If she was in third grade, this would be cute:
During a tour of the Western Wall Palin expressed support for Jews praying openly at the Temple Mount asking her Israeli tour guides, “why are you apologizing all the time?” The Jerusalem Post reported.
The Temple Mount, a holy site to both Jews and Muslims, is one of the world’s most contested religious sites.
One of Palin’s tour guides World Likud Chairman Danny Danon said Palin “really connected to the story of the Jewish nation.”
According to The Jerusalem Post, Danon said “I can clearly say from the questions she asked in relation to our conflict here with the Muslims in these holy sites that she knows that we are right and that the Muslims are just claiming things for provocation and they’re not right.”
The former Alaska governor prayed at the Wall and left a note with a personal prayer in it.
“It’s overwhelming to be able to see and touch the cornerstone of our faith,” Palin reportedly said. “I’m so thankful to be able to be here, and I’m thankful to know the Israel-American connection will grow and strengthen as the peace negotiations continue.”
I don’t really know what to say. I hope Netanyahu has a very rewarding and intellectually stimulating dinner with Sarah and Todd. I hope he learns all about elk meat and moose dressing. And I expect he’ll pat her on the head and tell she’s very discerning for realizing that he’s right, nearly everyone else is wrong, and there are a lot of cry babies in the world who are just trying to be provocative.
Some days I just want to bang my head against a wall. Recently, the feeling can go on for a whole week.
nothing that can’t be ameliorated by a fifth of whisky in the form of the largest Old-fashioned you’ll ever see…

Does Danny Danon realize that he sounds as dumb as his guest? Does Danon, Netanyahu or anyone else realize why Palin really butters up Israel?
“It’s overwhelming to be able to see and touch the cornerstone of our faith,” Palin reportedly said.
Palin is Jewish?
No, just putting on full frontal display how antisemitic Christian Zionism is. Greater Israel = the End Times = 2nd coming of Jesus = Jews repent for their sins or go to hell with the rest of the heathens.
Oh, and of course people like me who want a peaceful solution but will be unrelenting in calling out Israel’s war crimes will get called an antisemite while people like Palin are put on a pedestal.
End result = the “final solution to the Jewish problem” = all Jews either convert or are sucked down into the endless fiery pit of hell = the end of the Jewish people.
Yeah, those Christian Zionists just LOVE them some Jews!

And Max seems like the only person here in America who seems interested in exposing these disgusting antisemitic people.
Just being snarky, seabe. Palin’s comment seems to indicate that either the Wall is the cornerstone of Christianity or she is Jewish. In all probability, she didn’t really have any idea of where she was or the historical significance. I would expect her to say something similar at the Kaaba.
Of course, I caught it. No worries.
Somebody pilfered the prayer that Obama left at the wall. Where are all the good prayer thieves when you need them, that baby would be worth a bundle.
I can only imagine who Sarah kindly asked God to smite for her.
if she weren’t a wanker, it wouldn’t be Sarah Palin.
