President Obama wants the Israelis to release 1,000 terrorists…
The naive American President urged Israel today to release 1,000 terrorists in exchange for “peace” with the Palestinians.
Arutz Sheva reported, via Israel Matzav:
Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman said he could “guarantee” that arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti would not be released from prison in any deal to exchange terrorists for kidnapped IDF soldier Gilad Shalit. “We have no intention to free the head of the murderers, a person who has been sentenced to four life terms in prison. There are red lines, and this is one of them,” Lieberman said.
In response to U.S. demands that Israel free an additional 1,000-some terrorists as a “gesture” to Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas, Lieberman said that previous releases of Fatah terrorists “have not proven themselves. The Olmert administration did this several times and it did not work, and we do not plan to allow it to happen,” Lieberman said.

Would the fraud in the White House release Khalid Sheikh Mohammed to “insure peace” with the Muslim world? And, don’t be surprised if that demand is made before the circus trials in New York City! A dire warning will come – purportedly from Osama Bin Laden himself – and the President will get to see what the shoe feels like on the other foot.
This, in essence, is what he’s asking Israel to do and the answer is not just “no”….it’s HELL NO!
And if the Israelis refuse his request, will he withdraw American support? I believe this is his ultimate goal – to ratchet down the strong American support for Israel and this would be a basis for such a move.
By doing so, he’d receive many “bows” from the various heads of state in the Middle East and the instant disdain of the Israeli people.
Makes you really wonder why 70% of Jews in America actually voted for the man, doesn’t it?

Terencio commented:
Israel’s Prime Minister is now the leader of the Free World. Meanwhile, our leader critiques Afghani “corruption” which pales in comparison to his Chicago-style antics. May we survive through the next two elections. A vote against the Democrats is a vote for human rights, justice, and freedom.

This assumes that there are “the next two elections” — I’m not so confident.
No Man commented:
The taffiya prez may not be really bright, but he is not naive.
Each of his suggestions is a nail in the coffin of Israel, in particular, and the Enlightenment West, in general.
Dell commented:
No Man, you’re quite right.
What the fraud is doing is exactly what George Soros (MoveOn.org) is telling him to do and it’s well known how Soros feels about Israel, and he bought and paid for the American President, so now it’s time to dictate a little policy.
I’m not surprised at all to learn that the POTUS is suddenly making demands of Israel; his lips are moving but it’s George Soros pulling the strings from behind the curtain.

It’s freaking Thanksgiving. Does this administration ever take a breal from its nefarious activities??

Its a holiday weekend for many people so this will probably be missed by a lot of people. Leave it to this administration to dump its BS on Friday nights or holidays so most people wont see it.

Livnat: We’re in ‘the hands of a horrible US administration’
By REBECCA ANNA STOIL
A day after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu announced that the security cabinet had approved a partial moratorium on building in the West Bank, Sports and Culture Minister Limor Livnat launched an unprecedented attack on US President Barack Obama. Speaking at a Likud activists’ meeting in Beersheba, Livnat said that Israel had “fallen into the hands of a horrible American administration.”
“The administration isn’t what it once was; it is harder [on us],” she added.
Livnat offered her spin on Netanyahu’s decision to freeze the settlements, explaining that she felt “uncomfortable.”
“I know that the prime minister is in distress. The pressures are great, and it is not easy to stand up to the American president. I know what a campaign of tribulations he placed before the prime minister.”
Netanyahu’s office quickly denied any connection to Livnat’s comments. “The statements attributed to Livnat don’t reflect the prime minister’s opinion in any way,” the Prime Minister’s Office said in an official statement.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu has expressed many times his appreciation of the brave alliance between Israel and America that has continued during the Obama administration, and [the prime minister] thanks President Obama and the American administration for their commitment to Israel’s security and to achieving peace in the region.”
Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s critics in his own party remained largely silent Thursday, waiting for someone else to make the next move.
At least two Likud ministers – Diaspora Affairs Minister Yuli Edelstein and Environmental Protection Minister Gilad Erdan – oppose the move, as do a number of Likud MKs as well as a number of field activists.
“Freezing construction means freezing birth, continuing concessions and transferring Jews who want to settle the land of Israel. I will not lend a hand to a process that will ultimately endanger Israel’s security and will not bring peace any closer,” said Edelstein, shortly after Netanyahu announced the security cabinet’s decision during a dramatic Wednesday night press conference. But less than a day later, the minister was quiet, biding his time and watching the unfolding drama.
One official close to the minister, who is a resident of the Judean community of Neveh Daniel, said that Edelstein is particularly interested in gauging the reaction of Deputy Prime Minister Silvan Shalom. Erdan and Communications Minister Moshe Kahlon are also reported to be waiting to see what tack Shalom will take.
In the meantime Shalom is silent – and overseas. His office did not return any calls by The Jerusalem Post Thursday, and the Likud ministers and MKs who want to see if Shalom will take the reins of a right-wing rebel movement within the party were kept waiting.
In the months following Netanyahu’s speech at Bar-Ilan University, in which he mentioned for the first time the formula of “two states for two nations,” Shalom – who has historically represented the left wing of Likud – took a sharp turn, attacking the prime minister from the right.
At the same time, Minister-without-Portfolio Bennie Begin and Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya’alon, who were considered to be among the most right-leaning Likud ministers, both were at pains Thursday to explain why they supported Netanyahu’s decision to initiate the moratorium. Ya’alon said that the decision would relieve some of the pressure against Israel from the international community, while Begin emphasized the temporary nature of the moratorium in creating a window for progress.

Another day, another stupid Obama action. Everyday, just when you think it could not be any worse, it gets worse. You can tell a lot about Oprah by her infatuation with Obama. She’s easily impressed by superficial, high minded sounding platitudes which have substance attached. Obama is perfect for her and for many liberals I know.
