Obama Supports Jews?

The lamestream media told you:

"Palestinian issue putting Obama to the test," Ben Feller, AP, 9/18/11
"Obama is facing questions about his commitment to Israel and his support among Jewish voters despite a record of support for Israel that analysts say has been strong and fair."

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

The AP may say Obama supports Israel, but that doesn't make it so, and a significant portion of the Jewish community apparently would never say that. Chalk it up to lamestream media attempting to set the tone, and falsely reporting what is for what isn't. SOP.

"In his address to the UN last week, Obama reminded the assembled dignitaries of the "new basis for peace talks" he had proposed in May,  signaling he would continue to pressure Israel to accept the 1967 lines, dubbed by former Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, Abba Eban as the "the Auschwitz lines." Solidly behind Israel? I think not." Name withheld on request.

Lebanon Winner Disputed

Page Nine suggested (see "Nobody Wins Lebanon") no one won in south Lebanon. Barrett Tillman disagrees: "Alan, just my two centavos. I think that Hezbollah won a clear victory. The Hezzies are still there, still armed, and (omigod!) the UN is totally ineffective. I guess Dubya's handlers felt obliged to say that Israel won, but its politicians merely pulled the plug and declared victory. At any rate, the Muslims took on the IDF and at worst fought the contest to a draw. That's a win in the Muslim playbook. They're like the Terminator. They'll be back. With bigger toys next time."
