Obama's 3AM Phone Call

Obama's 3AM Phone Call : Dry Bones cartoon.
During the Hillary Clinton / Barack Obama primary battle, Hillary famously asked whether we'd feel safe with a President Obama answering a crisis phone call at 3AM.

What she was questioning was his sense of judgment. Well, it seems to me that it's 3AM, the phone is ringing, and I'm afraid that for a lot of us it's a wake-up call.

Your thoughts?

You are 100% right, as usual, Mr. Dry Bones. The world needs to catch a wake up fast!
Shabbat Shalom!

Honestly, I am not sure whether it is going to be more dangerous to live in Israel or the United States with Obama at the helm...

Yaakov, Neither Obama nor Hillary Clinton have a clue as to what to do at 3.00 AM or for that matter at any other time.All Obama knows is to hit Israel, America's Best Friend and "Praise our enemies", to "talk with Iran,Venezuela, Cuba, etc.,We are living in America of Orwells 1984 where "Big Brother is Watching Us"Friends are Our enemies, and Our enemies ARE OUR FRIENDS."IT IS A VERY SICKENING STATE OF AFFAIRS

That's stupid!
US has put sanctions on North Korea, Talibans are being pushed back by the Pakistan Army, Tamil Tigers are officially terrorists, etc.

Obama is taking care by diplomacy (because we are not war mongers unlike a certain people...) of all the problems and injustice over the world, including the illegal jewish settlements problem!

"Settlements" are far from illegal. They are legal both under international law AND Jewish Law.

The description of the land God has given to Israel as an inheritance is clearly spelled out in Numbers Chapter 34. Now we might ask "What does God's gift to Israel mean today?" And that is whey the world is in such trouble. HaSatan wants to cheat, steal and rob Israel's inheritance and he appears to have a lot of people and nations on his team including his own people. To be fair, like in many places the scriptures lead us to, the Jewish people themselves join the fray by playing Ha Satan's game with the enemies of Israel. Israel could actually stand on God's promises and not try to "negotiate" with the devil.
Christians can only stand WITH Israel. They can't stand in place of Israel while Israel negotiates away it's own inheritance and puts a noose around its own neck. In some sense Obama is only a symptom of a root problem...Israel's intractable refusal to call on God. God is capable of reducing Israel's enemies to dust.

Hilarious - this is one of my favourites!

And to 'anonymous': get a clue, you twit. Under the only binding international laws the 'settlements' are LEGAL.

Funny how nobody ever condemns the objectively ILLEGAL houses being built by Palestinians in Jerusalem, isn't it...?

Let's face it. For some people, it's just too bad and illegal that Tiberias didn't finish the job, that the Crusades didn't finish the job, that Torquemada didn't finish the job, that the Nazi didn't finish the job, that the Arabs in 1948, 1956, 1967 or 1972 didn't finish the job, or that the PLO didn't finish the job.
The rest of the world can rot for all they care, when millions of people are killed in Dafur, Bosnia, Pakistan, India, Afganistan, that's somehow not illegal and requiring protest, but renovate a kitchen in Kriyat Shemona? ILLEGAL! CALL THE UN! SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION!
News is, it's legal. News is, that 242 does NOT say anything about the location of borders only that they must be negotiated. Not illegal until after negotiations are complete. Waiting 60 years to really start them is obviously our fault.
3:00 am? you hit it right Bones.

The Obamessiah is afraid of the world's bullies so he picks on the one friend of the US in the Middle East. He reminds me of Scud Farkus in the movie The Christmas Story. Is Hillary his Grover Dill?

DB, you have well captured the Obominable One's glaring hypocrisy. Maybe you were too soft on him. I consider his policy against "Jewish settlements" to be anti-Jewish Racism. The old time bigots, some calling themselves Palaeocons, are rejoicing that they have found a man with a brown face to carry out their old anti-Jewish bigotry.

Note the essential agreement between James von Brunn and Rev Wright that "them Jews" control American policy.

The refusal by Washington of building for "natural growth" is blatant Judeophobic hatred and racism. It reminds me of the days when certain upper crusty American suburbs like Grosse Pointe, had a point system for allowing various minority groups [Jews, Blacks and others] to move in. Jews needed a very high number of points.

The policy also reminds me of the British 1939 White Paper policy which not only kept Jews out of the internationally designated Jewish National Home [the mandated territory of Israel] but forbid Jews to buy real estate in the Judea-Samaria zones [actually an area much bigger than Judea-Samaria today, although Jews were allowed to buy real estate in the Jerusalem zone from non-Muslims]. So Obama has returned to the anti-Jewish, anti-Zionist policy of Chamberlain's Britain.

by the way, DB, did you note the poll reported in the JPost today??

Only 6% of Jewish Israelis think that the One is pro-Israel.

DB, wonderful ! The sad thing is it is so true. I am awaiting the emergency sirens to go off at anytime now with someone shouting "INCOMING" over Alaska ! People have been lulled into thinking we are safe in the US, well we are not especially with such an imbecile at the helm. All we can do is pray for God to protect us. He is killing our country daily, and you are very right, he is blantly anti-semitic. He is just a Muslim and will not admit it.
God Bless

Obama is so anti-Israel it's not even funny. American Jews got hoodwinked again. Iran will continue to build its reactors, and sadly it will soon be too late to intervene there. Obama will push Netanyahu on Jerusalem, but hopefully Bibi will remain strong on that and the communities in Judea.

The part you dont have in the cartoon is that once he wakes up at 3am, he will stay up drafting his letter of aplogy to the world for the audacity of the US support for EY.

Hellooo! I warned everyone in my blog before the elections that Barak HUSSEIN Obama was anti Israel and that it was a grave mistake to even think of voting for him. To a man - or a woman - they told me I was crazy. Isn't 20/20 hindsight a wonderful thing?

Not funny,not insightful and not based on any facts. Only serves to prove to Republican Jews that they are correct to pick on Obama over Israel when they are really concerned about their pocketbooks.

Absolutely Serendipitous! A real gem! A series of squares coming together to create something *far* greater than the sum of its parts.

I've never seen such synthesis achieved in so few frames. Truly a snapshot of a point of view which no serious person can hope to deny.

I'd say more, but I think I'm already going to be considered a kind of sycophantic fan or worse, a relative! ;-)

obama was right to pressure israel. i mean you can't build those illegal settlement on palestinian land and at the same time talk that you want peace...

If you are going to post a comment here, get your facts right. If you have not read the international laws, then don't quote them. The fact is that Israeli settlements are not illigal. They are permitted BY LAW. The fact is that of course UN resolutions will be pro-arab. Think about it. One vote for Israel versus One vote for Syria, plus one for Egypt, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, UAE, and various other arab and muslim countries.

If you do not know, do not say!

They have been killing us off for centuries. They have not done a good job because you need someone to blame.

The other reason is that they needed someone to invent IT thingummies.
