The Obama administration is condemning the Wednesday terrorist attack on a bus in Tel Aviv that wounded at least ten people, and stressing its support for Israel.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of those injured, and with the people of Israel,” said a statement from White House press secretary Jay Carney. “These attacks against innocent Israeli civilians are outrageous.”
Carney added: “The United States will stand with our Israeli allies, and provide whatever assistance is necessary to identify and bring to justice the perpetrators of this attack. The United States reaffirms our unshakeable commitment to Israel’s security and our deep friendship and solidarity with the Israeli people.”

To their credit, the Obama administration has been unbelievably supportive of Israel during this present crises! Kudos to the White House. Obama has been much more supportive than the Bush admin. We all remember Condi Rice, last time around, spewing that, “both sides” comparison garbage! Let’s hope the Israely “leadership” realize this & “chop areyn” and finish off those filthy dogs once & for all!
If Obama wants to be true to his words, he should allow Israel to do what they have to with these perah adom. To say “rah rah” in public but privately tell Natanyahu the opposite is manure.
