My husband says it would be news if Israel was not slaughtering Palestinians. It makes me weep.

The most recent Israeli attack on Gaza really sends the simplest of all messages. Obama gave them a blank check, as evidenced by his statements that to him, "Israel’s security is paramount" and his reference to "the extraordinary relationship, the special relationship between the United States and Israel." What does one do with a blank check? One fills in the desired amount and cashes it, which is what Israel did, using air strikes to tell the Palestinians that nothing of importance has changed with Obama. And they are correct. The good thing about not being a Democrat now is that at least I don't have to feel disappointed,,,,Ashamed, yes, but neither disappointed nor surprised.

Zionists, like the ones who have Israel around the testicles, are trying to take advantage of the political capital they think they've earned after the meeting with Obama. It sets the tone for the future. Harshness. In the name of God. And an American blind eye to it that would make Jesus weep. x
