U.S. Fears a Ground War in Gaza Could Hurt Israel and Help Hamas

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is increasingly concerned about the escalating violence in Gaza, believing that a ground incursion by Israel there could lead to increased civilian casualties, play into the hands of the militant Palestinian group Hamas and inflict further damage to Israel’s standing in the region at an already tumultuous time.

Though President Obama uttered immediate and firm public and private assurances that Israel has a right to defend itself from rocket attacks emanating from Gaza, administration officials have been privately urging Israeli officials not to extend the conflict, a move that many American officials believe could benefit Hamas.

Obama is worried about Israel’s standing in the region? Somehow, I just don’t believe that. I am of the belief that Obama KNOWS that Israel can wipe the Palestinians off the face of the earth and THAT is his concern.

Obama doesn’t want to see his Muslim brothers hurt and killed.

In “Audacity of Hope” Obama writes: “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.” The quote comes from page 261 of the paperback edition of “The Audacity of Hope”.

Barack Obama will take the side of Islam; that is a known fact, he has said so in his writings and I believe him in this.

Obama supporters try to say that the quote used as citation to this belief is highly misunderstood and taken out of context. I disagree; I believe that Obama’s supporters are always attempting to show him in a good light. I will always believe that Obama meant exactly what he said about standing with the Muslims.

As to Israel and their already fragile relationships with Egypt and Jordan, if Egypt and Jordan would do the RIGHT thing, and back decency and human rights, as opposed to them backing the 7th century beliefs of Islam and Hamas, there would be no fragile relationship.

If the centuries of ingrained hatred that Muslims have for Jews and Christians could be changed this would be a much different world, but that change has to start within the Muslims themselves.

    What Obama fears is that Israel will destroy Hamas, and Egypt will attack Israel. Israel will defeat Egypt (again), take control of the Sinai (again) and then go after Hizbollah in the north.

    Obama will probably try for a no-fly zone over Gaza but here is the catch: How many downed American flyers are we willing to allow?

    Israel needs to ignore Obama and go about killing as many muslims as required to maintain its security and sovereignty.

  3. Lee says:

    I hope Israel nukes the whole damn muslim region, which is what we should have done 1o years ago,,, problem would have been solved,,,,oturdhead will of course side with and support his muslim brothers,,,he has said so numerous times,,,

  4. Right Handed Cowboy says:

    The anointed one will say he will support Isreal, but all he will continue to so is throw them under the bus. By the way how many trips has the Muslim President made to Israel, ZERO, and he will not go. wonder why that is.

  5. BobF says:

    Obama’s worried about Israel’s standing in the region? Let’s see? Israel is surrounded by countries which have vowed to eliminate them as a nation and people for over 65 years and Obama is concerned about their “standing”? Is he nuts?

  6. Bloviating Zeppelin says:

    When people TELL you things and they are unequivocal and unambiguous, they usually MEAN them:

    Obama: ““I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”

    Ahmadinejad: “Our dear Imam (referring to Ayatollah Khomeini) said that the occupying regime must be wiped off the map and this was a very wise statement. ”

    Just as I would take Ahmadinejad at face value, so would I that of Barack Hussein Obama.

    And no one talks about U.N. Rice ant-Israel tirades she makes. Just in case anyone still was wondering where the administration stands.

  8. mrchuck says:

    Obama and Rice are now in deep shit for purposing changing General Petraeous’s analysis as to who caused the killing of the 4 Americans in Libya!!!
    Wonder what this corrupt muslim loving white house will say now???

    Ogabe the blamer is merely practicing Islamic Al Taqiya, a concept based on Quran 328 and 16:103 as well as hadith, tasfir, literature and judicial commentaries that permit and encourage precautionary dissimulation as a means for hiding true faith in times of persecution “or” deception when penetrating the enemy camp. This has been used since the 7th century by Muslims to confuse and split “the enemy”. There are really two messages in his “proclamations” one to non-muslims and one to the rest of the world (smoke screens).

    BTW that’s Quran 3:28 … durn fingers.
