All -- Obama's mideast policy collapse is a very strong world would you use it took look at the facts June 2009 President Obama is coming to the Middle East.
In the coming to the vote is going to Egypt.
He's delivering this speech in -- really -- we wanna open a new era and which in my hand to -- he's trying to appease.
The -- missiles and what's happening today to yield after that.
It is collapsing President Obama tried to appease the -- -- and the need to lift.
This so that the into the week end look what's happened don't follow the US seem to be strong in the -- -- afraid of the united -- the -- -- And they LA break event you can rely when you.
Who -- different look at the pictures they enemies are not afraid anymore from the united they've already got.
And then -- making event we are able -- we can rely on the US when you come to the usual for you on those are strong words mister speaker.
Very high what playbook before it's with a picture of that we're seeing now with -- what's happening in media they needed ice for the way that built Obama is going.
Any -- defaults -- the Israelis I think we'll make concessions he tilted.
Has he tilted towards the Muslim world -- so passing I think he when he was elected.
You wanted to change the porch after that whether the bush but he took it to shout.
And now I think may be to be too -- to -- it because it's within the Middle -- be put on not afraid people think he can push either to make concessions.
And we know we didn't really think that -- enabled if you shall sign of weakness if you dangerous.
Now President Obama spoke by phone for at least an hour I believe overnights.
Was last -- in the middle of the night -- in the last 36 hours spoke to mr.
Netanyahu.
For an ally.
What was the outcome of that phone -- you know.

Full file the schedule for the president is not allowing a meeting I hope that would be a meeting because.
This threat to the Middle East about the threat only to Jews in Israel -- -- -- the American people as little so -- fighting against the value between present so we know that there was not going to be a meeting.
Then the -- don't -- -- -- phone conversation in the middle of the night but there is still not going to be a meeting.
I believe it would be anything I think President Obama cannot let out -- fifth -- -- -- elections when you see the crisis in the Middle East.
Without meeting that plan is still for the only LA as we speak you have a -- and all the embassies in the Middle East in one place which is safe.
If you the embassy in Tel Aviv.
Okay in the last election 2008.
The Jewish vote in the United States went 78%.
To President Obama.
Would you speculate on the size of the Jewish vote for President Obama in 2012.
-- -- the health quote I'm looking -- indemnity company elections I am not -- Republican on Democrat and a pro Israeli.
But if you ask me about the policy of President Obama regarding Israel I would tell you President Obama was not -- -- -- -- the fact that he may broke.
I give it examples of everything indeed he pushed us -- to -- -- you want that the left wrinkle fish in go back to 67 lines.
We get into it by with them that they know with really strong it today you have the support of the people including extending all of the issues.
OK I want told very briefly about your book.
Or if I look across the Muslim world of North Africa I -- politics and chaos.
If I look at Israel -- book tells me.
That you -- thriving that you have a vigorous and dynamic economy that's growing done right -- a very strong economy what you grocery.
It's 6% six besides going up and implemented about 6%.
And I think that the only reason is that multiply -- -- when you come to me than you think technology I think.
Or -- anything that -- people who don't like even the using this these -- key to living within the needs of it might put cheap cats -- you name meet the innovation that is amazing.
Almost like -- Silicon Valley in California and that's what you wanna do when you -- a lot in.
