Excuse me?
Jay Solomon wrote at the Wall Street Journal early last week:
Mr. Obama and his senior aides have declined briefings from the Israeli government on the current crisis, said two people familiar with the Israeli outreach....A spokesman for Mr. Obama's transition team said the president-elect has ruled out virtually all contact with foreign governments ahead of the inauguration so as not to give conflicting signals on U.S. policy.
Would this be the same President-select who, even before he won the election, sent his "senior foreign policy adviser Robert Malley to Egypt and Syria" ?
... aides said Malley, who served in the administration of President Bill Clinton, relayed a pledge from Obama that the United States would seek to enhance relations with Cairo as well as reconcile with Damascus. "The tenor of the messages was that the Obama administration would take into greater account Egyptian and Syrian interests," an aide said.
The same President-select who, as a Presidential candidate, campaigned across Europe and the Middle East, including at the holy Kotel in Jerusalem?
Obama's pandering to Jews was incredibly successful, got him 78% of Jewish vote. But you just wait and see, he's gonna throw Israel under the bus. It won't be long now.
