American Jews Voted Against Israel’s Interests

The Jerusalem Post is reporting that National Union chairman Ya’acov “Ketzele” Katz sent a letter to Rahm Emanuel telling him not to forget his Jewish roots. This comes after Emanuel had an exchange with an unidentified American Jewish leader in which:
Katz claims that in a private meeting with the unnamed leader, Emanuel said, “In the next four years, there will be a peace agreement with the Palestinians on the basis of two states for two peoples, and it does not matter to us who is the prime minister.”
Isn’t that just wonderful? Who is the United States to tell Israel there will be a two state solution when Israel opposes that? The United States has no right to tell another country what they will and will not do. However, this administration is anti Semitic and does not have Israel’s best interests at heart.
Obama pals around bowing to Kings and rubbing elbows with Muslims while ignoring Israel and his Chief of Staff is right there with him.
Katz should not be surprised that an American Jew like Emanuel would turn his back on Israel. Many American Jews have done the exact same thing. It was well known that Obama was no friend of Israel and he indicated that things would be done differently should he happen to win. It should have been blindingly obvious by the company Obama kept (and still keeps) that he was anti Semitic. He is friends with Louis Farrakhan as is his former Pastor Jeremiah Wright and both preach hatred. Farrakhan definitely hates the Jews and blames all the world’s ills on them. Obama has people working for him who are not in favor of doing anything to help Israel. The writing was on the wall during the campaign.
And yet, American Jews voted in huge numbers for Obama. The Jews in Israel did not want him to win but those who live here, by and large, voted for him which means they voted against Israel. Not all Jews voted for Obama but I know many who did and the statistics show they went for Obama in huge numbers.
So why would Katz think any differently about Emanuel? Why would he believe that reminding Emanuel of his Jewish roots would make a difference? The people in Obama’s administration are anti Israel and into appeasing the Muslim thugs who want to wipe that country off the map.
I guess he only meets unconditionally with our enemies.
Think Obama cares about Israel?
Pam Geller at Atlas Shrugs is reporting:
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Sunday canceled his plans to attend the upcoming AIPAC summit, after it became clear that US President Barack Obama would not meet him during the conference. [originally reported in the Jerusalem Post]
Obama was busy last week shaking hands and playing kissy face with Hugo Chavez whose government has been accused of anti-Semitism. The way Chavez pals around with Iran and other Middle Eastern countries should cause concern for all Venezuelan Jews.
Looking past that one has to ask why was Obama able to make nice with the thugs in South America but can’t make time for Netanyahu? Why can Obama go on his apologize for America tour in Europe but not meet with Netanyahu? Why is it he can bow down to Middle Eastern kings and hob nob with Muslim leaders but he cannot meet with Netanyahu?
Israel has always been a good friend to the United States and she remained our friend while Bill Clinton was whizzing all over them and telling them it was raining. Israel has always counted on US reciprocation of that friendship.
Unfortunately, they are not seeing that with the Obama administration.

The mainstream media wouldn’t do it. So we are trying to get your important messages to the American people. 10 This post is a suggested read at, http://aresay.blogspot.com/
In Israel, they have a saying, “never again”- referencing the Holocaust, and the 6 million dead. Well, apparently, that’s well and good for Israel, but the American Jewish community, beginning with Steven Spielberg, and moving down the line, has become so Americanized that they can deny their heritage and, as everybody seems to need to say these days, “threw Israel under the bus”.
Never again can become here it is again all too soon, when you do not remember or revere the past, and do not hold your friends and allies close.
And then there is misplaced guilt- the left has a way of making a person feel guilty over stuff there should be no guilt about.
Anyone who reads a real history of the creation of the State of Israel in the mid- 20th century would have to come to the realization that the Palestinians were deceived not by the Jews, but by the Arab states around Israel. The Palestinians have been and continue to be used as pawns by these Arab states, plus the Persians (Iran).
It is just a shame that the American Jews, led by those in the media, have forsaken the state of Israel. I would strip them of their Jewish heritage and label, because that seems to be what they want- to be essentially anti- Jews.
This becomes just another nail that Barama is pounding into the coffin that he is building for America, and expatriate Jews are holding the nail.
I guess that these are the new Pharisees, and Barama is playing Pontius Pilate here. Its a shame that there are such spineless people here.
If you think things are bad in America now, wait until Obama comes against Israel when it matters the most. The bible says that the nation that curses Israel will be cursed.
I am not even jewish and I’m worried about Israel. My husband and I pray every night for the safety of Israel.
I still can’t believe American Jews voted for this man.
For some reason Jews have been their own worst enemy throughout history. I mean, Hitler was certainly a terrible enemy but in the history of the Jewish people they continue to do things that cause themselves misery and to incur God’s wrath.
I can’t understand why the ones in America would turn their backs on Israel is such a fashion.
I tremble at what I have read. I am, let us be clear, an Israeli Professor of Jewish History, and I want all of you to understand: however dangerous it is, and it is dangerous, there must be a two state solution. Otherwise, the Palestinians will overwhelm us with their numbers. Every responsible source in Israel is united on this. I do not want that. I want a Jewish State, one with a Jewish majority, with respect–the very respect Jews cannot have in Arab states–for Israeli Arabs, who, too, are Israelis and more loyal than most give them credit for. We have deluded ourselves long enough. Those who want to remain in Jehudah and Shomron, stay there, but become Palestinian citizens and insist on equal treatment. Do not destroy Israel in the name of a fantasized Eretz Yisrael.
