Philosemite…why yes, some of his best friends are Jewish.You can pull up some on-the-other-hands, but he may not be digging slaughter pits for the Jews, he's enabling Iran to get a bomb…of course, he may also stop Iran from getting the bomb, but that will be at the cost of strong-arming Israel to give in to all the Balestinian's demands. No, genius, he doesn't have a secret clost of Nazi memorabilia, but a Friend of the Jews, he's not (on, my, Maury, he had us at the white house forpesach Seder!" Next Year in Jeerusalem, Barry! High five!!

This blog really scrapes the bottom of the barrel. How low can you go Mr. Lumisch in ridiculous one-dimensional, superficial analyses.
By the same token Obama is a philosemite. There ar many Jews in his administration and the list of his Jewish friends is much longer than this blog. He even celebrates Jewish festivals. Some even maintain that he is America's first Jewish president (just google that to see how many).
You are in good company Mr. Lumisch. The Stormont site uses the same kind of analysis to maintain that Obama is a Jewish pawn.
BTW, not everybody to the left of Genghis Khan or National Messianism is a fellow traveller of communism either.

The definition of antisemitism is a simple one: viewing or treating Jews differently from any other ethnic/national group. This includes repeating the tropes you mentioned, and holding Jews up to a higher moral standard. By that metric, many in the West are indeed antisemitic.

We all got lucky with Mr.Obama. Never forget that the other choice was Mitch Romney.

The answer is quite simple, Mike: Obama was raised on 1970s hatred of Western 'colonialism' and 'imperialism' and he strongly believes that the oppressed peoples of the world, thanks to him, are about to be avenged. He actually likes Jews, as long as they share the same radical 70s world-view (which a lot of them, unfortunately, do). Once you use this as the key to reading the man, everything makes sense: he hates Israel not because it's Jewish, but because to him it is a last-minute colonial effort that started after the bell had rung and the West was already busy giving back their colonies to the indigenous peoples. He supports the Muslim Brothers not because they are anti-Semitic, but because they are a pure, indigenous power fighting the West. He supports Hagel not because Hagel dislikes Jews, but because he will acquiesce in the dismantling of US military power, which will enable their exploited victims to get their own back. And so on and so forth…

"And the fact of the matter is that many Jewish people do believe that Obama is anti-Semitic. That is a simple fact."

Typical: I'm not saying he is Anti-Semietic….but….

69% of Jewish voters in the U.S. cast their ballots for Barack Obama in 2012. So do Jewish Americans support Anti-Semitic bending candidates or are you playing the fear mongering card?
