It's Official: Obama 'The Worst US President For Israel'
Israelis overwhelmingly view Barack Obama as the worst US president for Israel in the last 30 years, a poll has shown. And while that result may come as no surprise, the degree to which respondents viewed Obama negatively is certainly remarkable.
The survey was conducted by veteran pollster Menacham Lazar of Panels Politics, and the results revealed by The Jewish Journal's Shmuel Rosner, who helped draft the survey.
The poll asked Israelis who they thought were the best and worst presidents for the State of Israel in the past 30 years.
A full 63% of Israelis voted for Barack Obama as the worst-ever president. Trailing at a distant second was former president and current outspoken anti-Israel activist Jimmy Carter, with 16%.
Carter's repeated attacks against Israel earned him the cold shoulder from senior Israeli officials, with both Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and President Reuven Rivlin refusing to meet with him during a planned visit to Israel. But Israelis apparently agreed with the assessment recently offered by one New York Assemblyman that Obama is far worse than Carter.
12% of respondents said they didn't know, while George Bush Senior came in at third place, with 4% of the votes.
But despite Democratic presidents taking the top two spots in that list, Israelis are clearly not partisan.
