| Obama to Israel: Apologize to Turkey..or else |
| 2011-08-18 |
| HT AOSHQ sidebar Israel's largest daily newspaper, Yediot Ahronot, reported on Wednesday that the Obama Administration is threatening Israel to either apologize to Turkey over its bloody interception of a Gaza aid flotilla last year, or risk strained ties with Washington. Israeli diplomats in Washington told the newspaper that they had received a communique from US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton insisting that the rift between Israel and Turkey was harming American interests in the region, such as affecting regime change in neighboring Syria Boy howdy. Those vigorous efforts at regime change in Syria? A frankly worded communique? Tell Hill and Zero to f*ck off. They are short-termers and need the Jooo vote next year. Call the Erdogan thug/Islamist regime for what it is and DON'T apologize |

| #2 Best thing Israel could do in the long run is make this row highly visible to the Jewish-American community to cut off their love for Obama. |
