“Obama’s hostility to American exceptionalism also seemed linked to his hostility to Israel, or more specifically to America’s identification with Israel, which finally resulted in his determination during his second term to reach his agreement with Iran—an agreement with the main objective of integrating that country into America’s security architecture in the Middle East, while limiting Israel’s power in the region. Again, why? The sheer amount of political capital and focus Obama put into achieving the JCPOA during his second term, to the near-exclusion of other goals, suggests that the deal was central to his politics. It also carries more than a whiff of the kind of politics in which the American Empire is seen not just as unexceptional, but also, in some ways, as actively evil.”
That was Tablet editor David Samuels, in “The Obama Factor,” a landmark August 2, 2023 interview with David Garrow, author of Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama. On October 7, 2023, Hamas committed the worse massacre of Jews since the Holocaust. In light of those events, and Iran’s recent attack on Israel, consider some of Samuels own statements from the interview.
“The election of Joe Biden in 2020 gave the Obamas even more reasons to stay in town,” contended Samuels. “When Obama turned up at the White House, staffers and the press crowded around him, leaving President Biden talking to the drapes—which is not a metaphor but a real thing that happened.” These appearances were not mere social calls.
“I have heard from more than one source that there are regular meetings at Obama’s house in Kalorama involving top figures in the current White House,” Samuels explained. “There are over a thousand reporters in Washington, and yet there are zero stakeouts of Obama’s mansion, if only to tell us who is coming and going. But he clearly has his oar in,” particularly on Iran.
“Joe Biden is not running that part of his administration. Obama is,” Samuels told Garrow. “He doesn’t even have to pick up the phone because all of his people are already inside the White House. They hold the Iran file. Tony Blinken doesn’t.” Garrow recalled Rob Malley prompting Samuels to add “Brett McGurk. Dan Shapiro in Israel. Lisa Monaco in Justice. Susan Rice running domestic policy. It’s turtles all the way down. There are obviously large parts of White House policymaking that belong to Barack Obama because they’re staffed by his people, who worked for him and no doubt report back to him.” For Samuels, it was a scary situation.
“A new milieu had been created consisting of party operatives, the people in the FBI and the CIA who are carrying out White House policy, and the press. It is all one world now. And that’s something people still seem loathe to admit, even to themselves, in part because it puts them in a state of dissonance with this new kind of controlled consensus that the press maintains, which is obviously garbage. But if you question it, you’re some kind of nut.” For Jews, this had major consequences.
“Historically speaking, Jews are not, or were not, a particularly American obsession, except among some morons and leather fetishists on the right. But they are a major obsession on the periphery of the American empire, where envy and fear of the mythic role that Jews supposedly play in Washington, because of Israel, are defining emotions, regardless of the facts.” With Obama running the show, all Americans were involved.
“In the absence of what was once American journalism, it is hard to know which portrait of Obama’s post-presidency is truer to life,” Samuels noted. “Obama as a celebrity-obsessed would-be billionaire, or as a would-be American Castro, reshaping American society from his basement, in his sweats.” Samuels also asked David Garrow about his revelation that Dreams from My Father was a novel and the author a composite character.
“He wants people to believe his story,” Garrow told Samuels. “For me to conclude that Dreams from My Father was historical fiction – oh God, did that infuriate him.” All told, Garrow regards Obama as “not normal, as in not a normal politician or a normal human being.”
Samuels still found Obama, “deeply sympathetic as a person” and identifies with him emotionally. On the other hand, “there was something about this fictional character that he created actually becoming president that helped precipitate the disaster that we are living through now.” That applies to Americans and Israelis alike.
Obama sent a planeload of cash to the Iranian regime, the chief funder of terrorism in general and Hamas in particular. After 10/7, Obama decried the “occupation,” and said “what is happening to the Palestinians is unbearable,” striking moral equivalence between Hamas terrorists and their Jewish victims. As Garrow said, he’s not a normal person, but there’s more to it.
“Well, for Barack, everything has to be a success,” Garrow explained. “Everything has to be a victory. ” When Joe Biden tells Israel not to retaliate after Iran’s recent massive attack, that’s Obama telling Iran to “take the win.”

But his pants had such sharp creases. The fact that he’s evil shouldn’t matter at all.
John Anderson says
Hussein Obama represents a toxic combination of Islamic fundamentalism and totalitarianism. Historically, evil tyrants demand total submission of the people to the state. Judaism teaches to worship one G-d, not to worship the state or the dictator. Needless to say, evil always wants to destroy the Jews.
Without going into the 4,000 years of Jewish history and the miraculous survival of the Jewish people despite the slim odds, suffice it to say: Am Yisrael Chai (the Jewish people live). The same cannot be said of the evil empires of the past that made every effort to eradicate the Jewish people: ancient Greece, Rome, the Spanish Inquisition, the Soviet Union, and the Third Reich.
The US continues its “fundamental transformation” from a free society to a dictatorship during this third term of Hussein Obama. And following the historical script of past evil despots, Hussein Obamas number one policy goal has always been to harm the Jews by trying to destroy Israel. Will the US and the rest of the world continue to suffer Hussein Obama’s scorched-earth policies because of his hatred of Israel and tiny Israel’s stubborn desire to survive?
Intrepid says
It’s Obama. It always was Obama. It will always be Obama. Worst P.O.S. that ever happened to this country.
Everything bad that has happened to this country started in 2008 with his “fundamental transformation” that all of the white idiot libs fell for.
Fortunately for us Obama’s leftist shtick and treason comes to an end when Trump wins in November. And please, no more leftist blacks in the White House…..puhlease.
sumsrent says
So you’re Ok with Leftist Whites and Leftist Arabs in the White house… just as long as there aren’t any Blacks… aye?
Damn… you are a full blown idiot !!!
Beez says
It’s Obama. It always was Obama. It will always be Obama. True.
sumsrent says
You ask “Why?”
Because the satanic Sunni world wants Israel and Shiite Iran pinned against each other… in war…
That way… the satanic Sunni world won’t ever have to lift a finger against either of them…
The satanic Sunni world hates both Shiite Iran and Israel… so… by keeping them fighting each other… the satanic Sunni world comes out on top unscathed…
The satanic Sunni world has their enemy #1 fighting their enemy #2…
Hamas is a Sunni terrorist organization… unlikely, Shiite Iran will be funding it at all…
America is playing with Iran against Israel… all to fulfill Biblical Prophecy…
America loves the satanic Sunni world…
sumsrent says
Barrack Hussein Obama is a satanic Sunni muslim…
Q: Now why would he help Shiite Iran?
A: To keep Iran pinned against Israel… so the satanic Sunni world doesn’t have to lift a finger against either of them…
It doesn’t take a Rocket Scientist to figure it all out… and in the mean time the Media feeds the masses to keep them duped…
If y’all understood Biblical Prophecy and satanic islamic Prophecy… and why the nations of this world gather in the Valley of Jehoshaphat… it would all become clear…
Angel Jacob says
The easiest way to describe Obama’s personality is stating a simple fact:
He is a full blown Psychopath.
Just like any other psychopath he is master manipulator and liar. He knows how to mimic emotions while not having any.
He is a control freak. All psychopaths are.
Nothing angers a psychopaths more than losing control over his victims. Because his true nature was revealed, so his lies and manipulations don’t work anymore.
Just like any other psychopath he is extremely selfish and has a need to be praised. He puts on a fake mask of charming character. Whatever role he needs to play to attract followers.
He has been in the making for a long time, he came out of nowhere. He was just another loser before he was chosen by the islamists for their evil purpose. An Arab Muslim and black. All was needed is to guilt trip gullible, ignorant folks into voting for him.
Who he really works for and serves is obvious by now, at least for half the nation. But who he really is is not yet commonly known.
As dangerous and evil he is, his true nature must be revealed. That’s how he can be destroyed.
A Psychopath Revealed is the title of the final chapter to end this vile creature’s era.
Beez says
BO must be confronted publicly.
Beez says
I’ve said this since 2008. BO is behind all the madness.
Walter Sieruk says
That fiendish villain Joe Biden as terrible as he is still a stooge of Barack Obama . Therefore Biden has ,indeed, totally abandoned Israel , likewise he betrayed her. Biden even has the diabolical gall to attempt to impose sanctions on the Israel Defense Force all the while he’s providing that aggressive Israel and America hating hostile Islamic regime of Iran, which supports Hamas, with billions of dollars and then he wants to send Iran even more money Before this betrayal of the State of Israel and the United States ,Biden allowed that Islamic tyranny that to obtain billons of dollars . How terribly wicked of Biden .For that belligerent ”mullah regime” of Iran calls Israel “The little Satan and the US “The great Satan.”
We may be sure that either in a direct way or an indirect way will use that money to advance its nuclear weapons program and further its stooge terror/murder jihad organizations which are Hamas, Hezbollah , Islamic Jihad.
Some Westerners might find in a bit interesting that Ayatollah Khamenei as well as the other ayatollahs and mullahs who have so much terrible power in Iran , don’t ever engage in any shootings and bombings , they just have their useful idiots who are the Muslim terrorists those three horrendous jihad entities to the dirty work of murdering of people for them as their tools.
Some of that vast amount of money Biden those in power in Iran to obtain will , without doubt , also be given in support to further found Hamas and also Hezbollah and Islamic Jihad.
Truly, Joe Biden is a treacherous scoundrel who’s is a tool of another treacherous scoundrel ,Obama.
In other words Biden is a puppet “president” and Obama is the puppet master.
Walter Sieruk says
Joe Biden with his anti- Israel and pro-Iran polices is the mirror reflection of his boss. Barack Obama. Therefore. Biden favors that ant- Israel Islamic Iran which funds and supports Hamas Nevertheless ,that two –faced lying Biden is greatly the all overruled by God The reason why this is so is because according to the Bible the Jews have all the land that now makes up the State of Israel ,including all of Juda and Samaria , by Divine Right. As found in Genesis 28:13-15. 35:10-12. Deuteronomy 32:48,49. Psalm 105: 7-11. 135: 4.
Furthermore, the Jews should have all this land by historic rights. As seen in First Kings 4; 20,21,24,25. 8:55, 56.
Biden and Obama are fools for going against the Will of God.
