Early in 2013, when the U.S. was still in shock over the December 14, 2012 Newtown massacre, the newly re-elected Obama decided that one of his priorities would be to pressure Israel to release scores of convicted killers, among whose victims were children.
The Weiss brothers did not look like Obama's own imagined sons, and unfortunately, they, their mother, and the soldier who died trying to save them were citizens of the nation Obama's mentor Jeremiah Wright referred to as "that dirty word.
Using secretary of state John Kerry as his point man, Obama began pushing for the release of their killers, along with scores of other terrorists convicted of murder or attempted murder.
Fast-forward to early August of that year, and another horrific, stranger-than-fiction coincidence that, like the timing of the Boston Marathon bombing, looked a lot like instant karma for the Obama administration.
The Obama administration denounced the injustice: "We are deeply concerned by the release of Rafael Caro Quintero," said National Security Council spokesperson Caitlin Hayden.
Obama's demands on Israel contrasted dramatically with his pledge that his administration "does not meddle in Iran's internal affairs.
In 2014, Obama stopped Israel from defeating Hamas, allowing the terrorists nine years to rebuild.
