As we could see, our country the USA is divided, be it in the Senate or in public. Obama doesn’t seem to grasp the reality. With all respect for his knowledge, he doesn’t head a university, so to say, but a nation, with years of experiences and much larger than community. History shows us many examples of wars, WWI, WWII and other wars in which a number of members of my family fought, not mention myself, who was an officer. Yes, Obama was elected by a majority, but with all due respect, even this majority now realizes that he is far from being a leader.
Today, even the world does not consider him a leader of a great nation but a community organizer. It is not the first time that our president is putting the blame on others. Since Obama is in power, terrorism has substantially increased. Obama may be mindful of history, but in fact his administration is the one who pulled the strings, be it in Tunisia, in Libya, and in Egypt without success and now he is meddling with Israel, the only democratic country which is stable, peaceful and creative in the entire Middle East.
I don’t believe that, with all respect, Obama checked if the so-called Palestinians existed before as a nation or as a people and if they have the right to claim any piece of the land that everyone in the world knows well that it belongs to the Jews for thousands of years. Both Christians and Muslims know this well. The Omar Mosque was built on the ruins of the Jerusalem temple, which was built 3000 years ago by King Solomon.
Most of the people called Palestinians, who now inhabit part of the land, came from many countries in the Middle East seeking the jobs which the Jewish inhabitants created.
I have no objection that the Arabs stay in the territory which Israel controls. They can even apply for citizenship. I believe that Israel will treat them better than any Arab leader. By the way, there are already one point two million Arabs living in Israel. The Jews have lived in Arab countries for centuries, peacefully, without revolting.
Obama is not the right leader to create an atmosphere conducive to peace.
Israel should not listen to his advice, that Israel would be isolated. Israel was isolated in 1948 and in 1956 and Israel prevailed, against the advice of the United States. Today's Israel is much stronger than before and it is the leader in innovation and creativity. Israel's gas and oil discovery will give it many possibilities and make it independent from outside supply. Obama is not able to put pressure on Iran or on Putin, he should not put pressure on Israel, our tusted ally.
