Bibi Netanyahu to Obama: With all due respect Mr President, please blow me.

Sure, I’m paraphrasing. But that’s about the gist of it. Thank the lord.

Turns out not everybody thinks negotiating with a terrorist organization like Hamas — who has declared that you have no right even to exist — is such a swell idea. Mr Obama’s desire to legitimize them (along with the Muslim Brotherhood) notwithstanding.

Of course, now Obama has positioned Israel as the central obstacle to peace in the middle east — and will declare any new attacks on them as essentially self-inflicted. But then, what else is new.

update: Incidentally, you might want to read up a bit, Mr Krauthammer.

update 2: No, I wasn’t hearing things.

    And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them…

    Savor the ambiguity.

  2. Blake says:

    And I’m sure Obama will not mind if that obstacle is removed.

    Yeah, there’d be some tepid condemnations read from TOTUS, but, in the end, no more Israel, no more problem.

    Or, so goes the progressive theory.

  3. ProfShade says:

    I’ve always wondered why it’s “blow me.” If it’s any good, there’s no actual blowing going on. Unless it’s the smoke the Big O is trying to blow up Israel’s ass.

  4. The Monster says:

    Maybe it’s “get on your knees, below me“, and it’s just been shortened.

  5. cranky-d says:

    Israel cannot surrender the Golan Heights under any circumstances. The strategic advantage is too great. I also think they need to keep a good chunk of the West Bank, just to avoid that problem of having a “waist” only 8 miles wide. However, I am with Bush 43 in that the “Palestinians” (who are really only a poker chip to the other Arab states, and otherwise are held in contempt) need to stop shooting people and blowing shit up before I would even consider endorsing any kind of peace plan.

    Yes, my endorsement means that much.

    Anyway, we all know there will never be peace as long as Israel exists or until the Muslim world has their religious reformation. The latter is less like than the destruction of Israel. Even after Israel is gone, the Arabs will continue to fight amongst themselves. Their tribal shame culture wouldn’t have it any other way.

    So, really, there will never be peace in that region as we know it.

  6. Bob Reed says:

    Everyone trying to spin this “1967 borders” demand as being a long-standing US policy position are liars; there has been talk of “trading territory for peace” to be sure, but nothing like this.

    And really, why should the victorious defender ever consider giving back territory taken from a vanquished aggressor? The very idea of it is ridiculous.

    Or have the Germans recieved Danzig back lately, and I’m just missing something?

  7. cranky-d says:

    Danzig? I liked his song “Mother,” but otherwise he hasn’t done anything I know about.

  8. cranky-d says:

    Also, Israel has already given back some of the territory they took. That was ill-advised, but there’s no need to compound the error now. Maybe they could give up a token piece of the West Bank, in a corner somewhere. Then they could build a big wall around it, and let the “Palestinians” kill each other off. It could be like “Escape from New York.”

  9. Bob Reed says:

    The Palestinians won’t be happy until they’re given the “right of return” they’ve always been looking for. Then they merely have to dominate Israeli politics, and as such can dis-assemble the nation from the inside out.

    Kind of like what ObaMao and the seditious Democrats want to do here. It’s pure Alinsky with a little “long march”, etc, thrown in…

    That’s why they’re all the left is so down with it. It’ll give ’em another chance to reprise their favorite celebratory technique of dancing around repeating, “this is what Democracy! looks like”. Because to them, freedom and liberty are, like, 100 year old ideas, and clearly over-rated.

    I’m with cranky-d on this, wall ’em in and let the Palestinians fight each other…

  10. The Monster says:

    Where’s the “right of return” for the Germans “ethnically cleansed” out of Silesia, Pomerania, and East Prussia?

  11. The Monster says:

    And really, wasn’t Adolf just trying to liberate those people in the occupied Sudetenland?

  12. Blake says:

    Monster, sheesh, don’t you remember? Right of return is only valid for the brown skinned people.

    Germans, being white, have no right to anything, because they’re part of the white ruling class that oppresses brown people.

  13. The Monster says:

    Of course the “ethnically cleansed” in that instance were resettled in Germany, and completely integrated into their new home communities. Had they been housed in some kind of Oderneisstinian Refugee Camps for decades, people might be howling about these horrible dispossessed Odies, and how evil the Poles are for not allowing them the Right of Return to the Occupied Territories.

    I say that Jordan and Egypt bought the Palis when they annexed the West Bank and Gaza respectively, and now they need to find them somewhere to live other than Israel.

    And all of the Joooz forcibly expelled from Muslim countries (while the “Palestinians” voluntarily left so as not to be caught by friendly fire when their buddies in Jordan, Egypt, and Syria were pushing the Joooz into the sea)… Well, there’s not a bit of discussion of them having a Right of Return. That Israel has integrated those people fully, rather than creating a true apartheid system of camps for them, explains the difference.

  14. Slartibartfast says:

    I was listening to the Diane Rehm show on NPR, and they had Jeffrey Goldberg on and talking to callers. The general tone was that right-wing people are acting like a bunch of babies, and that we fund Israel and have every right to step in and act like the grownup in some imagined petty squabble between the children that are Israel and the rest of the middle east.

    Never mind how you’d feel if you were Israel, being told by the President of the United States that we want, possibly even require, them to retreat back to their 1967 borders.

    Imagine if you were the United States, being instructed by a pan-African consortium of countries that reparations are needed; indeed, are required.

    Your response would be outrage, would it not? Who are we, to tell Israel to divest itself of territory? I mean, why can’t we just give Texas back to Mexico, man?

  15. Spiny Norman says:

    And all of the Joooz forcibly expelled from Muslim countries…

    You’d be surprised at the wide swaths of the American left who vehemently deny that such a thing ever occurred (at least judging by the internet commentariat). No, they insist ALL of the Jews in Israel are European colonists (a la Helen Thomas).

  16. Darleen says:

    Rand Paul piles on:

    Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul (R) criticized President Obama on Friday for the “fool’s errand” of using Israel’s pre-1967 border lines as a starting point for Middle East peace negotiations.

    “Peace from weakness or peace from outside coercion of Israel is a fool’s errand. Unfortunately, the President today proved himself willing to play that fool,” Paul said in a statement.

    “For President Obama to stand up today and insist that Israel should once again give up land, security and sovereignty for the possibility of peace shows an arrogance that is unmatched even in our rich history of foreign policy,” he continued.

  17. Darleen says:

    Ahhhh… someone hand Jeffrey Goldberg a crying towel.

  18. Bob Reed says:

    Ooooh, Rand Paul will clearly be marked for all time as a racist for calling Obama what he is; a fool.

  19. Blake says:

    Let’s see, the Arabs didn’t like the 1967 borders, so, the Arabs decided to cleverly give the Israelis land by losing the 6 day war.

    And, the solution to the problem is for Israel to go back to the 1967 borders?

    Shoot, if history is any guide, Israel will be given another opportunity to have the Arabs give the land back.

    I’m sure the Arabs would like another chance to change the outcome of the 1967 war.

  20. motionview says:

    Thanks from Paul Ryan Bibi.

  21. SDN says:

    I mean, why can’t we just give Texas back to Mexico, man?

    Believe me, Slart, O’s working on that. And speaking as a Texan by choice, my response starts where Bibi stopped.

    Although, at the rate the Copperheads are going, this may not be a bad deal. I mean, we beat the Mexican Army once, and they don’t seem to have improved….

  22. serr8d says:

    Ahhhh… someone hand Jeffrey Goldberg a crying towel.

    Mark Levin handed him the back of his hand.

  23. serr8d says:

    Bibi schools Obambi. That is all.

  24. Bob Reed says:

    Levin beeyotch slapped Goldberg.

  25. Pablo says:

    Was that not a thing of beauty? I love Bibi.

  26. B. Moe says:

    I noticed there were black people responding favorably to Levin, his so-called “friends”.

    That has to be some kind of trick.
