"GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN, LET THOSE PALESTINIANS FREE"

Why would President Obama stand up at the United Nations and reiterate propaganda about
Arabs waging war on Israel that every reasonable person on the planet saw through decades ago?

Why would President Obama go back on his own position of only a year ago, when he supported Palestinian Statehood, and called for Israel to halt the illegal settlements on the occupied West Bank?

Why would President Obama decide to further sour ties with the Arab world at a time when  it looks very much as if the tides may be changing, as political institutions installed and upheld by the US and the West are being overthrown. 

Well, the first rule of detecting, is to ask "Who stands to gain from this state of affairs?"

As usual this line of investigation points clearly to one person, President Obama.  (For Israel it will merely uphold the status quo). Who knows the specifics of the deal he has struck with Zionists in Israel and the US, but whether the blank cheque we can all imagine is spent on his personal campaign or on bolstering the cracked foundations of his nations economy, the result is the same.  Better chances in the polls.

It is obviously very important to Obama to get voted in for another term as President.  Personally I would have thought that someone, who initially appeared to be so morally driven, would have had enough of the games and the lies and the manipulation.  So the question I have come to ask my self now is what is the cause of this desperate desire to continue as President (I would say "in power" but I am starting to wonder if that phrase is relevant to the position of United States President)

Does Obama want to continue because he knows that with another term he can turn the country around and leave a lasting legacy that will boost the self esteem of all afroamericans, and improve living conditions for all?

Or is he so terrified of what will happen if the Tea Partyers get their person in, that he would do anything to avoid it? 

Or is it just ego?

These are interesting times, as they say when the sky is about to fall.
