Obama to Jews: Don’t Judge Me by Funny Name
Barack Obama on Thursday promised “an unshakable commitment to Israel’s security” as he sought to reassure doubtful Jewish voters. He also said he hopes to help improve relations between American blacks and Jews.
In a passionate appearance at a synagogue, Obama courted Jewish voters by reaffirming his opposition to negotiating with the militant Palestinian group Hamas and said talks with Iranian leaders could help strengthen Israeli security.
