Rosy, You're Doing A Heckuva Job!
February 21, 2012
Looks like the most anti-Israel president in U.S. history, President Barack Obama (Jimmy Carter comes in a close second) is confirmed to speak at the upcoming annual AIPAC conference, which includes "more than 12,000 pro-Israel Americans" (according to an AIPAC announcement).
Oh joy, and thanks for making our day (NOT).
What part of anti-Israel do these "pro-Israel Americans" not get?
Probably the same part that allowed them to choose Chicago entrepreneur, Lee "Rosy" Rosenberg, as their new AIPAC president. Mr. Rosenberg, according to the Washington Post, was one of President Obama's staunchest Jewish allies during the 2008 presidential campaign, as well as one of his earliest political backers. He advised the president on foreign policy in the Middle East and Israel, and to that I would say: Rosy, you're doing a heckuva job!!

"Mr. Netanyahu is one of the most media-savvy politicians on the planet. On Friday he appeared live via video link on 'Real Time with Bill Maher,' taking the host’s alternately sardonic and serious line of questioning with gazelle-like alacrity."
~ Anthony Grant, jourrnalist who has written for many major newspapers and worked in television at Paris and Tel Aviv, interviewing former PM Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday, at the outset of Mr. Netanyahu's new book (more here).
