Two-Thirds of US Jews Give Obama the Thumbs Down on Israel

Maybe if his administration would stop threatening to blow Israeli jets out of the sky that would help?
Two-thirds of American Jews disapprove of Obama’s dealings with Israel.
CNN Political Ticker reported, via Israel Matsav:
Only a third of Americans approve of the way President Obama’s handling the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, according to a new national poll.
A Quinnipiac University survey released Thursday morning indicates that 35 percent of the public gives the president a thumbs up on how he’s dealing with the situation between Israel and the Palestinians, with 44 percent saying they disapprove, and just over one in five unsure.
This stands in contrast with how Americans feel about Obama’s overall handling of foreign policy, with 48 percent approving and 42 percent saying they disapprove.
According to the poll, two-thirds of Jewish voters disapprove of how the president’s handling Israeli-Palestinian relations, with 28 percent saying they approve. Jewish voters were big backers of Obama in the 2008 presidential election, with exit polls indicating that nearly eight of ten backed the Democratic candidate.
Two-thirds of people questioned in the survey say that the president should be a strong supporter of Israel but, by a 42 percent to 34 percent margin, voters say Obama’s not a strong supporter of Israel.

Lemme guess. Bolstering numbers in Obama’s favor are the Jews working at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Obama will still get over 70% of the Jewish vote in 2012. Most secular Jews are leftist. Lenin would defeat Mother Teresa in a popularity contest with these folks. I write this with regret.
Bogdan from Australia commented:
Yeah… Better late than never. But it is too late now, I’m afraid…
DocScience commented:
That means that 30% of American Jews are suicidal, or at least suffering from serious self-hatred.
Or REALLY REALLY stupid.
Scary.
American Elephant commented:
Only two thirds?
Anyone wanna bet which third Joy Behar is in?
Andreas K. commented:
I think we can stop calling Obama supporters “Obamatrons”, “O-bots”, etc, and start calling them Obamanazis.
dries commented:
…but they will vote for him anyway in 2012. Liberalism & Socialism are the religion of American Jews.
W. L. Roy commented:
indigo and dries are right on. Most Jews of the USA will line up and vote for the big, America-hating Muslim in the WH come 2012. Sad to say.

Right. The most important issue is that conservative Christians likely vote republican.
Conservative Christians are the real enemy.

Now, Now, they are not stupid. This is a permanant condition. They are ignorant of facts. It does seem that some part of them are into masacistic behavior though. Thanks Jews, some of us have no wish to see the inside of an interment camp. powder is dry.

How do we say “It’s about time” in Yiddish???
tadcf commented:
Of course most Jews in this country oppose a statement like this one attributed to Barack Obama. It’s their biblical homeland. It would be best if religion–any religion–was taken out of the equation, and we would all agree on what’s best for America.

Don’t know where the validity to this article is. Robert Wexler, Democratic Congressman from Boca Raton, etc., in Florida, resigned. In recent special election, this heavily Jewish enclave in S. Florida elected another Democrat to fill the seat.
I don’t think they ever learn.

Eighty percent of Jews voted for Obama because he was a democrap and because of Jewish guilt. Hope that change was all that you hoped it would be. You voted for this anti Israel anti semitic regime, and I do not absolve you of your buyer’s remorse. All the information was there in the public arena when you cast your vote against the pro Israel republicans and voted for the negative democrap ticket. The blood of Israel is on your hands democraps. Have a nice day.
