“If during this political season you hear some questions regarding my administration’s support for Israel, remember that it’s not backed up by the facts,” Obama told the AIPAC crowd. “And remember that the US-Israel relationship is simply too important to be distorted by partisan politics.”
The president evoked dozens of instances where his administration has worked to bolster Israel’s interests, diplomatically and in other ways. He also discussed the “crippling sanctions” he’s pushed to help prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon. “As you examine my commitment, you don’t just have to count on my words. You can look at my deeds,” he said. “So there should not be a shred of doubt by now — when the chips are down, I have Israel’s back.”"
