Netanyahu Thanks Obama For ‘Unflinching Support’

Posted by | October 1, 2014 19:20 | Filed under: Politics Top Stories


The right-wing narrative is that President Obama hates Israel and, thus Jews. He is, after all, a Muslim, right?  Well, if he is, he’s one Muslim the Israeli prime minister likes.

Netanyahu cozied up to U.S. President Barack Obama on Wednesday ahead of an Oval Office meeting, thanking him ‘for the unflinching support you gave Israel’ during this summer’s war in Gaza, ‘expressed in so many ways.’

He praised the U.S. president for the ‘continuous bond of friendship that is so strong between Israel and the United States.’

But just two months ago the Obama administration was angrily condemning Israel for retaliating against rocket attacks by the terrorist Hamas government…

Obama was more muted on Wednesday saying that ‘throughout the summer, obviously all of us were deeply concerned about the situation in Gaza.’

‘I think the American people should be very proud of the contributions that we made to the Iron Dome program to protect the lives of Israelis at a time when rockets were pouring into Israel on a regular basis,’ he said.

    “unflinching support”-Netanyahu now where’s my check! Fiscal year 2015 began today with Ted Cruz & Mc’Connell backing down from GOP’s shutdown threats. Here’s why repubs backed down and POTUS Obama wins again! http://www.vox.com/2014/9/20/6545275/continuing-resolution-basics-deficit-reduction-budget

        The GOP finally caved on opposing the 2010 ACA’s HC reform $1.5 T federal deficit reductions that enacted unlimited & higher Medicare taxes for annual net income above $250K. The fiscal deal also ended GWB tax cuts, but only for the wealthiest:) “The fiscal cliff deal, in which the Bush tax cuts for high earners were allowed to expire, added hundreds of billions in new tax revenue. And health-care spending is falling, providing additional deficit reduction through reduced Medicare, Medicaid and Obamacare spending.”

    What I find most aggravating is that after right wing talking points blow up in their faces, they do not even admit they were wrong. Just fall back on rants about Solyndra, Fast and Furious, and of course BENGHAZI!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(what difference does it make), and they do not miss a beat.

    The old axiom is that a stopped clock is correct twice each day. The American right needs to play catch-up in order to be as useful as a broken clock.

    Sarah Palin coined the term “Lamestream Media”. I nominate the term “Wrongstream media” for these agenda-driven media outlets which earn their profits primarily by generating and feeding off hatred of the President.

    e.g. the right is virtually always wrong

    A blast from the past, courtesy of right wing wrongstream media.

    No story here.
    The rightwing narrative is total propaganda and has been for decades.
    Bullshit is bullshit no matter how ya slice it.

    A couple of years ago Netanyahu was making a lot of noise about bombing the hell out of Iran. He doesn’t seem to mention it anymore. Did someone tell him to knock it off?

    These two comments contradict each other.

    – “thanking him for the unflinching support you gave Israel during this summer’s war in Gaza”

    – “But just two months ago the Obama administration was angrily condemning Israel”

    I don’t trust politicians of either party of any country, especially when there’s a dog and pony show involved. For every comment they make, there’s an ulterior motive.

    • Larry Schmitt October 2nd, 2014 at 09:01

      For once I agree with you 100%.

      Husbands sometimes hate their wives but they stick with them because overall they love them. A contradiction? Yup. That’s life.
