Obama Sacks His ME Policy Adviser For Doing What BHO Said He Would Do As President
Barack Obama sacks adviser over talks with Hamas
One of Barack Obama’s Middle East policy advisers disclosed yesterday that he had held meetings with the militant Palestinian group Hamas – prompting the likely Democratic nominee to sever all links with him.
Robert Malley told The Times that he had been in regular contact with Hamas, which controls Gaza and is listed by the US State Department as a terrorist organisation. Such talks, he stressed, were related to his work for a conflict resolution think-tank and had no connection with his position on Mr Obama’s Middle East advisory council.
“I’ve never hidden the fact that in my job with the International Crisis Group I meet all kinds of people,” he added.
Ben LaBolt, a spokesman for Mr Obama, responded swiftly: “Rob Malley has, like hundreds of other experts, provided informal advice to the campaign in the past. He has no formal role in the campaign and he will not play any role in the future.” The rapid departure of Mr Malley followed 48 hours of heated clashes between John McCain, the Republican nominee-elect, and Mr Obama over Middle East policy.
MORE from CAMERA ( Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting in America ) HERE on Rob Malley...........
"While Robert Malley’s past history might seem typical for a bright young man pursuing a senior Middle East policy position in a future Democratic administration, digging a little deeper reveals something quite untypical in his past. Robert Malley grew up in France, where his Egyptian-born father, Simon Malley, and New York raised mother, Barbara (Silverstein) Malley, were radical publishers of a controversial magazine about Africa and the so-called Third World. Malley’s parents were rabidly anti-Israel and counted Yasir Arafat as a personal friend. Indeed, Arafat was among those “leaders” (for want of a better word) who intervened with the French government to readmit the Malley family to France after they had been expelled for their radical activities.That is, while in the Clinton administration Malley dealt directly with Palestinian matters, and with Yasir Arafat himself, despite having a huge and hidden conflict of interest: close ties between his family and Yasir Arafat.
Well, hidden from the public – when questioned about it in 2001, Dennis Ross, Clinton’s senior Middle East adviser, said that the Clinton administration knew all about Malley’s past.
While CAMERA did not publish all the facts at the time, we did mention the ties between Malley and Arafat in an article in 2005.
But now, with Malley a Middle East advisor to a major presidential candidate, it seems the full story should be exposed. I will try to minimize repetition of what others have recently published on this subject, while still laying out the facts in a coherent way."
Wild Thing's comment.......
Obama knew all along, but sacked him only when he was caught.
Obama is contradicting himself when he fires a guy for meeting with Hamas yet says he will sit down with Iran!!! Who is he kidding!!!! Obama is a friend of the Nation of Islam. The list of American hating traitors that obamama associates with is is long. No oway should B. Hussein ever see the inside of the Oval Office!
Thr UnAmerican Democrat Party are killing us, literally. There are more reds and islamofascists under Obama’s tent. It is just a matter of time before they are exposed.
This was a post about him I did on January 29th of this year. It tells more about him and also his connection to Soros. Being that Obama is bought and paid for by Soros it is just another reason why they are all connected.

That's just the way of the world anymore. Do what you're told and still risk getting canned. And then good luck trying to find something new. Times have changed and it's hard for everyone anymore. While his advisor is a big jerk, I still didn't wish for him to get sacked.

False accusation. Not the way it went down at all (Malley's said Obama did not drop him, but that Malley himself broke off all ties to the campaign--and that the ties to the campaign weren't strong anyway), and Obama has specifically said he would not talk with Hamas.

Obama's associates are sure not flag waving American patriots. They are self serving, sleezy gutter types with ties to radical organizations and criminals. This swamp of Obama's will yield more creatures as the election continues.
Another strangeness, Obama is dealing with some of the same crooks and radicals the Clintons delt with in the 90's.

The fact of the matter is that B. Hussein Obama has no record of accomplishing anything meaningful on issues that he talks about and makes illusionary promises of change. The only way to know what he is all about is to explore the views and accomplishments of the people that he has in the past and currently surrounds himself with.
This includes advisors, campaign staff, associates, and major financial supporters. All these people need to be publicly vetted to know what Obama is really about. Robert Malley is only the very small tip of the iceberg of what the country is in for should Barack Obama ever make it to the White House.

Lynn yes, it happens to good people and to bad people like this Robert Malley.
Obama is being a phony because he is very much for the enemy if he had to make a choice between Israel and the Hamas. He is no friend to Israel.

ER forst of all it does not matter in the bottom line, the news is what I quoted.
My point of this post was the kind of man Malley is and how Obama surrounds himself with people like this Robert Malley. Obama is ttouble for our country from the get go and people like Malley are drawn to Obama because they all agree with each other. Obama and Malley are low life scum and I pray Obama never becomes President.

Tom I agree, you are so right, they sure do not love America. I have come to a place in my soul where if I am told someone is a democrat I know I will respond right off the bat " oh so you hate America." I have not said to a person but I will for sure the next time I meet a dem. grrrrr
