Re: Charliehall – And just where did Obama “release his statement”? In the toilet, perhaps, where all of his other statements are released?

Dov is right on target. I couldn’t have said it amy better. Criticizing him for being in the Democratic party because of their stand on other issues is to obfuscate the issues. And not every democrat is anti Israel . There are some that are friendly to israel. This is about the president who is an outright anti semite on a personal level and has nothing to do with party affiliation. Stop confusing the issues, just because the neturei karta see him as their friend.

@charliehall – Are you referring to the White House Twitter statement offering prayers? You know, the Twitter account that WH press secretary said just this week Obama sometimes doesn’t even read let alone actually tweet from? Not to mention the fact that the statement THE DAY OF the murder of the Palestinian boy from Obama was one of condemnation (which I agree with) while the first statement of condemnation from Obama about anything having to do with the boys came only WEEKS later on June 30.

“If our President had any concern for the three Israeli teenagers kidnapped and murdered because they were Jews, he kept those concerns well hidden for weeks.”

This is a lie. The kidnapping took place on the night of 6/12-6/13. President Obama released a statement early morning on 6/17. Prior to that, his State Department had made statements on 6/13, 6/15, and 6/15. that isn’t “weeks”.

I expect better from Assemblyman Hikind.

“our US marine jailed in Mexico for no reason”

Wrong. He got caught trying to take guns into Mexico. Had a Mexican tried to take guns into the US he would get the same treatment.

And because Texas insists on executing Mexicans convicted of murder without allowing them contact with the Mexican consulate, Mexico no longer lets Americans have contact with the American consulate.

Re comments 1 – 10: Why does anyone care about the opinion of a New York State Assemblyman on a matter of US foreign affairs? There are substantial issues affecting New Yorkers – city and state – over which Mr. Hikind, as a state legislator and party leader, does have some authority, but Mr. Hikind knows that his constituents are more interested in his utterly irrelevant comments about US foreign policy than in what needs to be done in his Assembly district or elsewhere in New York. Only nudniks pay attention to Mr. Hikind’s foreign policy opinions, but that seems to be his electoral base.

I wish Hikind would be as active in the Assembly as he is with the media on international issues. Has he written any legislation?

Reply to Dov Hikind, Frum-n-Fair and Eric55:
Everyday in davening we say in Hallelukahs (Tehillim 146):
אל תבטחו בנדיבים, בבן אדם שאין לו תשועה – “Do not rely on on nobles, nor on a human being.” On the words בבן אדם, the Radak says, “Even when rulers help Israel, it is because G-d has influenced them to do so. So it will be when the nations seem to have a hand in the Messianic redemption. When are you going to realize that WE ARE A NATION THAT DWELLS IN SOLITUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Bamidbar 23:9)

P.S. Frum-n-Fair understand that nothing in life is fair!
