Yesterday President Obama reaffirmed support for Israel's military action in Gaza

while expressing concern for civilian casualties.

<snip>

In Washington, President Obama said he had spoken to Netanyahu earlier Friday and affirmed strong U.S. backing for Israel’s right of self-defense. But Obama said he “also made clear that the United States and our friends and allies are deeply concerned about the risks of further escalation and the loss of more innocent life.”

more reason why I truly regret voting for him the second time. America should hang its head in shame. So should Obama for supporting the ruthless Netanyahoo.

who would have ever thought that various and sundry people would want to kill Jews? Hard-to-believe.

I think your comment would have been a Gold-prize winning DUzy if we still had them.

Paranoia is an unfounded or exaggerated distrust of others, sometimes reaching delusional proportions. Paranoid individuals constantly suspect the motives of those around them, and believe that certain individuals, or people in general, are "out to get them."

Carter is the only one to stand up to Israel. You should have heard Bill Clinton -he made Obama sound like a liberal.
