NO To Two State Solution For Israel and NO to Funding Terrorists
As the time nears for PM Netanyahu’s May 18 visit to the U.S., there are worrisome signs that the U.S. administration will pressure Israel to make dangerous, premature concessions.
Israel must have the right to define its security needs and to ensure its survival.
Israel wants peace and an agreement with the Palestinians. But a lasting solution cannot be rushed, unconditional, or externally imposed.
Premature withdrawal from the West Bank may gravely risk Israeli lives, society and economy.
* The Palestinian Authority (PA) continues to host terrorist cells within a few kilometers of Israel’s major cities. With independent freedom of movement and air space, they will be in a position to easily attack Israelis.
* Terrorist operations, including suicide bomb plans, have been launched from the PA jurisdiction without detection or restraint from Abbas’s PA government.
* The PA government has proven unable or unwilling to block the influx of arms from Iran and other rogue states.
* A Palestinian state, under today’s conditions, would likely become an Iranian proxy, just as southern Lebanon did. Iran openly seeks a genocidal military campaign to “wipe Israel off the earth” and funds and arms anti-Israel terror groups in the Palestinian areas and southern Lebanon.
* Hamas could easily take over the West Bank, where Fatah is unpopular and weak. The heart of Israel’s population, economic centers, and Ben Gurion airport would be in direct, short-rocket range from key West Bank heights like Baal Hazor.

Obama’s Supplemental Bill Passes, Gives Billions to Enemies?
from Creepingi Sharia
Barack Obama’s 2009 Supplemental Appropriations for Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Pandemic Flu was revised and “passed by the full committee”. Not sure what the next step is, but based on the summary, it gives billions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to countries and entities that support sharia law and/or harbor, hide and support those who want to destroy the U.S. and our allies.
From David Obey’s (D-WI) office: This is a PDF file
* 3.6 billion, matching the request, to expand and improve capabilities of the Afghan security forces
• $400 million, as requested, to build the counterinsurgency capabilities of the Pakistani security forces

• HIV/AIDS: $100 million, $100 million above the request, for the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria to address a funding shortfall for grants in key countries such as Haiti, The Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Afghanistan.

Wild Thing's comment.......
Obama favors Islam over Israel. It is insane to be giving money to countries that harbor terrorists and help them in anyway. Last month on Obama's trip he said " we are strengthening our hand by reaching out to enemies of the United States ".
I agree witih KNOW your enemy, but to reach out to our enemy, hmmmmm I don't think so.
....Thank you Mark for sending this to me.

I hate that my tax dollars are being blown all over the third world. We are not buying much relief. Instead we are basically subsidizing dysfunctional societies and enriching the Swiss bank accounts of dictators and crooks.

I just read on drudge, Obama tells Netanyahu to stop building in the West Bank. That is a buffer zone for Israel. Who does this putz think he is.
It has not been reported what BiBi's response is but I'm hoping he is not caving to obama's demands. Daily, I am convinced this jerk is a moslem pure and simple. As Tom says, he is paying off the Terrorists to make nice until Israel lowers its guard. I don't trust obama, he is nothing but a thug.

Back off O'Bummer you muzzy loving bastard.
God I wish the muzzies would take this traitor out, I know it's not American of me to feel this way.
Israel is a sovereign nation, known the world over officially as the State of Israel, not the state of Palestine.
Hussein, Bibi and even your precious Commie-Muzzy UN recognizes that distinction.
If you really want peace in the middle east quit supporting the organization that supports the terrorists and malcontents, the UN, specifically the United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation Administration, (UNRRA), the organization founded in 1943. UNRRA discontinued its operations in Europe on June 30, 1947. Its remaining work, chiefly in China, ended on Mar. 31, 1949.
Where has it been since? Damned right, expressly supporting the 'Palestinians' and funding them since 1948.
Get out of the UN and it's tenacious clutches that enslaves the world under it's domination.
Israel has 61 years of prosperous development in spite of perpetual war with it's neighbors and in spite of the vermin within, they contribute nothing but hate, they have not progressed beyond the 7th century under the dictates of the paedophile butcher and his death cult.
The United States hypocrisy of stated "not supporting terrorists" then pouring funds directly into the UN and into Hamas, directly funding their terrorism, is an utterly disgusting and offensive lie.

Tom, I hate it too and it has been increasing
too and getting worse.
" Instead we are basically subsidizing dysfunctional societies and enriching the
Swiss bank accounts of dictators and crooks."
This says exactly what is happening.

Mark, you said it great that is horrible
that Obama said that. He is a putz for
sure. BiBi is a manly guyunlike Obama
I bet he was sitting there thinking one
swat across this punks face and he goes
across the room heh heh.

Jack, HUGE DITTO to what you said.
Oh man that link has me so furious!!
Yesss it is lies, the IDF has been
way too good to the Gaza Arabs to
begin with and then to have lies
about how they are treated is
disgusting beyond belief.
I would want to just shoot them
all and put the Gaza Arabs out of
MY misery. If they did not die with
the first shot then k-pow another
shot. Better that then a suicide
bomber on the next bus or at the
outdoor cafe killing a lot of
innocent people.
