White House Tries to Calm Wavering Rabbis
The Obama administration has "screwed up the messaging" about its support for Israel over the past 14 months, and it will take "more than one month to make up for 14 months," White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel said on Thursday to a group of rabbis called together for a meeting in the White House.
Obama just hasn't given enough speeches - yeah right
| "Called together"? Prime Minister Netanyahu and his people were "called together" to the White House to explain why they insulted President Obama by building houses for Jews in Jewish neighbourhoods in Old Jerusalem. This has to resonate with the rabbis, trained students of language that they are. |
"During the elections there were doubts about President Obama's support for Israel, and now they have resurfaced,"
Translation; the Willing Fools aren't quite as Willing
Emanuel said, according to one of those who participated in the meeting. "But concerning policy, we have done everything that we can that is in Israel's security -- and long-range interests.
| Subtext: We in the White House know better what is in Israel's best interest than Israel does. |
"Watch what the administration does."
| So far, the administration has publicly and privately insulted the elected head of Israel's government, made promises to Israel's enemies, openly wooed opposition politicians both within and without Israel's government, and assured Iran that we do not plan to force them to end their efforts to achieve nuclear weaponry, despite Iran's oft-stated plan to wipe Israel off the map. |
Dennis Ross, who runs the administration's Iran policy,
Ross was also a big point man on fundraising from Jewish Donors to the Donks - if he was at the meeting is may because the Jewish donors aren't as forthcoming
tried to allay fears during the meeting that by calling for a nuclear-free Middle East, US policy regarding Israel's alleged nuclear capabilities was changing.
| Except that some fools in the Whitehouse circulated rumours that Mr. Ross is suffering from typically Jewish dual-loyalty issues. So his presence isn't going to be as reassuring as his duplicitous masters had hoped. |
