Obama doesn’t hate the Jews or Israel, but his foreign policy towards Israel remains as it has been since during the campaign - clumsy. Unforced errors simply by demanding a peace process and concessions from Israel when Israel doesn’t have a partner in peace.

It’s the same recipe the diplomats have been working from for years - and with the same response - when Palestinians don’t get what they want - they start threatening an Intifada and violence and killing people.

Upding. Don’t agree with you, but this is exactly what I am talking about. No baseless claims of anti-Semitism. No breathless hyperbole about Obama being an enemy of Israel. A legitimate discussion of foreign-policy differences.
