Mr. Obama's Position on Israel

I"m sure for all of you who've been keeping up with the substantive presidential primaries are held in awe of Barrack Obama's foreign policy prowess. Not. This article talks about the make up of his foreign policy advisors. I think we should be wary...

I recommend visiting Obama's website to see his expressions of support for Israel, his stated opposition to Hamas, Hezbolah, and terrorism, and his commitment to Bush's two state initiative. Obama recently reiterated these positions in a conference call with members of the Jewish/Israeli press. The general consensus among the people who participated on the call was that he said all the right things: Among them being a commitment to the survival of the Jewish State. Frankly, his stated positions on Israel do not, at their core, differ from Clinton, Romney, or McCain.

Well, and as the article goes on to explain, a number of his foreign policy advisers are not the most stellar friends of Israel, and may even lend support to Muslims (his trustee pastor, Rev. Wright, woe to him!)
