Quote of the Day



“It is audacious for President Obama to make such a radical demand on our ally in the very same speech that he acknowledges the merger of the Palestinian National Authority with the terrorist group Hamas. Obama flippantly suggested that "Palestinian leaders will have to provide a credible answer" for this merger. Just imagine our reaction if any nation demanded we negotiate with Al Qaeda!

Obama's statement today seems certain to complicate his relationship with the American Jewish community. Today's Wall Street Journal indicates that his campaign was in damage control mode even before his speech. It is also certain to galvanize America's evangelical supporters of Israel.
