Is anyone surprised?

Gateway Pundit's Jim Hoft with the latest ... Breaking: WHITE HOUSE SIDES WITH HAMAS!… Says Gaza Blockade Unsustainable.

Remember when Benjamin Netanyahu visited the White House in March and was snubbed by Barack Obama? Dismayed Americans spoke up at the time.

Will this President destroy the friendship between Israel and America?

Ed Koch: "Obama ... willing to throw Israel under the bus"

Rush Limbaugh talked Friday about former New York Mayor Ed Koch's extreme disappointment in President Barack Obama's recent rude treatment at the White House of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu:

"I have been a supporter of President Obama and went to Florida for him, urged Jews all over the country to vote for him saying that he would be just as good as John McCain on the security of Israel. I don't think it's true anymore," Koch told Fox News' Neil Cavuto.

Mr. Koch also expressed disappointment with Congress' silence on Israel's treatment by the Obama administration, as reported by Fox News:

Koch said he's shocked that Congress, which largely supports Israel hasn't "stood up and said to the president, 'you're wrong on this, Mr. President.'"

He bluntly expressed his opinion about Barack Obama to Neil Cavuto:

"I believe that the Obama administration is willing to throw Israel under the bus in order to please Muslim nations," Koch said. "We'll know when I'm right or wrong."

Many were shocked at the President's treatment of Mr. Netanyahu but Mr. Koch laid it on the table in no uncertain terms. This president has been photographed bowing to Muslim heads of state which may make many wonder about his allegiance to Israel.

Binyamin Netanyahu ... defender of freedom

Netanyahu: Profile of a leader

I am ashamed of the words coming out of the mouth of Barack Obama when he is in the presence of world leaders. It is reminiscent of the kid on the playground who strives to fit in with the cool kids ... and so he says and does whatever he thinks will impress them.

In Obama's effort to be a "cool kid" to the rest of the world -- or, perhaps I should say, to our enemies -- he is selling us out, criticizing our great country that so many fought and died for, and placing blame on us for any number of perceived short-fallings. He ignores his true and loyal friends ... Great Britain, Poland, Chechslavakia.

And then along comes a leader so strong and powerful in his remarks that the world stops ... leans in ... and listens: "Have ... you ... no ... shame?"

Thank God for men like Benjamin Netanyahu.

Update: The Washington Times has the entire transcript of Benjamin Netanyahu's remarks at the United Nations.
