Why is Obama meeting with a man who called him ‘Neville Chamberlain’?

The fascinating Alan Dershowitz

Let’s see: Alan Dershowitz called Obama Neville Chamberlain just a couple months back. Last year he said Obama was torpedoing the peace process by talking about the 1967 lines. Oh and here he launches an all-out assault on J Street as anti-Israel.

That piece begins:

Alan M. Dershowitz’s Perspective: President Obama recently invited me to the Oval Office for a discussion about Iran.

Some folks get access.

Dersh is precisely the kind of chap who annihilated any trust in the two-state solution.

How degrading. That man [Obama] has no dignity.

The phrase that comes to mind is “house negro”, except I would extend Malcolm X’s concept into “house American” since Obama’s skin colour is irrelevant:

He characterizes the house Negro American as having a better life than the field Negro average American, and thus unwilling to leave the plantation say to no Israel, and potentially more likely to support existing power structures that favour whites zionists over blacks Americans.

This is the same if President Roosevelt invited Göbbels to discuss the situation in Germany and ask for advice!
How low can you sink for that second term?

I’ve followed the Dersh a little, in no small because of his influence, and from what I’ve gathered Obama has been consulting with him on a regular basis via phone and in person. And Dershowitz understands because of the power and the weight of the lobby behind him, he can spit the president in the face any time of the day without any consequences.

When he was crusading against MJ Rosenberg, he even said outloud that if the White House doesn’t distance itself from Media Matters he will ‘personally make sure that the entire Jewish community does not vote for Obama’. But of course we all know the real threat is the donor base.

His quote was probably more bravado than anything credible but it still speaks volumes to how utterly comfortable he is abusing the president mentally and politically time and time again and yet keeps getting invited back.

As easy it is to depict Dershowitz as a loathsome figure, in no small part because the canvas paints itself so to speak, what does this say about the US president?
Obama is truly making himself look like a pathetic tool here with no willpower whatsoever.

Obama showed the Dersh the line on the doorway for how high he goes when israel says “jump!” and the timer for how fast he jumps when the zionists bark … Dersh was not impressed – seems O is a millimeter too low and a millisecond too late to please his masters
