Dershowitz rips Obama over comments on Gaza: He’s lying through his teeth

T. Belman.  ITS ABOUT TIME

Professor Alan Dershowitz blasts former US President who called for end to “Israeli occupation”: He always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart.

Harvard Law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz blasted former US President Barack Obama after Obama called for an end to “Israeli occupation”.

Speaking to Fox Business in an interview, Dershowitz said, “I think he always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart. He hid it very well. He called me to the Oval Office and he said to me, ‘Alan, you’ve known me for a long time. You know I have Israel’s back.’ I didn’t realize he meant to paint a target on it.”

“He’s never been supportive of Israel. And finally, his true feelings have come out now that he’s no longer president and doesn’t have to be elected,” the professor continued. “He has contributed enormously to the problem because he is respected among young people. And if he says the occupation is unbearable and that anything can be done to stop it, he is encouraging people to engage in their antisemitic, anti-Israel and anti-American attitudes. He should be ashamed of himself. He should apologize, but he won’t.”

Dershowitz’s commentary came after he claimed that any relationship with Obama is “over” following Obama’s onstage statements about the Israel-Hamas war.

“All of this is taking place against the backdrop of decades of failure to achieve a durable peace for both Israelis and Palestinians,” the former President said.

“One that is based on genuine security for Israel, a recognition of its right to exist, and a peace that is based on an end of the occupation and the creation of a viable state and self-determination for the Palestinian people,” he added.

Dershowitz, in response, accused Obama of lying “through his teeth” about what the former President called an “unbearable” occupation of Gaza.

“To compare those disputed claims with the rapes, beheadings, burnings, kidnappings, it’s just obscene and despicable,” Dershowitz told Fox Business. “And what it does is it lends support to those students basically, who are saying, ‘Well, what Hamas really did was not so bad… It was in response to the occupation.’”

“What he did was contribute to the risks to not only Israelis, but Americans, because it’s coming to a theater near you,” Dershowitz continued. “If Hamas is not stopped in its tracks from doing the terrorist acts, they will bring them to the United States.”

Days after the war with Hamas began, Obama expressed support for Israel following the Hamas attacks on the country.

“All Americans should be horrified and outraged by the brazen terrorist attacks on Israel and the slaughter of innocent civilians. We grieve for those who died, pray for the safe return of those who’ve been held hostage, and stand squarely alongside our ally, Israel, as it dismantles Hamas,” Obama wrote in a statement on X.

“As we support Israel’s right to defend itself against terror, we must keep striving for a just and lasting peace for Israelis and Palestinians alike,” he added.

Two weeks later, Obama toned down his earlier support and argued that some of Israel’s actions in its war against Hamas, like cutting off food and water for Gaza, could “harden Palestinian attitudes for generations” and weaken international support for Israel.

  1. The brilliant, elite Dershawitz suddenly saw his hero as an anti semite. He never saw his moves in Egypt? He never heard his inauguration speech in which he gave credit to Muslims for the greatness of this country, and how about Obama’s communist Iranian buddy Valerie Jarrett? Was he on the take or did he just like licking Obama’s ass?

  2. A lot of what is going on today in the world, was put into motion during the time of “the mufti of W DC” and Soros’ Adm, including Obam Adm III!
    Liberal Jews from Chicago launched his political career, Pritzker’ family, the main culprit. Pritzker also involved in pushing “Trans”!
    Obama/Soros can be compared, to some extent, to the grand Mufti of Jerusalem and Hitler. All four, bonafide antisemites, at war with Jews.

  3. Hussein Soetoro Obama is an extremist Muslim.
    His double swearing in ceremony at the ill shadowed inauguration should be a clue.
    His origin and drifting early in life was as murky as his trail to the WH was. And nothing changed thereafter. Hates the US and Israel. And the feeling is reciprocated. He is a deadly enemy of my people.

  4. It was obvious even before he was president, by his attending that church headed by that anti-Semitic pastor for two decades.

  5. “I think he always had a deep hatred of Israel in his heart. He hid it very well.”

    Obama has always been antisemitic and anti-Israel. His policies were extensively and exclusively designed to deligitimize, destabilize, and ostracize Israel, and yet Alan claims ‘he hid it very well’? Really? What about Obama’s Cairo speech, or his leaking details of Israeli attack plans to Iran, or providing a plan which only provided an umbrella under which Iran became a nuclear state? Even a cursory inspection of the most basic facts by a complete simpleton could honestly derive this truth. Yet, one of the most renowned legal minds in the world has taken two decades before being able to conclude this simple obvious truth because ‘he hid it very well”. Well, welcome to the real world Alan, glad you could make it.
