It seems that when it comes to the Middle East, President Obama can’t win. With blistering criticism from Israelis over his assertion that peace talks with the Palestinians be based on the 1967 borders, this article from Samidoon of the Palestinian Territories rips into Obama as insincere about wanting justice for Arabs, and criticizes America for long favoring Arab despots and Israel.
For Samidoon, Dr. Abdul Alsutar Kassem writes in part:
America is now attempting to adapt to the new Arab circumstances. Having proven willing to trash Arab rulers, they are now attempting to deceive people in order to win their trust. The Americans see the victories of the Arab peoples and the courage of the Arabs as a threat to their interests. They realize that confronting the people didn’t work and believe the best approach is to win the affection of the people through hypocrisy, deceit, lies and betrayal.
America has committed many crimes against Arabs and Muslims – and we don’t trust her. The U.S. president intends to continue to support Israeli crimes and back its security. He speaks of Arab terrorism and Israel’s security, while Israel continues its aggression not only against the Palestinian people but all peoples in the region.
For this reason, we must take care not to allow Obama’s eloquent speeches to mislead us. It is important to know that Arab friendship and his commitment to Israel can never coincide. If the American president wants the love of the Arabs, he must abandon Israel first.
