The Most Equal Comrade may not hate Israel, but it's fine with him if it's destroyed by those who do

He really penned this dog vomit:

Nobel Peace Prize winner Barack Obama draws on the deep well of his wisdom and his foreign policy successes to instruct Israelis on the path to peace in today’s Haaretz column “Peace is the only true path to security for Israel and the Palestinians.” Warning: Reading may induce nausea.

“In President Abbas, Israel has a counterpart committed to a two-state solution and security cooperation with Israel,” Obama writes. Benjamin Netanyahu? The observant reader — such as Josh Lederman, the author of this AP story — will note that Obama offered no parallel praise for Netanyahu. He also omits any mention of the peaceniks in Gaza barraging Israel with rockets.

Because of the ludicrous timing of Obama’s column, Haaretz emphasizes: “This article was written for Haaretz’s Israel Conference on Peace before June 30, 2014.” Obama’s wisdom, however, is timeless. It can’t have proved obsolete in a matter of days, can it?

Obama has not yet publicly embraced Hamas. He simply ignores it. Hamas doesn’t rate a mention. Obama’s silence regarding Hamas is the midpoint on his journey toward the post-presidential phase of Jimmy Carter’s career as a Middle East peacemaker.

Abbas is such a peacenik that the media under his control via Fatah or the Palestinian Authority regularly call for the extinction of Israel. Palestinian Media Watch makes the work of the Palestinian media accessible in English and interested observers can witness the phenomenon for themselves.

I guess we should expect this kind of hideous worldview from an admirer of Rashid Khalidi and Edward Said.

UPDATE: Haaretz keeps up the self-flagellation with a flurry of articles, and a conference featuring their authors, asserting that Judaism is a bigger threat to the Mideast than ISIS, Hamas or Iran:

 in the collection of articles assembled by Haaretz to accompany the conference, you will find Gideon Levy, one of the paper’s resident anti-Zionists, declaring preposterously that “a Jewish state means a racist, nationalistic state, meant for Jews only.” You will find an official Haaretz editorial insisting that the murderers of the Palestinian teenager, Mohammed Abu Khdeir, are the “descendants and builders of a culture of hate and vengeance that is nurtured and fertilized by the guides of ‘the Jewish state.’” And you will find a longer meditation on the same theme by Avraham Burg, the scion of a leading Zionist family and the former Speaker of the Knesset, who concludes that the root of Israel’s problem lies (as he describes it) in the anti-gentile culture that distinguishes the Jewish faith.

Self-hatred seems to infect society in every Western nation these days.
