Add Palestinians to the group of people who have no confidence in Barack Obama’s ability to be a global leader. Perhaps no American President has been more sympathetic to their cause, making broad concessions for Islam and often spurning Israel, to the point where House Republicans went aroundthe President to invite Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address concerns over the Iran Deal. Obama has cast aside relationship after relationship for peace, but even doing that doesn’t make the supposed beneficiaries of his policies confident:
“How much trust do you have in U.S. President Barack Obama to help Israel and Palestine negotiate a peace treaty that is equally fair to both sides,” Gallup asked 1,000 Palestinian adults. Seventy-five percent admitted they have “no confidence at all” – a record number.
In fact, no more than 3 percent of Palestinians have ever held a positive opinion of the 44th president.
The president himself seems to have no confidence in his negotiating skills either. The White House announced last week that a peace deal is “not in the cards” before the end of his presidency.
It is remarkable how far this Nobel Prize winning President has fallen. His failures continue to endanger Americans everywhere.
