First - on a personal note - thank you...Hi Joseph,<br /><br />First - on a personal note - thank you for reading my blog and taking the time to comment. I hope you won't be annoyed with my answer and will understand I offer it in all honesty and with no disrespect intended to you.<br /><br />I call Obama by his name...his full name. I won't say he is a friend "only to the Arabs" but he is certainly no friend of Israel. I cannot say he is an "opponent of Jews" but I can say his upbringing is filled with anti-Jewish characters who spoke loudly, while Obama sat, apparently in silence. I address him this way as a reminder to myself and to others that this man is not a friend of Israel. He pressures Israel into suicidal policies while largely ignoring Arab transgressions. <br /><br />His treatment of Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, has been manipulative and insulting. Long before he was elected, I listened to my American relatives tell me how wonderful he was - it sounded much like they thought he was the messiah. I explained to them that who they voted for was their choice...it could be that they choose to vote for him because they like him in blue jeans, because they feel it is time to have a person whose name ends in a vowel occupy the Presidency. <br /><br />I would accept any and all reasons except that he was "good for the Jews" or "good for Israel." A vote for Obama was NOT a vote for a friend of Israel. Vote as you will, support him if you want, but do not for a moment consider that Obama's interest is for Israel.<br /><br />His reaction to the flotilla was a perfect example. So yes, I call him by his name - Barack Hussein Obama because his sympathies are not with Israel, his support not here either. He will do what he must to get elected - this past time and the coming time. He will dance to whatever tune he feels will get him the Jewish vote, if Jews are fools enough to support him again. <br /><br />His roots, his beliefs, his goals...are clear and the pressure he is putting on Israel - delaying military equipment, demanding Israel follow his advice and plans...these are not the makings of a friend of Israel.A Soldier's Motherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11370218893899121159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4386256495088401444.post-41806598430616831582010-07-04T04:31:22.798+03:002010-07-04T04:31:22.798+03:00Calling the president Barack Hussein Obama if it&#...Calling the president Barack Hussein Obama if it's an attempt to paint the president as a friend only to the Arabs and an opponent of Jews is very short-sighted. I can think of no other reason why you address him that way.Joseph Singernoreply@blogger.com
