#1- It's the height of hypocrisy for leaders or citizens of one country to criticize the election results and legally voted laws of another country. Democracy, or democracy with a small "d" means the decision of the majority. No foreign country, official, academic or whatever has a moral right to say the results of elections and legal process of another country isn't democratic, and that includes Mrs. Bill aka Hillary Clinton the Secretary of State of the United States of America when she's talking about Israel.
Clinton is against religious and civil rights in that she believes that religious IDF soldiers should be forced to go against their religious belief. It's not her religion and none of her business. She has her anti-religious agenda and has absolutely no right to impose her opinions on Torah-observant Jews, whether in Israel or any other place in the world.
#2- The United States has a president who won the election because he's (half-) black. Many people voted for him for that reason only. They felt it time to have a non-Caucasian President. Voting for a person because of his/her color is no different from voting against someone just because of color. They are both decisions based on race, not on objective qualifications. In both cases people are judged by how they superficially look and not their experience.
Yes, many of those who voted for Barack Hussein Obama were blinded by his color and looked at nothing else. That is just as dangerous as refusing to vote for someone because of his/her color or sex. Obama's election didn't prove that the United States is conquering racism, it just means that the Liberal, with a capital "L," are successful in pushing their agenda and voted in an affirmative action president.

The sad truth about "The Downfall of Democracies"

Do you have a link to go with the quote by Hillary?
Batya, have you seen those bumper-stickers that say something to the effect of: "If you voted for Obama in 2008 to prove you're not a racist, vote for ANYONE ELSE in 2012 to prove you're not an idiot" ?
If you see obozo standind close to a caucasian you will see how lightskinned he is ( about a shade lighter than typical olive skin.).he wears white shirts to give contrast and mike himself look like his self proclaimed background.
a, yes, she actually spoke about IDF policy.
Mark, Dershowitz mentioned something like last night at the Begin Center.
a, I did link it in the article. It's all over the Israeli press.
maoz, no, I'm in Israel, not the states
(Psst - Batya, I'm in Israel too [Baruch HaShem yom-yom!], but there's this thingy called "internet"....)
maoz, I'm not on the computer all that much
I wish to comment on why I voted for President Obama and I must tell you, in all sincerity, it was not because of the color of his skin.
I voted for President for the same reasons that a lot of my countrymen and ladies did-- we were sick to death of the tragic governmental mess left to us by the outgoing Conservative Administration.
Thank you for this opportunity to express my feelings on this matter.
