See How Obama Backed Down After Ted Cruz Destroyed Him On Israel According to reports, President Obama has started to put a major strain on the United States with Israel. The negative reaction stemmed from the president warning the Israeli military not to invade Gaza, and then criticizing them when they did. Allegedly, he decided to hold them responsible for Palestinian casualties, instead of the Hamas. Now, Obama has decided to place a ban on flights in and out of the country, effectively cutting Israel off from the outside world. According to Senator Ted Cruz, since the State Department has refused to answer his questions about the ban, he is going to hold all State Department nominees. Is the Obama administration giving 47 million dollars that will go to Hamas who is actively trying to kill civilians while simultaneously imposing millions of dollars of economic harms on our friend and ally Israel? The State Department needs to answer those questions, Cruz told TPNN. I announced today that in response to that refusal to answer from the State Department, I intend to hold all State Department nominees until they answer these questions. Congress deserves to know and the American people deserve to know, was this politics from the White House or was this an airline safety decision and I think the facts strongly suggest it was politics in an effort to strong arm the nation of Israel. Soon after the comments, the ban was suddenly lifted, and it appears that Cruzs claims that political motivations were driving the decision were not far off. What do you think? Is this latest action just another reason for Obama to be impeached?
