Obama on Zionism and Hamas

Obama on Zionism and Hamas

"JG: Do you think that Israel is a drag on America’s reputation overseas?

BO: No, no, no. But what I think is that this constant wound, that this constant sore, does infect all of our foreign policy.

Thanks for the information. I did mess up. I feel bad. I did write to Nuk. I want to do the right thing. Thanks again.

We are just stupid people that make mistakes in typing a word. They do the same thing to me. I just laugh.Smiling

Of course they don't make mistakes. Funny they only point it out when they don't like what we are saying.

God Bless America, that's what I have to say. Obama will beat Hillary. Hillary didn't have all the ties with people that live their lives different in a different country. She knows we don't have 57 states.Laughing out loud

I think Nuk was refering to Travis' post.

Maybe the "sore" comment also refered to the unquestioning support we give to Isreal in the face of terrorist actions on their part. The Isreali government's hands are not free of blood, but you hardly ever see any elected official in the US say anything to address the harm they have done. Many of the groups fighting against Isreal are extremist and kill civilians, but they same can be said of the Isreali goverment. Unquestioning support of Isreal is bad for the US in relation to its image in the minds of Aarbs of much of the Western world as well. This type of support gives aid to terrorist groups who want to find excuses to hate the West.

What's an Isreali?

I can see you are a real expert on the Middle East since you don't even know how to spell the name of a country that is in the newspapers every day. Saying the Israeli government engages in terrorism sounds like something jihadist losers and David Duke would say, but it's not anything resembling fact.

Israel is not blameless as is no one in that cesspool called the Middle East, but to equate Israeli with terrorists pretty much ends any serious conversation.

Geez, so I mixed up the e and the a...I denounce and reject that spelling. I'm not the best speller the world's ever seen. However, my bad spelling doesn't mean that what I said wasn't true...I'm also not an expert on the Middle East, for all it's worth. Being an expert is no measure of the truth a person says. I can say that drunk driving is dangerous without being an expert on being drunk or driving or safety and it's still true, just as an example.

I equated actions. Killing civilians is killing civilians. It doesn't matter whether a state does it, or a groups of dummies (it's often hard to tell the difference between the two!). IsrAEl has done some horric things and the US has said little to nothing about it. This silence fuels tension in the Middle East and gives people reasons to hate the US. We give unconditional support to them and this is a BIG reason for hatred of the US in the Middle East and around the globe. This type of support for any ally is wrong.

NUK I am sorry for my comment to Beaver. I thought you were talking about him since he wrote the blog. I checked how Beaver spelled Israel and thought that's not wrong. I am sorry for that huge mistake on my part.

I seem to type fast. When I read it back I go fast also. I need to slow down.

Work keeps me busy, when I do take a break I am still going full speed. I do sometimes mess up on my spelling. I am going to have to tell myself slow down. Part of it is one of my jobs require typing. Maybe I am sick of typing by the time I get on here. I also have to read on my other job, it's pretty fast pace. I have to get it correct. I do need to use my check spelling. The other job I can't use my check spelling someone has already written the material. Again, I am sorry.

I don't know what you are apologizing for? I don't see any comments from you to Beaver and the comment I responded to was from someone named travisstrickland.

With each new post in your effort to turn this into the Fayette edition of WorldNutDaily, you reveal yourself as a bigger fool.

The "constant sore" quote does not refer to the Israeli state -- no matter how much the Hannitys and Limburgers of the world wish it did -- but rather to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The description is indisputable, unless of course you think the continual low-level war and the terrorism it has spawned are normal.

But thanks for linking to the interview. Everybody who thinks Obama is some sort of Marxist opium dealer who plans to export white slaves to Africa will be relieved (or perhaps disappointed) to see that he is actually pretty conventional on this topic.

Luckydog, help me understand something here.

Beaver quotes Obama's exact words, then provides a link to the entire interview/article, offers no commentary on Obama's words, and you feel justified at hurling meaningless insults like With each new post in your effort to turn this into the Fayette edition of WorldNutDaily, you reveal yourself as a bigger fool.

Do you really expect readers here to take your comments seriously?

Exactly who is the "bigger fool"?

Does plain unvarnished truth scare you that much?

Just curious.

OK, I'll help you understand, just this once. Read slowly, now.

It's my opinion -- are you with me? -- that the nature of Beavis's constant anti-Obama posts reveal him as a fool. F-O-O-L. Got it?

It's also my opinion -- stay with me here -- that the intent of Beavis's posting of the Israel quote was to paint Obama as someone who regards Israel as a "constant sore" when he actually said no such thing. He may not have counted on anyone actually reading the interview to which he linked, or he may be too dense to comprehend its content.

You can reread that a few times or ask an adult to explain if you find it too complex.

Yeah sure, someone is a fool because they actively oppose your political candidate.

Go back and read the man's post you dimwit and then keep trying to translate it to suit your braindead liberal agenda. You just showed everyone who the fool is.

but you forgot the second part of the quote. "...Conservatives skip all those useless steps, and go right to the sarcasm, insult, and innuendo!". Keep the faith.
