Palin: Obama Selling Out Israel
Source: The Huffington Post

NORFOLK, Va. — Sarah Palin on Sunday painted President Barack Obama's administration as a cowering giant intent on surrendering the nation's mantle as a superpower and willing to sell out its allies. The former John McCain running mate addressed a paying audience of several hundred people in Norfolk and accused Obama of selling out ally Israel in over its naval blockade of Gaza and treating Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shabbily.

On May 31, Israeli naval commandos killed nine pro-Palestinian activists in clashes aboard a Turkish ship headed for Gaza, setting off a world outcry and forcing Israel to ease its three-year-old blockade.

She also said Obama lacked the resolve to stand up to Russia and China.

"Do they think, really, that we're getting anything in return for all this bowing and kowtowing and apologizing? No, we don't get anything positive in return for this," Palin said at the event spearheaded by a Norfolk talk radio station. "So while President Obama is getting pushed around by the likes of Russia and China, our allies are left to wonder about the value of an alliance with our country any more. They're asking what is it worth," she said.

You know, I'd offer a comment, I really would, but, as a relative newbie, I'm still not entirely certain exactly how much profanity per sentence is allowable on DU.

3. And the problem is...?
Israel's a big boy, it doesn't need us to tie its shoes and wipe its nose and subsidize its ethnic cleaning anymore.

6. President Barack Obama's administration as a cowering giant
1. accused Obama of selling out ally Israel in over its naval blockade of Gaza and treating Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu shabbily

2. Obama lacked the resolve to stand up to Russia and China

Coming from someone who lacks the resolve to stand up to Israel, I find her comments lacking in merit
She'd have been in the White House shining Benji's loafers and pressing his shirts

8. Israel turned on the US first killing that US citizen like that on the boat.
If any other country had done what Israel did to a US citizen on that ship she'd be calling for a war especially if it had been a muslim country.
