1. Need one say it again?
A Jerusalemite ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (07.13.13)
Obama is a fool.
2. second thought - why does the US have to step in, where are
jo   (07.13.13)
all those very wealthy Arab nations help for their brothers?
3. Obama is really stupid
jo   (07.13.13)
This is a dumb ass move if ever i saw one and proves that Obama does not understand the middle east. will wanting to help, army islamic rebels will work for a time - until they turn on you. there will be no democracy in Syria, the ballot box will bring in just another autocratic islamic regime. Humanitarian aid to help those suffering would have been the better choice, safe havens, medical help, but weapons, more will die.
4. Mr Obama is following his own agenda!
Son Of Cyrus ,   UK   (07.13.13)
The deal between The West headed by USA and Soviet Empire was to dismantle the Soviet Communist Empire and remove the excesses and ugliness of Capitalism. The pyramid of the New World Order to be based on Religion, Free Market and Strong Security & Army. The idea was for TRADE between nations to help everybody's standard of living. Hence we have seen the rise of Political & Radical Islam which is the root of all the Middle Eastern Countries Problems and also the cause of issues between Israel and Arabs. Islam is not compatible with democracy even though is an Abrahamic Religion, where as Jewish and Christian Religions are as clearly implemented successfully in Israel. The Muslim Nations have to be educated and it will take a long time for them to realize the ills of Political Islam.
5. Obama is betting
Devorah   (07.13.13)
that the weapons he sends to the rebels will be used against Israel. Same with the fighter jets he is sending to Egypt.
6. Political Judaism & political Christianity
Mark ,   London, UK   (07.13.13)
Are neither any better than political Islam. Most Christian states have separated state and religion. From what I read on this site, Israel is in danger of allowing too much leeway to political Judaism. Fortunately there are sufficient seculars to block this for the time being. We also have tribal and clan loyalties but overall they tend to coalesce to a degree against external threats.
7. Oh come on, Devorah
Cameron ,   USA   (07.13.13)
What a dim, juvenile line of thought that was.
8. obama got his marching orders from his boss.
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (07.13.13)
Isn't it apparent who runs America? It is the Saudi King and his underling, obama rama yo momma. obama bows to a foreign potentate whose not our friend, isn't that against the law? KEEP BUILDING !!!!!
9. #7 - Well, fine, Cameron
Devorah   (07.13.13)
Then give me one good reason why Barry is so rabid about Syria and Egypt. What dogs does he have in these fights? And why? What do you suppose is his end game in each situation? He is not a builder, Cameron. He is a destroyer. Everything he touches turns to garbage. Would you agree with that? Would you agree that, through Kerry, he is attempting to force Israel to make obscene concessions to "palestine" while requiring nothing from same? Obama is no friend of Israel.

11. # 2 jo Funny you'd ask
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (07.13.13)
I just read an article sent me by a frined. Seems a professor studying the Muslim people found that their interbreeding has produced some horrific results. Lower IQ's night blindness, ( damned dangerous for Saudi Muslims as a whole, pilots trying to make night flights. ) Plus a laundry list of inherited illnesses and diseases. It made sense to me as their behavior is nuts. It stems from Mohammed's directives to marry another muslim and, they prefer to marry their first cousins. Eons of this behavior results in retardation, socially accepted anti social behaviors including; genocide, mental illnesses, physical illnesses, and on and on. It, combined with islam makes a deadly RX for death and uncounted medical costs and illnesses not any or which are curable. KEEP BUILDING !!!!
12. # 5 Devorah like obama is betting on democracy
BUILD BABY BUILD !!! ,   United States   (07.13.13)
working in the Muslim world which presently, is committing genocide.
13. To answer your questions Devorah
Dror ,   Haifa, Israel   (07.13.13)
Response is also for Cameron and Build Baby. Obama is a puppet of the money powers, the Saudis are amongst the major players. The main puppet masters pulling Obama's strings are the bankers, the Federal Reserve system. The families that control the central banking systems of the world. It is assumed that there are Jews amongst these families. Know this, they are all EREV RAV. None of them have Jewish souls. They are a menace to the entire world and they need to be exposed and overthrown, including the aristocracy of Europe they married into. Obama is a product of the CIA, CFR, TRI LATERAL COMMISSION, BILDERBERGS, BOHEMIAN GROVE, ROCKEFFELERS, ROTHSCHILDS. ETC...
14. Big Mistake
emanon ,   USA   (07.13.13)
Neither side is the "good guys". Either side will turn against the US once they are in power.
15. It would be nice if Obama was committed to America
Noodles ,   Coney Island   (07.13.13)
As opposed being committed to it's destruction.
16. Yes, and Obama is committed to the MB.
Harry Wright ,   UK   (07.13.13)
He is so committed, he is demanding that the interim Egyptian government release Morsi so he can cause more havoc in the place. His loyalty to the MB has no end. It is as if his presidential mission is to give them legitimacy, empower them and facilitate their objective to establish the caliphate. It sure looks like he is in bed with them and it sure looks like he supports terrorists.
17. Pres. Obama supporting Syrian Rebels
Malcolm Light ,   Cortegana Spain   (07.14.13)
Which group of rebels? They are now at each others throats and have started a second war in Syria.
18. To: Noodles at No. 15
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (07.14.13)
He's following his private agenda. Which is scurrilous. What he needs is to be committed IN America; not to America. He is incapable of being committed TO America. That would violate his personal agenda. Hussein Obama is ego on steroids. For no reason that anyone can discern. He is a running joke that isn't very funny; the most inept and incompetent president in American history.
19. Devorah #9
Cameron ,   USA   (07.14.13)
Look here, you know I'm sure as Hell no fan of Obama, but have a care not to let your active dislike of the man swamp the better side of your assessing. Leave the overboard raging & snarling to the Arab knuckleheads. He is, in my estimation, the most idealistic & supremely self-righteous liberal ever to take office. As such, he is to be truly watched, and his progressive agenda moves blunted or tamed down when possible. I have no time for this "Secret Muslim" and right arm of Satan forever plotting the downfall of the US, Israel, and Western civilization view that some indulge in here in talkback land. Keep it realistic and within bounds if you will.
20. #19 Cameron - FINE!
Devorah   (07.14.13)
I was not "raging & snarling." Obviously, I can leave that to you. You didn't answer my questions BTW.
21. #12 B3 - Exactly!
Devorah   (07.14.13)
22. #13 - Dror (another attempt)
Devorah   (07.14.13)
Dror, I answered your comment. Ynet, why are you trying to muzzle me? I only want Dror to know that I am not ignoring him.
