Obama Denies Agreements Between US and Israel

Hussein obama is dishonorable, a liar and a scoundrel. He seeks to renege on agreements between the US and Israel made during the Bush administration regarding settlements, by flatly denying any such agreements were ever made. Eliot Abrams and Dov Weisglass contradict the obama administration and there is documented evidence proving there were agreements.

Agreements must be honored
