Anti-Obama Rally in Jerusalem
(IsraelNN.com) For the first time in years, the nationalist camp will hold a large scale rally against United States policies vis-à-vis Israel.

The protest will be held in downtown Jerusalem, on Agron St. on Monday evening, and is being organized by the Residents Committees of Binyamin and Samaria, as well as the nationalist umbrella organization Mateh Maamatz, the Yesha Council of Jewish Communities, and Komemiyut.

Knesset Members and others representing various parties, including the Likud, will speak.

“Not since the days of Kissinger has there been such a protest against American policies,” said MK Yaakov Katz (Ketzaleh), chairman of the National Union party. “The pressure that Barack Hussein Obama is exerting against us to simply stop growing and stop living will not work.”

The Obama administration has made it clear that Israel must stop building of all types throughout Judea and Samaria (Yesha), as well as in parts of Israel’s capital city that were liberated during the Six Day War of 1967.

1. One thing I'm glad Obama is doing...he's not letting Israel or their lobby
scare him into blind support.

2. Agreed. Also, a workable solution to I/P will involve many
compromises. I would expect protests from both sides as the process continues.

3. They got themselves into the mess. Not capable of resolving the issue on their own apparently.
So someone has to take the bull by the horns.
