to harm HIS land! Wake-up Israel and smell the evil that's coming your way!!!
