Susan Rice Slams Israeli Ambassador for Attending Jewish Republican Event

If only Israelis converted en masse to Islam, they could finally get better treatment from this administration.
Obama administration National Security Adviser Susan Rice rudely mocked Israel’s ambassador during a recent meeting with an American Jewish leader.
Rice, who is known to dislike the Israeli government, was asked in a recent meeting with a top American Jewish leader why she had not taken meetings with Israeli Ambassador Ron Dermer.
The president’s top aide then mocked Dermer and conservative casino magnate Sheldon Adelson.
“Besides, I understood that he’s too busy traveling to Sheldon Adelson’s events in Las Vegas,” Rice reportedly said with contempt.
Rice, Haaretz reported, “was referring to Dermer’s exceptional attendance as guest of honor at a gathering of the Republican Jewish Coalition in March.
As I wrote earlier, Obama Inc. views Netanyahu as a domestic political opponent and Israelis as a quasi-Republican political opposition. This kind of pettiness stems from that attitude.
Obama Inc. tiptoes around Iran, Cuba and Russia. You don’t see it making snide remarks about North Korea. But it’s a perpetual open season on Israel.
