Obama administration begins bullying campaign against Israel
by Michael Dorstewitz, Bizpac Review
It appears more and more each day that Barack Obama is deluding himself that he’s not only the President of the United States, but also the Israeli prime minister.

U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel delivered a stern warning to Israel: Do not attack Iran without the approval of the United States. This came fast on the heels of a demand from Secretary of StateJohn Kerry delivered to the Israeli Knesset Wednesday to release Islamic terrorists in their custody as a gesture of “good will.”
On Sunday, WND.com’s Aaron Klein reported that “Hagel informed the Israeli government the Obama administration will not accept any unilateral Israeli attack against Iran” and “that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cannot decide alone whether Iran has crossed the nuclear threshold.”
That “nuclear threshold” is the so-called “red line” Netanyahu referred to in his September speech in the United Nations. The prime minister indicated that should Iran cross that nuclear threshold, Israel would have the duty and responsibility to proceed against Iran in order to protect herself.
Speaking Tuesday at a security conference in Tel Aviv, former head of IDF Military Intelligence Maj. Gen. Amos Yadlin said that “for all intents and purposes, Iran has crossed Israel’s red line… in the summer, Iran will be a month or two away from deciding about a bomb,” according to the Times of Israel.

Last week The Jerusalem Post reported that defense secretary Hagel demanded that Israel release jihadists imprisoned by Israel as a “gesture of good faith,”
Knesset member Orit Struk reported, “the demand is shocking, not just because the peace talks must begin without preconditions, and not just because of the danger that these terrorists will return to terrorist activity once they are released, but because the release of terrorists is an energizing shot of encouragement to terror and terrorists.”
She continued, “Every release like this causes potential terrorists to make the decision to become one, because they see that they will be given support.”
During his 2009 European “apology tour,” President Obama claimed the Bush administration had “shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive” to its allies according to The Telegraph.
Maybe he forgot.

They see a weakness and like vultures they are going after their prey.
Time to put this administration on notice Israel doesn’t need authorization from anyone. If in fact Israel feels the threat is eminent they will with or without the help of this administration take necessary military action to destroy that threat.
The two errand boys Hagel and Kerry should not be permitted in Israel.
Do you think for one minute this administration would deliver these massages to England, France or Germany. Hell no.
By the way tell these two to go pound sand.
You don’t like that relationship? Then do something to change it. Otherwise, shut your mouths and stop whining about the ugly truth that the Jews nation could change just by ridding itself of it’s Jerusalem-based Judenrat.
