Republicans have been trying to sell American voters on ‘Obama’s anti-Israel Presidency’, however, if you’re in the know and politically savvy then you are well aware that this President has been on a friendly basis with Israel. Obama will be the first sitting U.S. president to be awarded the Presidential Medal of Distinction for, ”a unique and significant contribution to strengthening the State of Israel and the security of its citizens,” according to a release announcing the news.

CNN reports:

When President Barack Obama visits Israel next month, he’ll be awarded the Presidential Medal of Distinction, Israeli President Shimon Peres’ office announced Monday.

Obama, the first sitting U.S. president to receive the recognition, will be awarded the medal for making “a unique and significant contribution to strengthening the State of Israel and the security of its citizens,” according to a release announcing the news.

He’ll receive the award at a dinner at Peres’ residence in Jerusalem, slated to be attended by senior figures from Israeli public life and the Obama administration. The award is given to “private” individuals and organizations that have made “outstanding contributions to bettering the world.”

Please proceed GOP…..

    America. because taking away land from the Natives wasn’t good enough! We take away land from Palestine to give to Jewish people under the ruse of giving them back their homeland to put a stronghold in the Middle East to protect Oil thereby creating an endless rebellion between three major religious extremists groups!

    This is the corporatism that you created, people. This is the Military Industrial Complex that both you Republicans and Democrats have voted in and been too blind to see their game. It’s time to wake up.

      How very anti-semitic of you.

        For the record, I am a very religious Jew who believe with the vast majority of American Jews that Pres Obama has not been overly friendly towards Israel or Jews. Why else would he hang out with people such as Jeremiah wright and Calypso Louie Farrakahn during his Chicago days. I infact have a picture of Obama’s wife have lunch with Farrakhan’s wife in 2004.

        J-street is funded by George Soros and Arabs who work to undermine Israel.

          Well let’s see. Firstly, he doesn’t hang out with Jeremiah Wright. Or Farrakhan, And Israel seems to differ with your sentiments.

          And no, George Soros is not the evil boogeyman in Obama getting this highly respected medal to honor him.
