Is Obama trying to impress Jewish voters with his recent trip to Israel?

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20080723...deastdiplomacy

Nah, he is just trying to make up for a complete lack of any foreign policy experience in a short time by going around the world making his empty promises to everyone. The man is really clueless running around the world acting as if he is already elected...that is just asking for problems down the road for nomatter who gets elected.

I really cant stand these two candidates, they are clueless, dont represent our best interests, and have no business being candidates of a "major" party.

I do not support McCain or Obama, please refrain from making the assumption that because I post something negative about your candidate, that I must be supporting the other. We do have more than 2 people running for president.

The worst part about this photo shoot is that the leaders in Israel, Jordan, and the US generals and soldiers don't even like Obama they are just being diplomatic so when their photo is used it appears that they are supporting him when it is the exact opposite. Look at his poll numbers in Israel and amoung the military they are horrible.

Why should he need to when he already has such a track record of support? He co-sponsored the Palestinian Anti-Terrorism Act, he joined with several others in sending a letter calling on the European Union to add Hezbollah to its list of terrorist groups, he has sent other letters to Bush in regards to not legitimizing Hamas, and supports the state of Israel.

In January, he sent a letter to the U.N. heavily critical of its unwillingness to denounce Hamas' rocket attackes against Israeli civilians in southern Israel.


In addition, he has promoted divestment from Iran, and is on record as opposing Iran's nuclear ambitions as well as the proxy wars it conducts.


With a track record like that, why should he have to impress anybody?

to try and make up for a lack of foreign policy.....get some photo time.....some tv time....images sell......people eat that sh!t up....especially americans and obama knows this.....why else would he invite the entire media circus to go along for the ride......?

Obama does not have toinvite this "media circus", since the media will follow the presidential candidate wherever he goes.

Looks like you have nothing to counter his actual record, and so are grasping at any convenient partisan straw within your grasp in order to attack him.

There is no need. Do you think Jews, a massively liberal demographic, would even think of voting for McCain?

so he does NOT ligitimizing Hamas....Hamas was elected by the people.........the people chose Hamas.....why...because maybe the Palestinians are tired of Israel stealing all their sh!t.....and he opposes Iran's nuclear ambitions.....who is Obama to say that another country can NOT develop nuclear energy

Yes a big enough number will in states like Florida where national security and Israel is the prime concern.

There is a visceral distrust and resentment, based on very, very little in reality, that will disallow the vast majority of Jews to vote Republican ever.
