Barack Obama And His Support For Israel

JAKARTA - There is no two United States (US) support for Israel. That narrative is seen in historical records. Instead of support only expressed directly by the President of the United States, those preparing to become US Presidential Candidates (Capres) alone expressed their pro-Israel. Barack Obama, for example.

The live act was shown when Obama was a senator and the 2008 presidential election campaign. He called Israel the strongest US alliance in the Middle East. Obama also said Jerusalem's status was that the capital of Israel could not be contested.

The option of supporting Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is considered a good political path for the US. The narrative has been shown by the US from Israel to proclaim independence on May 14, 1948. The US then fully supports Israel as a country.

This attitude is followed by other political support measures. The government of Uncle Sam's country often gives support to Israel during war. The good relationship between the US and Israel continues. In fact, there is an assumption that whoever the US President is, support for Israel becomes a package in it.

Instead of only the President of the US providing support, those preparing to become US Presidential Candidates also expressed support. Barack Obama, for example. Every day the US Senator often expressed his support for Israel at every opportunity.

Sometimes he appears diplomatic. Sometimes his statement also implies direct support. Obama firmly stated that Israel is the strongest US alliance in the Middle East. Obama's attitude also invites pros and cons.

Some call it reasonable. There are also those who call Obama part of Jewish lobbying to support the Israeli state in the US parliament. That reason makes Obama widely known as the pro-Israel leader.

If we look at historical records, the US government's policies have been very consistent for decades. War is the policy of every president. Supporting Israel and its suppression of Palestinians is the policy of every president of the United States. Obama even said this during the campaign: Israel's security cannot be contested. Non-negotiable."

All agreements with the Palestinian people must continue to defend Israel's identity as a Jewish state, with a safe, clear, and sustainable border. Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and should not be shared forever, no one doubts this: I will always open up the possibility of military action to maintain the security of us and our ally, Israel," said Malalai Joya in the book A Woman Among Warlords (2011).

Obama's political path as a US Senator went smoothly. He was able to convince many that he was a strong candidate for US leader in the future. The narrative can be seen from the attitude of the Democratic Party which made men of African-American descent one of the candidates for US Presidential Candidates.

Obama is considered capable of competing with Hillary Clinton as a US Presidential Candidate from the Democratic Party. However, that power did not make obama's attitude towards Israel change. Obama still supports Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The narrative came to light when Obama made history as the first black presidential candidate from the Democratic Party on June 3, 2008. The day after, or on June 4, 2008 Obama was involved in the American Israel Public Affairs Committee forum in Washington.

Obama said clearly that he did not tolerate a country that threatens the security of Israel. Whoever interferes with Israel's security then he will face the US. That attitude is inevitable to get criticism here and there. Even though later during his time as president, Obama often offered a peaceful solution between the two countries.

On June 4, the day after confirming itself as a candidate for president of the Democratic Party, Barack Obama spoke at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee forum in Washington. Obama said: I will not tolerate if anyone threatens Israel's security, Jerusalem must remain the capital of Israel and should not be divided. "

Obama also emphasized that as president he would not hesitate to use weapons if necessary to defend Israel. The last statement was quite surprising. You see, in many other places Obama has always tried to convince the public that foreign conflicts can be resolved with political dialogue that has made him cursed at 'lunak' by Republican candidate John McCain,' wrote the book Obama and the Israeli-Palestinian Problem (2008).
