Update: Why didn't the kidnapping and murders of three Jewish teens, one of whom (Naftali Frenkel) was American, elicit the same sort of response from Obama and his Missus as some other terrible events involving young people have? Ben Shapiro has some thoughts on the subject:
Presumably Frenkel did not look enough like Barack Obama’s imaginary son for him to give a damn. Or perhaps Frenkel hadn’t deserted his duty in the American military, and therefore his parents didn’t deserve a White House press conference. Maybe Michelle Obama was too busy worrying about children’s fat thighs to spend a moment tweeting out a selfie to raise awareness.Shapiro has a suggestion re how Israelis should respond to Obama and his minions:
The Obama administration’s first response [to the murder of three Jewish teenagers]: to call on the Israeli government for restraint. State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said on June 2, “Based on what we know now, we intend to work with this government.” Now, just a month later, that government has murdered an American kid. And now she says that the Obama administration hopes “that the Israelis and the Palestinians continue to work with one another on that, and we certainly would continue to urge that … in spite of, obviously, the tragedy and the enormous pain on the ground.”
To which the proper Israeli response should be: go perform anatomically impossible acts upon yourself.Update: "A culture that celebrates kidnapping is not fit for statehood."
When Obama became pres in 2009 the money towards the PA nearly doubled to $900 million plus.
