Will the recent betrayal of Israel by the Obama administration solidify his legacy as less than appealing?

Israel claims to have proof that the recent resolution voted upon in the UN was orchestrated and pushed by the current administration. If this is true, will our reputation be tainted in the eyes of our Jewish allies?

I haven't a clue. I can't imagine the American Jewish community continuing to support him but they've had plenty of evidence in the past that you might think would sour their opinion of him. I can't imagine the black community continuing to support him inasmuch as he set race relations back to the levels pre-1960, but they still seem to adore him. I can't imagine any identity group as the Democrats love to categorize voters continuing to support him, but they all do. So, if I were a betting man, I wouldn't wager on any change.

Had the president cut off 5 billion in aid each year (roughly 40 billion during his administration) and had our ambassador vote to condemn the illegal settlements, I could at least understand why you would call this a betrayal. Even if he had done all those things, he is only required to be loyal to this country... not Israel. If you are more loyal to Israel than you are to your Commander in Chief... you are the one who is committing a betrayal.

He did that all By Himself... he and his Self centered Pompous Arrogant Holier than thou attitude…
His treasonous actions and methodical sell out of the Allies of the US and surrender antics and actions to The Enemies and the Radical Islamic terrorists...

I also tagged honesty but the admins deleted it. Is honesty and integrity a part of foreign policy or am I just crazy? Here we go with safe spaces again!

Yes, but what legacy are we talking about? Middle East discord? 94 million unemployed/underemployed? 2% GDP Growth for eight years? $860B distributed to his cronies? Obamacare?

no, everyone knows that obama is gone, his policies rejected, and there is a new sheriff in town. We will be back to supporting our friends and crushing our enemies very soon.
