Joining the critics against US President Barak Obama, who decided not to use America’s veto power, permitting Resolution 2334 to pass in the Security Council, is Housing Minister (Kulanu) Yoav Galant.
Galant spoke with Ynet on Sunday morning 25 Kislev, explaining “during his (President Obama) eight years in office, he did not manage to realize who are his allies and enemies in the Middle East. I do not rule out all the good things, the important things from the outgoing administration, but there is no doubt we are looking towards the incoming president”.
Galant feels the latest Security Council resolution against Israel is a “back door effort” to renew that black era of equating “Zionism with racism”, adding “the one ally we have abandoned us in the battle field”.
Galant, a retired IDF major-general, calls on Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to hold a special cabinet meeting in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City opposite the Kosel to send a clear message in response to UN efforts to try to create new facts on the ground.

Minister Galant, don’t be naive. Obama knows perfectly well who his enemies are in the “region”. His enemies are Eretz Ysroel and Jewish People. He said it himself in many occasions.
Of course he knows,
He’s just a plain
BOLD ANTI-SEMITE.
He’s true colors are coming out.
President Obama and the left-wing Democrats know who their enemy is in the Middle East. It’s Israel. As they are leaving office, they are free to speak and act openly.
The question is to what extent Jewish Democrats will realize their party is now the party of anti-semitism. Will, for example, Dov Hikin change registration and run as a Republican? Will the secular Jews, most of whom are more likely to be economically more comfortable with the Republican/s, continue to vote Democratic?
The way Israel behaves towards religious Jews, that’s how Obama behaves towards Israel, mida keneged mida. Only Jews are always thrown out of their homes – never Arabs.
