While the whole world, even concerned Israelis, are up in arms and deeply concerned about the devastating crisis that has more than a million Palestinians without power, food and basic neccessities in life, Obama's concern is for the treacherous Israeli government that is causing the untold humanitarian crisis on the Palestinians. In the letter below he implores the UN to not condemn Israel but to make sure they condemn Hamas for rocket assaults against the Israelis who have been consistently bombing Palestinians and launching missile attacks against civilians. To Obama, Hamas has no right to defend themselves. Although there has been no casualties on the Israeli side from the rocket attacks, there have been hundreds of casualties on the Palestinian side as a results of the persistent Israeli attacks. What most fail to realize is that blaming Hamas for rocket attacks is just an excuse for what the Israelis were doing all along and will continue to do. With or without rocket attacks the Israeli has done and will continue to do the same thing. As one insightful thinker said regarding the claims of rocket attacks from the Palestinians: "Either the Palestinians; in 60 years of conflict; have not yet learned to aim properly, or those rockets are being fired by the IDF to where nobody will be harmed" False flag operations are an Israeli specialty and one they have been caught doing untold number of times. Obama: Israel was forced to close Gaza Haaretz Wed., January 23, 2008 Rosner's Blog Shmuel Rosner Chief U.S. Correspondent 1.23.2008 The letter from the Senator to the Ambassador speaks for itself: Dear Ambassador Khalilzad, I understand that today the UN Security Council met regarding the situation in Gaza, and that a resolution or statement could be forthcoming from the Council in short order. I urge you to ensure that the Security Council issue no statement and pass no resolution on this matter that does not fully condenm the rocket assault Hamas has been conducting on civilians in southern Israel... All of us are concerned about the impact of closed border crossings on Palestinian families. However, we have to understand why Israel is forced to do this... Israel has the right to respond while seeking to minimize any impact on civilians. The Security Council should clearly and unequivocally condemn the rocket attacks... If it cannot bring itself to make these common sense points, I urge you to ensure that it does not speak at all. Sincerely, Barack Obama United States Senator (RAINnote: I was wondering whether this story was true and then found it here also: http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/140293: <http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/140293> ) http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/rosnerBlog.jhtml?itemNo=865078: <http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/pages/rosnerBlog.jhtml?itemNo=865078>
