Obama Isn't Anti-Israel Because... Umm... Err... Because He Just Isn't OK?

Here's a neat little challenge for the supple minds who are insisting that an Obama White House would be anything but a disaster for Israel: name a single pro-Israel policy that the Senator supports. Because, as Giuliana pointed out last night, "maybe he's not totally anti-Israel" is pretty much the best that anybody's managed to come up with:
"There's no question he's ambiguous about" his stand on Israel, Giuliani said, citing specifically that Obama said months ago before a Jewish political group that he supported an undivided Jerusalem, and later aides clarified it. "I think that his position in dealing with the issues that are important to Israel, like they are important to me in America, is -- (the) best and kindest thing you can say is, ambiguity... he's too close to the presidency not to have formed views about this that don't require having to explain it two or three different times."
And isn't it really weird how the most strident anti-Israel activists are so convinced that Obama's their guy that they're switching parties just to him. Americans switch religions more often then they switch political parties - a neat little convergence with the rest of The One's campaign themes:
The Obama campaign's conference call yesterday on Republicans who back the presidential bid of the Democrat from Illinois showcased quite a crew. There was Rita Hauser, the PLO apologist whose law firm... racked up millions of dollars in legal fees over the years as a registered foreign agent of Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority... Mr. Obama also is boasting of Lincoln Chafee, who... was responsible for blocking Secretary Bolton from being confirmed as the American ambassador at the United Nations on the grounds that the Bush administration had been too pro-Israel.... The third "Republican for Obama... was a former congressman from Iowa, James Leach [who] took to the House floor in 2004 to deliver a speech titled "The Case for Restraint in Iran," warning against American or Israeli attacks on the mullahs's nuclear facilities.
They must just be really confused about Obama's pro-Israel bona fides. Maybe the NJDC can enlighten them with all of the really compelling reasons that they've come up with for supporting Obama-Biden.
