Less than a week after new polling data shows that Israelis prefer Barack Obama by 37-28% (with 35% of Israelis undecided) [1], the RJC reposted an interview where one commentator said that Obama doesn’t have “what Israelis look for in a U.S. President” [2]. Sounds like that commentator is a little off on whether Obama has what Israelis want. Indeed, Obama showed during his trip that he understands “the real security threats facing Israel and the United States” [2][3]. The bigger question may be whether McCain realizes that Iran is a much bigger threat than Iraq. As we have previously mentioned, he has failed to press for serious sanctions in the past [4][5].
