O'BAMA Visits AIPAC and Ireland

     The blustering Netanyahu, fulminated with feign anger,( beholden to the 300,000 govt.funded and subsided settlers, armed to the teeth, the irredentist religious right with its racist rabbis, the fascist Lieberman and AIPAC, his amen lobby in the USA, to whom the interests of Israel are paramount, even when they clash with those of the USA) and "disses' the American president, over his mention of "pre 67 borders with land swaps", not bothering to check and see what Obama actually said or that what he said was the policy of of previous presidents. The difference was that Pres. Obama had the courage to say it himself, while the others had their aides say it.
      AIPAC listened and evn cheered the president when he repeated that the dividing line has to be negotiated with accomadation for settlements and Israel's security needs. and a chastened Netanyahu had to make nice. Israel exists and that existence is "rock solid", but the president warned that the survival of Israel is threatened if there is no peace deal. Obama also stated that the Palestinians have tough choices to make also, especially as to the role of Hamas.
     Pres. O'Bama left on his trip to Europe with a stopover in Ireland to visit his ancestral village. The Irish welcome was joyous. He won their hearts and loud cheers and had a pint of Guinness and claimed the apostrophe for his name.It was a much needed respite from a tumultuous week in Washington.
