There was an attempt to suppress criticism of what was said by Obama. Many leaders wanted a positive message to come out of it. One thing was clear and that is that Obama supported the division of Jerusalem and wanted Israel to be more forthcoming in its concessions to reach peace. Obama also talked about how sinscere Abbas is.. I bet ZOA wasn’t invited. Remember these Jewish leaders are almost all Democrats.
Ed Lasky at American Thinker says Our patronizing President lectures the Jews
Obama wants Israel to create context for peace
HAARETZ

But some of the delegates, who asked not to be named, also said that the president hinted that Israel must do some soul-searching regarding its commitment to peace.
Obama relayed that the Palestinians “don’t feel confident that the Netanyahu government is serious about territorial concessions,” said participants. Obama also indicated that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas was set on establishing a state during his tenure and be amenable to an acceptable deal if offered, said the delegates.
Rabbi Steven Wernick, CEO and Executive Vice President of the United Synagogue for Conservative Judaism, lauded Obama for what he called a “balanced and fair” approach to the stalled peace process.
“I think the president was consistent in hinting that both sides have to demonstrate greater seriousness for it to occur. I asked the president specifically about the Palestinians creating a context of peace in their culture, especially after the Palestinian leaks showed there is a big difference between their public and private statements,” said Wernick.
“He said there is an opportunity in the region for a rigorous debate. He asked for soul-search for everyone. I think he was talking about the objective reality that both sides need to think if they indeed want peace – he spoke specifically about Netanyahu and Israeli leadership, but he spoke also about Palestinians,” added Wernick.
“He spoke about Iran and Syria, and expressed optimism regarding the revolution in the Arab world – but cautious one. That we have incredible opportunity to create context for that to happen. What most impressed me was his command of the issues and the ability to try to craft a reasonable strategy considering the reality of circumstances. I thought he was extremely balanced and fair.”
“People who have negative views about this administration will have them reinforced. I am convinced that the President is 100% supportive of Israel and has a desire to reach peace between Israel and the Palestinians,” said Wernick. “He and his advisers stated explicitly and repeatedly that the U.S. remains committed to Israel’s security.
“I didn’t get a sense they are tired of the process. They are looking for ways to promote it – the problems that he raised are that Palestinians are concerned about territory and national determination and Israelis are concerned about their security,” added Wernick.

C’mon, Barbara, don’t get wobbly. We need all the help we can get in 2012 so we can boot Imam Obama back to Chicago into the warm embrace of all the Chicago thugs he is a part of.
With the very strongly antisemetic personality of the current president and others, I would like to know if Israel is prepared to let us American Jews into Israel in mass if neccessary. It may be coming sooner than we would like to think!
I will only be finished when I can expose Jews who hate America to the point that they are unable to weaken the Israeli-American alliance by driving a wedge between the two allies. Israel has no other allies and is fortunate to have an implacable ally like the US, with such strong support among the American people that even Imam Obama, who was elected with the help of 89% of American Muslims, 78% of American Jews and 54% of American Catholics, cannot go too far in harming Israel.
Many of the American Muslims are anti-Semites, most of the Catholics are not and the liberal American Jews are morons for supporting the most anti-Semitic president in US history.
Are you finished yet?
Double thick!
What a dimwit. Yamit, Yonatan and you have all gone bonkers when I point out the perfidy of 78% of the American Jews who voted for Obama.
Now, you have run and hidden under your desk when Aaron S. has said the same thing in far more graphic terms.
Are you reading this, Shy Guy? This is another dimwit who proves what I have written above. He either doesn’t understand what is written here or thinks he can get away with deliberate misrepresentations of what I have written to try and sweep what his precious 78% of American Jews did. So, let me spell it out for him, one more time. I have never blamed the entire Obama win on Jews – simply pointed out the perfidy of 78% of American Jews voting for the most anti-Semitic and anti-American president in US history, after knowing all about the strong and deep anti-Semitic influences in his background.
Sorry, folks, but I am forced to explain until the moron gets it through his thick head. Catholics are not Semites, so whatever the 54% of American Catholics did was bad, but not as putrid as 78% of Semites voting for an anti-Semite.
They are obviously as dimwitted as you are – which was my point all along. How could it be “best for America”, or for Israel, to elect the most unqualified and inexperienced moron in history, who was anti-Semitic to boot?
Oh, I’m reading it alright. I don’t see him blaming the entire win on the Jews, as you do at every opportunity. Wee bit of a difference don’t you think? I note that in you last 2 posts I see this referenced no less than 3 times. You are obsessed with this. I have told you many times already that Catholics put up many more votes for the muzzie in chief – 10’s of millions more, yet that doesn’t mean anything to you, just the Jews voting for him. It may come as a surprise to you that a lot of American Jews consider whats best for America before they consider whats best for Israel. So they vote thinking the same way that your Catholics voted – majority BHO. Of course, you’ll ignore this as usual – as all good little anti-semites do. Screw off failed eagle.
You are both thick and a liar.
No one ever argued about the self-inflicted stupidity of 3/4 of American Jewry. Try again, Bozo.
Oy, veh! I wonder if Yamit, Yonatan and Shy Guy are reading this. When I say these things they go stark, raving bonkers because they think a Gentile is not supposed to tell the truth about the insufferable liberal American Jews when the truth makes them look like the morons they are. Now, when a conservative Jew says it, they will probably all run and hide or look the other way:-))
Aaron, c’mon now. The Torah was written by true believers with a self-serving conflict of interest. It was not written by God. You are spouting “faith” beliefs, not scientifically provable facts.
Let’s get real here. Most of the Jews were dispersed from Galilee, Judaea and Samaria by conquering Muslims, WHO ALSO CLAIM TO HAVE GOD ON THEIR SIDE.
GOD, BY DEFINITION, SINCE CHRISTIANS, MUSLIMS AND JEWS WORSHIP THE SAME GOD, DOES NOT TAKE SIDES DOWN HERE ON EARTH. WISE UP AND GIVE GOD A BREAK. HE ALLOWS THE WISE TO BE WISE AND THE MORONS TO BE MORONS, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY ARE CHRISTIANS, MUSLIMS OR JEWS.
It took the Brits to eject the Muslim Ottomans, and they then partitioned the area to try and solve the competing claims of both sides, and to provide a safe haven for Jews after the Holocaust. If the Palestinians had more than half a brain each, they would have accepted the partition of 1947, just as the founders of Israel did, and you would have had the two-state solution that seems anathema to the Jews today – admittedly for good practical reasons for those who live in the real world and for religious reasons for those who believe that the Torah was dictated by God – whereas the Palestinians are still looking to impose their will and get a one-state solution from a position of weakness.
This is the first group of morons in history who tried to get their way by force, got their arses kicked over and over again, but are still demanding everything they would have achieved had they won. Unfortunately, history has passed them by, and the status quo is the best they are likely to get, unless the Jewish leaders get wobbly and do another Gaza.
A few degrees of longitude to the east the same Brits partitioned the Indian subcontinent for similar reasons, and there both sides accepted their partition, which was about as “fair” or “unfair” as the one in the middle-east depending whose ox was being gored, and everyone moved on with their lives after some transitional bloodshed.
Only the Palis are pissing and moaning, but strangely, their PR has been so effective that most of the world seems to have forgotten that they are the bad guys. Instead of understanding what the Hamas Charter means to the survival of Israel, they are all fixated on the settlements with which Israel has been shooting itself in the foot by conceding that these are being bult on disputed territory and may have to be dismantled – based on the unfortunate and ill-conceived Gaza precedent – rather than annexing the land and telling everyone who disagrees to shove it.
Since the best that is likely to happen until hell freezes over is the status quo, in the context of the Arab intransigence from a position of weakness, I say why not have a better status quo rather than a shitty one?
Notice how the seditious leftist media never questions Obamao on anything. When Bush was in office and gas went over $3 the media went apeshit. Now they are as silent as lambs to the slaughter. Not a peep out of these sheep. Oh, no. They never criticize their Messiah, Obamao. I have no doubt in my mind that Obamao is a foreign agent sent to undermine our country.
What amazes me is that the CIA is keeping this information hidden. They MUST know what a danger he is. Obamao couldn’t even pass an FBI security check with his past associations. And yet, somehow liberals and leftists elect him to the highest office in the land so that he can subvert our entire way of left. Obama said he was going to “fundamentally transform” America. Any rational person would be scared shitless by that comment.
Real JEWS would never vote for Obama. He is a radical Communist Jew hater. He manipulates liberal Jews in the most cynical way and they fall for his crap. Obamao goes to the Arab world and foments an Islamic revolution and then tells his liberal Jewish patsies to fall in line and pressure Israel to cut its own throat. And these ersatz Jews come out of the meeting saying how “reasonable” he is.
Primo Levi observed astutely that the extreme personalities that existed in the Concentration Camps are around us at all times. They just have to be less obvious. Well, what else are these liberal Jews than sell out traitors to Israel and the Jewish people. The Arabs control 22 countries and there are 54 Islamic countries. If they don’t like living under Jewish control, they should get off their smelly asses and move like millions of people do! Get on your camel and vamos. If millions of Mexicans can move so can Arabs. Get out of Eretz Israel.
And the liberal Jewish leadership can go follow them and convert to Islam which they so admire.
And they say Jews are smart. This proves hos gullible and easily manipulated liberal Jews are. Do not be fooled, the so-called “conservative” Jewish movement in America is a liberal movement. The conservative Jewish leadership has been replaced by liberals who have nothing be blind jingoistic adherence to the Democratic cause. The so-called American Jewish leadership is nothing more than Obama’s Judenrat, easily manipulated into helping him steer the rest of the Jewish population into oblivion.
Beware all liberal Jews. Their loyalty is to liberalism above all else. Where does God’s word fit into the equation? Where does Torah fit into the equation? You see, for liberals Obama’s word trupms that of God.
Maybe these so-called Rabbis should read the Torah. God gave the Promised Land to the Jews for all eternity. There is nothing about making deals with Arab squatters who are trying to steal Jewish lands.
I love that Obama tells Jews to do soul searching. He’s the one who should do some soul searching. But of course, Communists have no souls.
BO,
Insecure Jews like Shy Guy, Yonatan and Yamit get very defensive when you cite the 78% of American Jews who voted for Imam Obama, the most anti-Semitic president in history, after knowing the strong anti-Semitic influence in his background.
This comment shows who is the real idiot. This race-obsessed ignoramus still has no idea how good the Bush years were compared to the catastrophe that has taken place in just the last 2 years – with no end in sight unless we boot him in 2012. During the Bush years we had average deficits of 3.5% of GDP, average 5% unemployment rate, $4 trillion lower national debt, two countries liberated from Muslim tyrants hostile to Israel.
78% of liberal American Jews voted for Imam Obama, the most anti-Semitic president in US history, after knowing about his anti-Semitic mentors.
You.
Brush up your Spanish in 10-15 years a majority of Spanish speakers will dominate America. You stupid white Americans have lost your country.
That just goes to show how dumb Republicans are by nominating the only running candidate who could lose to a black guy. White America is still not racially blind but there is a limit to white American racism and that seems to be their own empty pockets and the knowledge that with McCain it would be like 4 more years of Bush and a good chance a woman might have to assume presidential duties before the term was up. That’s when fear of the elephants Trumped hatred of racial color.
Apparently enough white Americans voted for the black guy to give him an undisputed victory.
Does anyone have a list of the U.S. organizations that were invited? The last time there was a White House meeting like this, BO dictated who he would meet with, requiring the Jewish representatives to include anti-Israel groups such as J Street, and bar the most Zionist groups, like ZOA. And the Jewish leaders cravenly went along. What a pack of bootlicking spaniels.
Obama telling Jews where they can and cannot live in their G-d given Hollyland is the equivebnt of Jim Crow telling the President of the United State where Blacks can and cannot live in American.
Obama plan
You.
Shy Guy said,
Not really, Shoite Guy. MOST white Americans voted against Obama, whereas nearly ALL Jews here voted for him. So tell me, who are the bigger idiots?
I seem to recall that was true for all Americans a little over 2 years ago.
Most Jews are self-effacing suckers. They’re Hansels and Gretels to Obama’s wicked witch.
Obama speaks to American Jews but sends emmissaries to the Israeli Jews. He needs the American Jews vote and money for re-election. He bullies the Israeli Jew.
I voted for neither Hussein or McCain(both are liars, Soros money takers, and egomaniacal). I voted 3rd party.
For Obama to tell Israelis to “search their souls” when he doesn’t even have one…vomitus.
Saw where the frumpy, pantsuit wearing Hillary Clinton wants $100 million from the U.S. taxpayer to fund Hezbollah er..I mean the Lebanese army.
Now I know why I voted McCain even though I’m a staunch left-of-center Democrat. (I did it on instinct. Sometimes that’s best.)
