Seven Reasons Obama Was the Most Anti-Israel President Ever

Editor’s note: This article was originally published in 2018.

The tragic massacre carried out in a Synagogue in Pittsburgh was immediately politicized by liberals who wanted to blame the tragedy on President Donald Trump’s “rhetoric.” What rhetoric exactly? Nobody seems to know – nor do they mention that he has a Jewish daughter and son in law.

Still, that hasn’t stopped the groupthink in the media from mindlessly pointing the finger at the President.

It’s ironic because President Trump is arguably the most pro-Israel President in American history – and their demi-God Obama is arguably the worst. Obama was at least lucky enough to have a media gushing over his every move. If President Trump took some of the exact same actions as Obama did towards Israel, the allegations of “anti-Semitism” would never end.

Let’s review just a few examples of why Obama was the most anti-Israel President ever.

1: Interfering in Israel’s Elections

In May the American Center for Law and Justice released documents showing that the Obama administration interfered in the 2015 Israeli elections in an attempt to defeat Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, then misled Congress about it. Obama’s State Department provided hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to a pair of non-profit groups who funneled that money towards defeating Netanyahu.

2: Unilaterally Funding the Palestinians

According to the Associated Press:

“Officials say the Obama administration in its waning hours defied Republican opposition and quietly released $221 million to the Palestinian Authority that GOP members of Congress had been blocking.

A State Department official and several congressional aides said the outgoing administration formally notified Congress it would spend the money Friday morning. The official said former Secretary of State John Kerry had informed some lawmakers of the move shortly before he left the State Department for the last time Thursday. The aides said written notification dated Jan. 20 was sent to Congress just hours before Donald Trump took the oath of office.”

3: Anti-Israel UN Vote

During a 2017 interview, Obama told “60 Minutes” that he was behind the U.S.’s decision to abstain from a vote at the U.N. condemning Israeli settlements. Usually, the U.S. is the only country to stand by Israel’s side.

4: Jerusalem Embassy

While he was hardly the only President to fall through on this promise, Barack Obama did declare that Jerusalem must be considered the Israeli capital. He then proceeded to take no actions to ensure that Jerusalem would be recognized as Israel’s capital. Trump did so – and then released a video mocking Obama and prior Presidents for not following through on their promise.

5: 1967 borders

Obama called for Israel to return to their 1967 borders, which he alleged would help broker peace with the Palestinians.

It wouldn’t. We already know what happens to Israel when they give up territory. After Israel relinquished control of the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians, they immediately elected Hamas, a terrorist organization with Jewish genocide as a component of their founding charter. The countless rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip continue to this day.

6: Bribing Iran?

Not only did Obama sign a nuclear deal with Iran, one of Israel’s greatest enemies, he also sweetened the deal. As the 2015 Iran nuclear deal was being negotiated, the Obama administration sent $1.7 billion in cash to the government of Iran. Not coincidentally, that cash payment happened right as a number of American prisoners in Iran were released.

The Obama administration tried to deny that the payment was a ransom. That story quickly imploded.

7: A Free Pass for Hezbollah

Obama decided to give the anti-Israel terrorist organization Hezbollah a free pass when it came to their criminal activity (among other heinous actions). A shocking expose published in Politico last year documented how former Obama officials have been accused of shutting down a task force targeting a cocaine operation run by the terrorist group Hezbollah, in an effort to secure the Iran nuclear deal.

The Hezbollah terrorist organization, backed by Iran, reportedly developed into “an international crime syndicate” that some investigators believed was collecting $1 billion a year from drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering, and other criminal activities.

Read this tweet and thought “wow I can’t believe @LegInsurrection is printing such tabloid nonsense…” then I read the piece and GUYS OBAMA ALLOWED HEZBOLLAH TO RUN COCAINE INTO THE US TO SUPPORT THE IRAN DEAL https://t.co/ApQc3Mm1Wq

Can you think of any more examples?

I’m sure I missed a hundred of them.
