Obama’s Team Gearing Up To Pressure Israel

Posted by smoothstone

Call it naivete. Call it Muslim identity politics. Whatever you want to call it, there is no doubt that Prez Obama was brought in to destroy Israel.  It is outrageous to the extreme that the whole world – including Prez Obama – capitulates to the idea that there can indeed be countries, nations, cities and neighborhoods where no Jews should live.  Via OneJerusalem:

The highlights of the [OBama] Administration’s objective in the Middle East are:

1. Forcing a deal between Israel and the Palestinians is an Administration priority. The quest for this unattainable objective is receiving encouragement from former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice who is telling the new Administration that she was within inches of achieving an agreement. This piece of fiction is being used to justify placing this foreign policy objective at the head of the foreign policy list.

2. Special envoy Mitchel’s mission to the Middle East is slated to bring results in the near term

3. The Administration is looking to force an agreement from the top down even though the Palestinian Authority does not represent the Palestinian people. Netanyahu’s alternative of creating rapid economic growth in Palestinian areas has been all but rejected by the new Administration.

4. This means that the future of Jerusalem is in jeopardy. The quest for a two state solution includes forcing Israel to divide the Holy City.

5. The Administration appears to have accepted as fact that Iran will attain nuclear energy. Its goal is get the Iranians to produce fuel for “peaceful” purposes. Even if Iran, following North Korea, agrees to limit the production of its nuclear fuel. The fact is it would take only 2-3 months to turn “peaceful” nuclear energy into weapons grade heavy fuel.

The Obama Administration’s tilt toward the Muslim world can be seen in its most influential think tank: The Center for American Progress.

The Center’s President is John Podesta who co-chaired Obama’s Transition Team. Policy after policy (both foreign and domestic) which the Center has proposed has been adopted by the Obama Administration. Confirmation of many of the points made in the above briefing can be found in the Middle East Project of the Center. In its latest Middle East Bulletin the center publishes an article that criticizes Israel’s defensive action in Gaza and it documents the day to day activities of Mitchel’s trip to the region. All the signs coming out of the Obama camp in regard to Israel are very troubling.

Next week’s Israeli elections will bring a new government which will leaned on to come to an agreement with the Palestinians (which may include Hamas). Today, the United States Ambassador to Israel was asking if Israel would negotiate with Hamas because Washington wanted to know. This situation makes it imperative that the Israeli people use their election to send a loud and clear message that Israel is united behind the concept that it will not capitulate to terrorists and that it will defend itself against its sworn enemy Iran. A clear electoral victory for the Right in Israel will help the next Israeli Prime Minister to stand up to pressure from the Obama Administration.
