Why Do Arabs Obey Obama When No One Else Does?

 

"While the entire world is becoming aware of the weakness of the U.S. administration, from Latin America to Asia, from Iran to Korea, and from Turkey to China to Russia, strangely, only the Arabs accept its commands and obey."

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: When his government announced plans to build 1,600 new homes on what is widely percieved to be occupied Palestinian land in East Jerusalem, it was a major slap in the face to visiting Vice President Joe Biden.

During his recent visit to Tel Aviv, Vice President Joe Biden attracted attention with his intimate speech to the Jewish state. During his discourse at the University of Tel Aviv, the man spoke as if he were a displaced person returning to his homeland after a long absence. He told listeners that a Zionist doesn't necessarily have to be a Jew, but could be non-Jew as well. After the event, Israeli newspapers celebrated the close friend of the Jewish state, pointing to his "religious" Jewish daughter-in-law and how he shared her Passover celebration. We weren't told whether she has any children that are Jewish and necessarily Zionist - like their grandfather!?

 

Netanyahu's slap in the face to this important visitor - the announcement of the 1,600 settlement units in a colony near Jerusalem - didn't prevent Biden from professing his love and affection, and the criticism he uttered was just a "hasty" reaction. This was quickly overcome and Biden showed his understanding to Netanyahu, that friend and "man of peace," who told him that he knew nothing about the announcement and that it wasn't his decision.

 

And Biden isn't the only intimate friend of the Jewish state in the White House. Dear Hillary Clinton is effusive in proclaiming her love and support (manifested during her speech at the AIPAC conference). Then there is Zionist and son of a Zionist, White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel - and many others. Finally we're left with our dear Barack (Hussein) Obama, who was welcomed by many for his "soft" speech that was in reality soft only to those who wanted it to be.

 

It's clear now to anyone with vision that what we said before the presidential election was true: Obama was better than the Republican nominee in regard to the Jewish state because of his capacity to sell his goods to Arabs, the Islamic World and throughout the rest of the Third World. But all the while, aside from the ones surrounding him in the administration, Obama is tied down by scores of Zionists in Congress .

Zionist influence within the corridors of U.S. power has reached such a level, that one can't even speak about Republicans or Democrats, because a majority of lawmakers in both parties have become supporters of the Jewish state, which was confirmed by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi after her meeting with Netanyahu. Those supporters have infiltrated and control the media and the rest of the halls of power in the country.

 

If it were otherwise, Netanyahu could never have taken them so lightly - I refer to Obama, his vice president and his secretary of state. If it were otherwise, Netanyahu would have had to do the natural this and freeze settlements activity in Jerusalem and the West Bank for a limited period, in order to help launch negotiations in a way that would have helped Washington extricate itself from the swamp left by George W. Bush - particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan.

 

Could one argue that the Obama team, as Zionist as it is, didn't expect something like this to happen? Of course not - or Biden wouldn't have briefly recoiled over the announcement of new construction, and everyone saw how he begged the Israelis, literally telling them: "What you're doing here affects the security of our troops fighting in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. That exposes us to peril and puts peace in the region at danger" [translated quote].

 

It's necessary here to note that the tensions that have marred U.S.-Israeli relations in recent days (including Obama's limited show of determination when facing Netanyahu) were necessary to persuade Arabs to cling to the option of talks, and to wager on "embarrassing Israel," especially before the Arab summit in Libya. But more important is the Pentagon's adoption of a more balanced approach to the Palestinian issue, due to a fear of fanning the flames and impacting U.S. soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan - and America's interests throughout the region.

The striking thing about the whole issue is that while the entire world is becoming aware of the weakness of the U.S. administration, from Latin America to Asia, from Iran to Korea, and from Turkey to China to Russia, strangely, only the Arabs accept its commands and obey.

 

A French-Jewish artillery officer, Alfred Dreyfus was wrongly convicted of treason in 1894 and recieved a life sentence until his innocence was proven and he was released in 1896.

[Editor's Note: Although to many Muslims, the word "Zionism" has taken on a sinister hue, "Zionism" is a concept popularized by Hungarian Jewish journalist Theodore Herzl in his 1896 book The State of the Jews. In light of Europe's history of cruelty and marginalization of Jews - and after a French Jewish military officer named Alfred Dreyfus was accused of spying for Germany and convicted of treason in one of the most notorious cases of anti-Semitism in French history - Herzl concluded that Jews would never be accepted in Europe and needed their own homeland. This is the origin of political Zionism and the drive to create a Jewish state, which culminated in 1948 with the founding of the state of Israel.]
