Obama Not Very Popular In Israel

By Rob on July 18, 2008 at 06:16 pm

As we all brace ourselves for the orgy of adulation and worship that will be Obama’s international campaign trip (still trying to figure out why any American politician should be campaigning overseas) it’s worth noting that Obama isn’t adored in every nation he’ll be visiting.

In the past month, one poll found 36 percent of Israelis preferred McCain, versus 27 percent for Obama, while in another, 46 percent of respondents said a McCain presidency “would be better for Israel,” compared to 20 percent who said the same about Obama.

For what it’s worth.

I, personally, think the only opinions that matter about Obama’s qualifications for office are American opinions. That being said, unlike those of us here in America the Israelis have to actually live in the middle east. They live and breathe the war on terror daily, and if they don’t think Obama is the right man for the job...well, that tells us something doesn’t it?

The Muslims who want us dead are on the side of Barack.

The Israelis, our friends and allies, are on the side of McCain.

Our Muslim enemies are not stupid. They know which candidate is best for their goals.

McCain just wants to kill them. He gets no love from the bloodthirsty Muslims.

President Bush has been extremely successful for terrorist recruitment and invigoration of hated towards America because of the invasion of Iraq, and it’s extremely unfortunate. I fully support the invasion of Afghanistan as did 75+ of liberals at the time.

Hold that thought.

Nunez has been extremely successful for terrorist recruitment and invigoration of hatred towards America because of the invasion of Afghanistan. It’s extremely unfortunate.

See how stupid that line of argument is?

The Israelis know that any Democrat President would be a guaranteed wet towel.

The serious situation of Iran is not off the table. That country and it’s deadly arsenal could go nuts at any time. We are on standby with Islamic madmen. This situation is unsustainable and not likely to last.

Israel will be one who will have to do deep penetration surgical strikes. Israel doesn’t have the luxury of fucking around. It’s a matter of survival for them.
