With the obvious upset Obama feels at Netanyahu’s re-election, despite Obama’s subversive efforts to the contrary, the President may chose to not veto future anti-Israel resolutions by the United Nations Security Council, as suggested this week by White House spokesman Josh Earnest.
One might as well take he word ‘may’ out of the equation…
“What he’s pointing to is a [diplomatic] campaign underway… where the Palestinians have been going to the United Nations to declare a state unilaterally,” said Jonathan Schanzer, vice president for research.
So far, “the United States has shot it down,” Schanzer said.
The United States has chosen to block U.N. involvement in the Arab vs. Israel fight because it prefers the Israeli government and local Arab leaders negotiate a peace deal that creates two independent states, Earnest said at the midday press conference.
But, he said, “what has now changed… [is that Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu] has indicated that they’re not committed to that approach any more.”
“If that’s the case, it means we need to rethink what our approach is going to be,” Earnest said.
If Obama refuses to use the U.S. veto, the security council could declare the Arab territories alongside Israel to be an independent state, complete with an army.
But “the Palestinians are not prepared [and soon] would be at war with Israel,” Schanzer predicted. A new Arab state “would be a recipe for conflict, for just a whole chain of events,” he said, partly because the Palestinian Arabs are already divided into two rival armed groups.
“I don’t know what [Obama] is doing… it is incredibly difficult for me to understand what the strategy is,” Schanzer said. “Part of it is personal [but it also] appears to be an attempt to punish the Israeli public for putting Netanyahu back into power again,” said Schanzer.
But Obama’s pressure on Netanyahu also serves to weaken Netanyahu’s strong public objections to Obama’s pending strategic deal with Iran. That deal would leave Iran’s Israel-hating Islamic theocracy with the funding, ability and legal right to build a large force of nuclear weapons by as early as 2025.
can t have his way wah wah
hamas is a real problem in the middle east and Isreal has the God given RIGHT to defend itself at the expense of hamas. Anyone including the president who supports hamas is no more than a traitor to humanity!
He supports a group of people for statehood who themselves are united, only, in erasing Israel from the map. These palestinian groups are not agreed on form of government and Obama still supports them to form a state from people who themselves do not agree on anything, but, to destroy Israel. And, Obama resents Israel because they have the instinct of self-preservation?
“He” may allow? Exactly what power does he think he has? Told you he is insane
I will say this about Obama,he has a ton of nerve!A ton of nerve that is perhaps the result of fused circuits in his brain.Obama is like the sorcerers apprentice,he casts his spell & fouls up what he is trying to do.So far he has,through his actions,unintentionally:
1)Gone a long way in discrediting & neutering the political left in Israel,something that BIbi should be happy about!
2)He has betrayed the Sunni Arab oil states by favoring Iran.Because of this these Arabs are working more closely then ever with Israel,maybe a long term limited rapprochement can be worked out in the future.
3)France may torpedo the negotiations with Iran because of intense Sunni Arab financial pressure,France does a lot of business with the oil sheikhs.
4)The Saudi’s & their allies have cratered the price of oil in an effort to bring down the Iranian regime,this may also crater the oil industry & the financial markets in America!
Obama may believe that he is a world class schemer & conspirator,but the facts show that he is a minor league player on the world stage!
such an $#%&!@*hole
Wouldn’t it be so cool if Prime Minister just backhanded O?
obama has to GO GO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama doesn’t have a clue as to what is happening in the world… he is like a petulant child who wants it his way and is throwing a temper tantrum.. Grow up!
Obama acts like a spoiled brat, actually a no nothing.
Where …? Irack…Palestine…? He is looking Bibi Neck…!!! Jesus.
