Here's what Obama told CNN's Fareed Zakaria on Sunday, July 13:
OBAMA: You know, the truth is that this was an example where we had some poor phrasing in the speech. And we immediately tried to correct the interpretation that was given. The point we were simply making was, is that we don't want barbed wire running through Jerusalem, similar to the way it was prior to the '67 war, that it is possible for us to create a Jerusalem that is cohesive and coherent.
Obama's campaign issued a similar "clarification" a day after he gave a speech calling for a united Jerusalem, a speech delivered to a pro-Israel crowd at the AIPAC convention. "Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided," is what Obama called for at AIPAC.
As Senator Obama goes off to Israel next week we hope he educates himself somewhat with the history of Jerusalem and will discover that for the sake of the entire free world the city of Jerusalem must truly remain united and undivided.
Obama nin Laden is a muslim and a Marxist. He is lying about himself. What other lies does he have in store for us...HOW ABOUT HIS "love" FOR JEWS AND ISRAEL?
Any Jew who votes for Obama is a traitor to Hashem, Israel, and his faith.
Obama is death to Israel and Judaism.
Who will betray Judaism for the Uber-religion of "leftism?"

Obama will tell you anything you want to hear in order to get elected as President of the United States. WHAT PART OF THAT DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND PROFESSOR? Just watch and listen. If he has flip-flopped on one issue, and the wind grows strong against him, he will change his stance. Wake up. Obama is a liar. Even his Pastor hates Israel and God is very clear in the Bible about those WHO DO NOT LOVE AND PROTECT ISRAEL. God will be very angry. OBAMA IS A LIAR. YOU WILL SEE.

Obama is dangerous for Israel and for region and he knows that withdrawing US troops from Iraq is not less dangerous for regional and international security than withdrawing them from Afghanistan

Today I wrote Senator Obama, my senator along with Senator Durbin here in Illinois, a letter which will be hand delivered in the next couple of days before he goes to Israel. I had recently written to him actually the day after his speech to AIPAC. He very kindly responded and assured me that he would do everything in his power to keep Jerusalem and Israel safe. He said that Israel is the US's closest ally in the Middle East and he would want that status to remain strong no matter what. Today I asked him to go to the Temple Mount and see for himself how close it is to the Western Wall. I also suggested that he go to Hebrew University on Mt. Scopus and look down at the Temple Mount from the amphitheater. I wanted him to get a sense of the proximity Jewish West Jerusalem is to East Jerusalem, even though there are some enclaves or Jewish neighborhoods now in East Jerusalem. I told him that if Jerusalem is divided, Iranians and Hizbullah will have full access to East Jerusalem and will create a second Gaza Strip right in the presence of the governmental seat of Israel in West Jerusalem. I asked the senator to speak with Dr. Dore Gold in addition to all of the Israeli politicians he is already scheduled to meet with. I hope and pray that Senator Obama considers what I have advised. He has helped in several communities nearby where I have taught in the inner city of Chicago. So we share the idea of bettering society.
