Analysis: Obama tries new tack with Israel, reaching out to wary public - Yahoo! News

WASHINGTON/JERUSALEM (Reuters) - After nearly four years of often testy relations with Benjamin Netanyahu, U.S. President Barack Obama is about to try a different tack - going over the head of Israel's prime minister and appealing directly to the Israeli people.

Obama's first presidential visit to Israel next week, while certainly including meetings with Netanyahu, will focus heavily on resetting his relationship with the country's wary public as he seeks to reassure them he is committed to their security and has their interests at heart.

All signs are that Obama hopes the strategy will give him more leverage with the right-wing Netanyahu - politically weakened by January's election in which centrists made surprising gains - to pursue a peaceful resolution with Iran and eventually address the Israeli-Palestinian stalemate...



..Obama faces the challenge of overcoming Israeli suspicions that have lingered since his early days in office when he pressed Netanyahu for a freeze on settlement expansion and launched a short-lived outreach to Tehran, Israel's arch-foe.

On top of that, Obama - known for his cool, detached public persona - rarely comes across with the kind of "I feel your pain" diplomacy that Bill Clinton used to charm Israelis and Palestinians alike during his presidency.

Even so, some Middle East experts say Obama may be able to take advantage of an opening to build public confidence in Israel, the first foreign destination of his second term.

His visit comes at a time when U.S. and Israeli strategic concerns seem more closely aligned than they have been in years, with the West's nuclear standoff with Iran at a critical stage and Syria's civil war seen as a threat to regional stability.

"There's no substitute for actually being there," said Dennis Ross, Obama's former Middle East adviser. "It's an opportunity for him to connect with the Israeli psyche."

But there is also the risk of a disconnect.

Many Israelis will be looking to Obama for firmer reassurance of his resolve to do what is deemed necessary, including the use of military force, to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb. Iran denies such ambitions.

If there is one thing Obama knows, it's how to undermine infrastructure with propaganda. By the time he's done, no one will know who to trust.

 

[Truthmatters]

yeah becuase the rights cowboy policy sure worked great huh?


Pretending to see failure where there is very little of it and pretending to see sucess where there was very little of it is why your historically failed ideas always fail

Right, since Obama is so popular with the Israeli people and has such a great track record with Israel over the last four years of his presidency, he's going to show them that his words are more important than his actions.

Power seems to corrupt everyone, it does not matter who it is or who they said they were or what they said they once stood for.

Mister Neutral Observer, enlighten us please, when was the last time an American fought or died for Israel?

 

[Katzndogz]

The people of Israel will pay more attention to what obama has to say because obama is black and if they don't mind him, they will all be racists.

What will impact the average Israeli more that obama's lies is the fact that obama has cozied up to muslim extremists so much that he let our ambassador be killed and has Iranians in his regime.

So, according to this logic, Americans are fighting and dying for the Saudis because we sold them some F-18's, right?

So if we have Americans and the other forces in NATO manning these Patriot Missiles and the Syrian Air Force or the rebels bomb the sites, should we also say that Americans and European forces are dying for Turkey?

And don't forget that not only have we sold the Saudis F-18's, but we also sold them the AWACS and who knows what else.

I cannot help but think about the faith of The Crusaders, and how, once upon a time, faith led them to enter cities and slay every Arab man and woman and child.

I think Pride is the problem. They had much faith.

Antioch: "Wherever the European Christians found Arab and Muslim women in the city, they ran their lances through their bellies. All the men and women and children who tried to flee in the heavy rain through muddy back alleyways were tracked down by the European knights and slaughtered on the spot. As the day wounded down, cries of pleading, fear, and agony from the dying, injured, and fleeing Arabs and Muslims were gradually replaced by loud, cheerful off-key singing of the drunken Crusaders who were by then plundering the entire city of Antioch at will."

Did Israel Lead the US into the War on Iraq?



By Mitchell Plitnick, Director of Education and Policy, Jewish Voice for Peace; Joel Beinin, Professor of Middle East Studies at Stanford University; and Cecilie Surasky, Director of Communications, Jewish Voice for Peace

As the war on Iraq rages on with no end in sight, the scandals around its beginnings continue to proliferate. Because of these scandals, one question now being revisited is the role the state of Israel may have played in initiating the invasion of Iraq.
Israel's role is debated whenever American policy in the Middle East is discussed. This is inevitable, because Israel is America’s key ally in the region and because the Israel-Palestine conflict is the focal point of attention for virtually anyone who cares about the Mideast. Some critics of the war on Iraq maintain that the decision to go to war was made largely to advance Israeli interests. Others maintain that Israel had nothing to do with it. The evidence suggests, however, that neither of these views is accurate.

Did Israel Lead the US into the War on Iraq? | Jewish Voice for Peace

The neocons and Israeli support for the war We know that the Iraq invasion was pushed forcefully by the neo-conservatives in the Bush Administration. Many of the neocons are Jewish, though not all of them. But when it comes to US Mideast policy, there is virtually no disagreement among them in relying on a powerful Israel as a key component. This, in and of itself, would fly in the face of the notion that Israel and Israeli interests were completely removed from the decision to invade Iraq.

Radio Islam, huh? How is it that a "Christian" is listening to RADIO ISLAM?

You can inform radio Islam that the yesterday's Crusaders and Nazis are today's Islamic Jihadists.

Why, Frau Sherri, the Muslims who murdered over two million Christians in Sudan were very devout. Same with the Muslims who murdered millions of Nigerian Christians. And let us not forget that the Muslims who murdered over 3 million in Bangladesh (mainly Hindu) were also devout too. No doubt those Arab Muslims who were the cause of 300,000 Black Muslims in Darfur to perish considered themselves devout too. And let us not forget that Al Qaeda and the Taliban think they are the most devout Muslims of any group, and they probably have much pride in that. Perhaps Frau Sherri doesn't think that the group Boko Haram who are busy killing Christians nowadays in Nigeria has no pride. Does Frau Sherri think that the site RadioIslam is ever going to mention what the Muslims have done to others?

Why, Phillip, everyone is entitled to his opinion. I am sure you will agree to that. This author seems to have a different opinion than the author of your piece.
