Obama’s statement is a vicious inflammatory lie, which will inevitably stir antisemitism.
Netanyahu responded in a counter-statement to educate the uneducated who will be inclined to accept Obama’s propaganda:
The Jewish people’s right to their own state in their ancestral homeland is non-negotiable.

Obama fulfilled a devious mission as he ungraciously accepted his honorary doctorate. His lies tacitly defend the Palestinian “resistance,” which is really a disguise for a long-term jihad against Jews and the state of Israel. Campuses are already saturated with dangerous indoctrination. The last thing Queen’s University in Belfast needed was more Middle East propaganda.
Obama went to Belfast and gave an insanely ahistorical and petty demonstration of his indestructible grudge against the Jewish state, which appears to have consumed him a la Jimmy Carter https://t.co/sKePwqqhn4

“Israel ‘took the land’ from Palestinians, has ‘ceded moral ground,’ Obama tells Belfast crowd,” Jerusalem Post, August 15, 2026:
Former US president Barack Obama said on Tuesday that Israel “took land off people and they were excessive,” in reference to Israel’s treatment of the Palestinian people throughout the history of the nation.
Obama made his comments while visiting Belfast, Northern Ireland, to receive an honorary doctorate from Queen’s University Belfast.
In a conversation with journalist Susan McKay, the former president referred to the Palestinians’ reaction to the Jewish people’s exerting cultural and military control over the State of Israel by explaining that “those people understandably said, ‘This is injustice, and I want my land back.'”
McKay asked Obama about the current state of the conflict in the Middle East surrounding the State of Israel. The hostility toward Israel after the October 7 massacre was an indication that a “genuine cessation” was needed in order for long-term solutions to be implemented, the former president responded.
‘You have ceded moral ground if that is the position you take’
“The fact is,” Obama explained, “that the Jewish people, for millennia, were oppressed, discriminated against, killed. Europe was responsible for much of it. They understandably sought a refuge.”…

This is not news. Obama and his administration were anti Israel and anti Jewish.
Yes, his claim is false!!

If your Daddy was a Muslim, and your Step-Daddy was a Muslim. Under Islamic Law, you might just be a Muslim under penalty of death. Obama is against America and Israel and no friend to American citizens.
Public Funding is a privilege that should not be granted to organizations that are against the US Constitution. Islam, a Criminal-Terrorist-Gang Enterprise, is against the US Constitution for Muslim funding, teaching, and promoting discrimination, hatred, rape, segregation, violence, totalitarianism, and terrorism WITH NO EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW(Qur’an 2:191, 216; 4:89, 91, 95; 9:5, 29, 41, 111; 48:29; 49:15, etc.).

When a country goes to war to conquer territory, and loses the war, that country loses territory. Ask Germany.
