Israeli PM's In-Law Calls Obama Anti-Semite

“When an anti-Semitic president takes office in America – that is our test to say, ‘We won’t give up’.” –Hagai Ben-Artzi
Obama and his mentor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright
Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s brother in-law callled Obama an anti-Semite on Wednesday. Hagai Ben-Artzi explained that for 20 years Obama sat with Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who is anti-Semitic, anti-Israeli, and anti-Jewish.
YNet News reported, via Free Republic:
Hagai Ben-Artzi, the prime minister’s brother-in-law, called US President Barack Obama an anti-Semite in a radio interview Wednesday.
“When an anti-Semitic president takes office in America – that is our test to say, ‘We won’t give up’,” he told Israel Army Radio.
Ben-Artzi responded to US criticism of the construction in east Jerusalem and said Benjamin Netanyahu should learn from previous prime ministers. “Once the Americans tried to intervene in anything related to Jerusalem we told them one simple word: No,” he said.
“Jerusalem is the Israeli people’s capital and the capital of the State of Israel, and it is whole and united. For the first time in 2,000 years Jews can come freely to the Western Wall and the holy sites, and we will not concede even a millimeter. If you want to make a crisis over this, fine. This is not just Benjamin Netanyahu’s guiding principle, but rather that of the seven prime ministers who came before him.”
Ben-Artzi went on to explain why Obama disliked Israel. “Not only does he dislike the prime minister, he dislikes the people of Israel. For 20 years Obama sat with Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who is anti-Semitic, anti-Israeli, and anti-Jewish,” he said.
Netanyahu’s brother-in-law added that it was clear Obama agreed with Wright because he had remained in his congregation. “Think about it. If you had heard of someone who for 20 years sat in church and heard anti-Semitic sermons and didn’t get up to leave after two weeks, wouldn’t you think he identifies with it? As a politician running for presidency he had to hide it, but it comes out every time and I think we just have to say it plainly: There is an anti-Semitic president in America,” he said.
“Unfortunately this creates a difficult situation for Israel, but we will never give up our deepest interests – Jerusalem and our ties with it.”
Just last June, Wright said, “Them Jews aren’t going to let him (Obama) talk to me.”

Looks like President Obama took Samantha Powers advice to heart. Maybe he thinks an invasion of Israel could be justified?
A.W. commented:
Well, i think Bibi’s bro-in-law is not considering another possibility: that Obama is such a cynical politician he will sit through any spew if he thinks it will get him votes.
i mean by his logic, Obama is also a racist against white people. But one assumption that i make, that is hard to shake, is that everyone loves their mother. So given who his mother was, how could he possibly hate her or her whole race?
But of course which is worse? Sitting in Wright’s church because you believe his spew? Or not believing it, but not only sitting silent week after week listening, but then also exposing your children to it, too?
None of these answers exactly exhonerate him, you know?
kate commented:
Somehow that’s very satisfying. Now when someone finally admits how he really feels about white people we’ll be getting somewhere.
Militant Conservative commented:
It’s O.K. I don’t like him because of his ideas and character. I took the high road, sir, and I am being gratious in calling you that. Scraped more interesting stuff off the bottom of my shoes.
Jeff commented:
to sit in the pews for 20 years to score street creed is one thing … but he gave over $50,000 to Wrights church in the 2004 -2007 timeframe … that isn’t just “putting up with it”, that is actively supporting it …
Joanne commented:
Who sits in a church for 20 years merely for votes? Bull crap! Obama sat in Wright’s church because he believes everything Wright believes and so does his wife, Michelle.
Kentucky Colonel commented:
Palin saying that there would be a 3000% savings on insurance premiums just shows how stupid she is. Oh, wait. You mean Obama said that? He’s so smart, it must be true. I guess he’s developed a new math. Will they be teaching that new math in his new education initiative, Race To The Top?
LL commented:
“Israeli PM’s In-Law Calls Obama Anti-Semite”
That caption is more or less the same thing as announcing the Sun is hot. Obama has not rearranged his prejudice since taking office. He is clearly pro-muslim, clearly carries a lot of racist baggage and when you look at how he treats the British, he’s obviously opposed to doing business with America’s allies.
I’m still looking for something good to say about Barack Hussein Obama.
Kentucky Colonel commented:
Sorry, wrong post.

ISW Projects Seats Won from Iraqi Elections Results
A new ISW fact sheet calculates the likely makeup of Iraq’s
new parliament based on seat allocations from each province
Washington, D.C. – Institute for the Study of War (ISW) Research Director, Marisa Cochrane Sullivan, has published a two-page fact sheet that calculates the Iraqi parliamentary seats that will be likely allocated to the electoral coalitions based on the available data released from the Iraqi High Electoral Commission (IHEC). Seats in the Iraqi Parliament are allocated province by province – not as a percentage of the national vote
“The race is extremely tight; Maliki’s election list has a slim lead but his return as the Prime Minister is not a done deal. He still needs to form a governing coalition with at least one other large block,” explained Mrs. Sullivan. “This will make for contentious negotiations. “
“Former Prime Minister and secular politician, Ayad al-Allawi, is currently in second place with his Iraqiyyah list, a coalition with cross sectarian parties,” said ISW President Kimberly Kagan. “If Maliki’s rivals ally with Allawi, we could see a new governing coalition and a new Prime Minister which could dramatically reshape Iraqi politics.”
Download the results: Iraq’s Preliminary
Elections Results by Marisa Cochrane Sullivan
Key facts from the report:
* Currently, Prime Minister Maliki’s State of
Law coalition is in the lead with roughly 75-82 seats.
* Ayad al-Allawi’s Iraqiyyah list is in second with 66-74 seats.
* The predominantly-Shi’a Iraqi National
Alliance is in third with roughly 58-63 seats.
* Kurdistani List is in fourth with roughly 33-36 votes.

Joe Blow commented:
What I want to know is how the American Jews were so stupid to support Obama and continue to support him when it was obvious how he felt about them. Anyone paying attention would have know how he was going to treat Israel and the Jews.
Patman commented:
Everyone of my Jewish friends voted for Obama in spite of my pre-election arguments that he’d turn his back on Israel.
Their main reason for going against logic:
Abortion Rights
Gun Control
They hated Bush…
I am wondering how their relatives in Tel Aviv feel about their vote right now…

Wright is Obama’s connection to al-Masour, Farrakhan & Gaddafi..
Obama, al Mansour
Who is Khalid al-Mansour?
Obama Had Close Ties to Top Saudi Adviser at Early Age
al Mansour, Black Panther Party
Black Panther Party
there are many more dots that connect (ie: Wright is an x-Muslim
/Black Nationalist who attended Howard U as did Don/ald Warden
aka: al-Mansour), but as you can plainly see, the connections come
full circle as it is..
not to mention Obama having Eric Holder drop charges
against the Black Panthers (and God knows what else)..

Seeing how this has riled Jeremiah Wright’s BFF, I think Netanyahu should name the new housing settlement in East Jerusalem the “Barack Obama Projects.”
Nahanni commented:
Barack Obama is a racist and an anti Semite.
Both of which makes him a hero to the liberals/leftists/fascist/progressives.
auntie em commented:
It’s clear to me that obama hates whites…and I feel comfortable saying that his momma also hated whites.
How convenient that his white grandmother died before he was elected…he was really tore up because of that wasn’t he.
obama clearly hates anyone that isn’t him.
Liz commented:
Dude, it’s true, Obama is definitely not sweet on Jews. Except for Rahm Emmanuel, maybe. He’s Jewish, right? I don’t get it, why do dictators and tyrants always pick on the Jews? There’s not a darn thing wrong with them that I know of. I think it’s a mental illness. I think Obama is mentally ill.

Liz,
Jews have been picked on and hated for hundreds of years. But they are still here and those who would destroy them are in the dust bin of history.
I am convinced it is Satanic.

The bro-in-law is a fanatic. Only the most rabid Zionists deny that Christians and Muslims have legitimate interests in Jerusalem.
If this is what Israel gets from an “anti-Semitic” President – more $billions – imagine what a pro-Zionist President would fork over!

Uh… study history a bit, thank you. The mohammedans have no legitimate claim on Jerusalem. All the “claims” come mainly with Arafat and he was just a bloody liar and a murderer.
As for Jerusalem. Jerusalem pops up in the Bible about 700 times (give or take.) But there is not a single mention of it in the koran. Not one. Not a single one. But the moment the Jews return to Israel, return to Jerusalem, at that very same moment the mohammedans start claiming that Mohammed (may he burn in hell) ascended to heaven right from there. Very strange, no?
Before the Jews returned to Israel the mohammedans didn’t give a damn about Jerusalem. It was only important for Jews and Christians.
