With Barack Obama’s Rose Garden statement on Saturday, the Israeli website Marriv is reporting that an unnamed diplomat official in Jerusalem bluntly called Barack Obama a “coward” for stepping back from an attack on Syria.
“Obama is a coward; it is obvious that he does not want to attack and is looking for reinforcement [for this approach]. It is hard to believe that after Congress turns down his request, he will go on an operation like this on his own, without support from the international community, without the support of public opinion and without Congress,” the source said.
The site went on to say that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to see specific action by America in Syria and restore credibility and strengthen the American deterrence in the region.
Maariv reported:
“Netanyahu wants to attack American symbolize the centrality of the U.S. in the region and will also through a strong message against Iran and extremists in the region. PMO estimated that the American government under the presidency of President Barack Obama wants to reduce the military presence in the region and get involved in wars in the region. However, the desire to engage in domestic issues and foreign policy move focus from the Middle East to the Far East. Despite the differences between the crisis in Syria and Iranian nuclear program,
Netanyahu fears American hesitancy to act Syria sends a negative message to Iran that the U.S. military will not act to stop its nuclear program. According to the sources, it is difficult to avoid the impression that following the American hesitancy Israel will probably be left alone and forced to act alone against Iran without U.S. Israeli officials estimated negative impact of U.S. hesitancy will also increase the motivation of extremists like Hezbollah in the Middle East.
Some estimated that Obama’s reference to Congress is an attempt to buy time to find diplomatic solutions to prevent an attack. One possibility is that Assad will destroy or transfer its chemical weapons arsenal to Russia or another country at a price of no attack. Several senior diplomats said that Assad forwarded messages in this regard to the Russians. However, no official confirmation.”
While I understand Israel’s concern about a weak American president, and most definitely agree that Barack Obama is a coward, the fact is that we should not be engaged in military attacks in Syria and we certainly should not be doing it without Congress making a declaration of war. We don’t even know who has chemical weapons and who doesn’t. In fact, the growing evidence suggests that it is not Assad that has been using chemical weapons, but rather the Syrian rebels (al-Qaeda).
So, while I’m glad this unnamed official called Obama what he is, he’s wrong to be demanding the United States step in and begin military strikes, when we are not threatened by what is taking place in Syria and to join in attacks on the side of known jihadists (Syrian rebels) is far worse then simply keeping our nose out of it. In fact, strikes may actually endanger the US, seeing that we really don’t have the money for military action in the first place.
Simply put, Syria is not a national security issue for the United States.
Zionist Elite manipulation. I have no value for Muslims nor for Zionists
TJB – Typical Jew Behavior: Speaking like a petulant child that didn’t get what they wanted for their birthday. Imagine no jew stranglehold on our country. It’s easy if you try.
Stan, it is easier for me to visualize you with your white burka on. burning crosses and spewing your Supremist bullshit at the local Klan rally. By the way, how’s that Obama Hope and Change working out for you and the other Klan clones?
Ltpar… you are SOooo far, off base, that you are laughable.
Totally clueless on that assumption.
DDearborn——-good breakdown.
More name calling from the warmongering, psychopathic, malignant narcissist? The jig is up for these scum. Israel is in the crosshairs of the world…so they try to provoke someone else to do their bidding for them.
Don’t worry about Israel, they can take care of themselves. What you should be worrying about is the United States, as we slowly circle the toilet bowl waiting for the final flush. It is Amreica that is in the cross hairs of our enemies foreign and domestic, who want to turn us into a New World Order. If that happens, all bets are off and it will be every man for himself in a fight for the survival of the fittest. Are you prepared for that scenario?
American Soldier from a poor class or vanishing middle class go and DIE for Israel in that Middle East Cemetary Sandbox! We will replace your Cowardly Dictator Obummer with another Zionist Puppet so they can send more of your Countrymen to be Cannon Fodder for the Self Chosen People.

Hmmm
Talk about hypocrites!!! Israel has ordered the destruction by the US of every single country in the region that stands in their way of controlling the entire Middle East. And yet……..Israel has not spent a shekel of their own money or shed the blood of a single Jew. (at least publicly)
Truly it is the weasels in Tel Aviv that hide in the background while screaming for everyone else to fight for them. Israel can go to hell. . Of course they have nukes but in case anybody has been paying attention they have gotten their butts kicked in the last 2 straight up conventional fights. It is no wonder they want the US to do their dirty work.They are not just cowards, they are evil war mongering terrorists who don’t have the guts nor the ability to fight for themselves. If Israel wants war then those chickensh*ts can damn well fight it AND PAY FOR IT themselves!
