Conservative radio host Mark Levin on Thursday said that President Obama is the “greatest threat” to Jews in Israel “since the 1930s.”

“Barack Obama, as a result of this and the other things he’s doing, including arming up the Islamonazis in Tehran, is the greatest threat the Jews face — not in this country but in Israel — since the 1930s,” he said on “The Mark Levin Show.”

Levin said that Obama’s relationship with Israel and his decision to negotiate a nuclear deal with Iran threaten Israeli Jews.

“He’s the greatest threat they face since the 1930s. And I say that because he is doing more now to degrade Israel’s military and defense posture, its intelligence information. He’s doing more now to arm Israel’s enemy than anybody,” he said. “He is the greatest threat that that nation faces. And by the way, he’s a great threat to our nation too, as far as I’m concerned.”

  1. I’m getting sick and tired of people saying crap like this. No…Obama is not the “Greatest Threat” to Israeli Jews since the 1930’s…first of all, there were no Israeli Jews in the 1930’s as Israel did not exist until 1948, but let us just go with the fact that Obama is not a threat to Ashkenazi Jews. ISIL is, but Obama isn’t unless you’re one of those people who wants to see an Israel that runs has taken over half of the Arab Peninsula.

  2. Idiot fascist asshole. Conservatives keep pushing that supporting Israel means supporting everything thier government does, and if you don’t you are anti-semetic. Fuck that, Bibi is a bigot towards the Arab population and runs an apartheid state.

  3. Indeed, they were Palestinian Jews, many of whom immigrated there between the world wars and subsequent to the “Balfour Declaration”. In 1931, there was a census estimate of 3/4 of a million Muslim Palestinians, about 175 thousand Palestinian Jews and 85 thousand Palestinian Christians.
