Israeli Born Kiss Star Gene Simmons on '67 Borders: 'Obama Has No F--king Idea What World is Like'
By Noel Sheppard | May 21, 2011 | 13:57
Most Americans are probably familiar with outspoken Kiss star Gene Simmons, but likely didn't know that he was born and partially raised in Israel.
With this in mind, when he was asked by CNBC's Jane Wells what he thought about President Obama's suggestion that Israel's borders be redrawn to pre-1967 levels, Simmons replied, "He has no f--king idea what the world is like because he doesn’t have to live there" (video follows with transcript and commentary):
JANE WELLS, CNBC: What do you think of President Obama’s suggestion that the borders be redrawn pre-67?
GENE SIMMONS, KISS: President Obama, I voted for an idea. What I didn’t realize what I was getting was an idealist. If you’ve never been to the moon, you can’t issue policy about the moon. You have no f—king idea what it’s like on the moon. For a president to be sitting in Washington, D.C., and saying, “Go back to your 67 borders in Israel,” how about you live there and try to defend an indefensible border nine miles wide? On one side you’ve got hundreds of millions of people who hate your guts, on the other side you’ve got the Mediterranean. Unless you control, in Israel, unless you control those Golan Heights, it’s an indefensible position.
It’s a nice idea, when you grow up you find out that life isn’t the way you imagined it, and President Obama means well. I think he’s actually a good guy. He has no f—king idea what the world is like because he doesn’t have to live there.
As someone that has stood on top of the Golan Heights, I can attest to what Simmons said, as they overlook Israel and giving them back would mean Syria could lob munitions into a completely indefensible Jewish state.
Anyone who's been there knows this is something Israel will never agree to, and if Obama would visit there and see it for himself, he would immediately realize how absurd his speech was Thursday.
Obviously, Simmons - who Hot Air Pundit accurately noted was born in Haifa with the name Chaim Witz - understands this far better than the man currently in the White House as well as all his sycophants in the media that praised him since he threw Israel under the bus.
Although the vulgarity was unnecessary, Witz was spot on.

"...and President Obama means well. I think he’s actually a good guy."
And that, friends and neighbors, is the only point of contention I have with Gene Simmons here, as he pretty much nails it everwhere else.

I have one other point of contention...

Like far too many other gullible and blind Americans, Simmons voted for Obama, and is therefore partly responsible for the mess that we have in the WH today...It annoys me to hear him gripe about Obama now...You reap what you sow, and because of his (and others) ignorance and shortsightedness, we all have to suffer.
And the fact that Simmons still thinks that Obama is a "good guy" tells me that he's willing to keep drinking the Kool-Aid....This "but he's a good guy" and "but he has good intentions" garbage is pure bs...I remember hearing the same drivel during Carter's presidency, and we all know how well that turned out. I bet 10 bucks that Simmons will still vote for Obama in '12.

Gene got EXACTLY what he voted for, so now he can live with it.
Hey Gene, here's a flash for you and the rest of your idealists: Obama wants you Jews out of the Middle East and out of the world, so get used to it.
I asked a friend of mine yesterday, who is Jewish, what he thought of Bambi's speech on Israel. I was speechless when he said that he thought Obama was acting in the best interests of Israel! At that point I decided that American Jews WANT to be ground into powder by Obama. They are NOT stupid people, so they have to be the most incredibly naive people on the planet or on drugs to believe the way they do.
Bambi is a rat bastard Fascist SOB. Learn it. Live it. Love it, because you are stuck with the bastard.

And as far as most American Jews are concerned, I can only come to the conclusion that their liberal ideology must be more important to them than their faith and their ethnic heritage...Why this appears to be true, I'll never understand. American Jews have traditionally voted Dem, and even despite Obama's obvious disdain and disregard for Israel and the Jewish people, I'm certain that they will still vote for him in '12.

Simmons and his mom
Submitted by jon_torlin on Sat, 05/21/2011 - 4:57pm.
There was a recent "Family Jewels" episode that touched on Gene's past, or more accurately his mother's past and how she was a holocaust survivor. In one of his jaunts, a kid had written a note to him asking him to visit and it ended up being the location of Anne Frank's house. This was a subject he never really talked about and when he got to the house which was made into a museum, and saw the last pictures ever made of her, he just broke down. Once you watch the episode, you learn how his mother was close to Anne Frank's age before being taken by the Nazis to a death camp but survived the ordeal. It was a pretty emotional episode for me to watch because I knew a couple of survivors(since passed on, God bless them). He later met another survivor, the kid's grandfather towards the end of that episode and relayed how his mother came to Israel.
These survivors had the most horrific stories to tell and most people just don't realize that like the Nazis, the Muslims were in league with Hitler in their quest for exterminating the Jews. If it wasn't the Nazis, it would have been the Muslim Brotherhood killing them. And this is who the Chairman is in league with today who is trying to take over the Middle East which is the threat against Israel today.
Simmons can't possibly NOT know this. Can he?

I don't either. The first time I saw Maher with Simmons was where they were having coffee somewhere and for some reason, Maher talked about his daughter growing up, and like any good daddy, Gene didn't want his daughter growing up. The subject started getting uncomfortable with him when Maher started pressing the issue. Kinda stopped there, and given how these shows work, there might have been a whole lot more to the conversation than we see. So who knows except Maher and Simmons and the producers.
The second time, it was Gene's birthday bash(turned 60 if I remember) and Maher was one of the recorded well-wishers. It was also Paul Stanley's first REAL appearance on the show after 5 seasons, which was an interesting piece of trivia. I hadn't started watching it until its 3rd season and wasn't really faithful about it, just watched it in lieu of Fox when the Simpsons, American Dad, and Family Guy all went downhill at the same time on Sundays.
So you be the judge. That's one of the faults of Simmons, but one of the few that I have a lot of trouble with. I'd rather see that freak Carrot Top in an episode than Maher.

I go way back with KISS and Simmons, but music aside, I have to say I don't have much use for him. Does he seem to be an okay guy? I guess, but the fact that he has never seen fit to marry Shannon Tweed after all these years, and has apparently had many, many other, uh, shall we say, associations, with other women over the course of their relationship, doesn't thrill me, to say the least. That is, of course, their business, but that combined with his friendship with Maher, and the fact that he voted for Obama basically because his friends were and because he thought it would be "cool" to vote for the first black president, without really knowing anything about who Obama really was, all cause me to not be a fan of his.

My point, since you seem to have missed it, was that I have no patience for the feeble minded Kool-Aid drinkers who, for whatever reason, were too lazy, gullible and/or stupid to think for themselves in '08, and who gave us Obama in the first place...The fact that Simmons (maybe) has wised up, doesn't do us any good right now, does it? Obama is in office because of his (and others like him) lack of insight, knowledge, and judgement. Hopefully, he won't make the same mistake twice, but that is something that we'll likely never know, despite what he may say in the future. Got it?

Had Gene been paying attention to the last couple of days, especially when the Chairman was glaring at Bibi, he would see that DuhOne is not a good guy......AT ALL, especially siding with the Palestinians.
Simmons is one of those people I find fault with that gave the Chairman a chance. Yes, he's got good business smarts, and God bless Simmons, but when it comes to judges of character, he's got a few blind spots. Someone needs to set him straight. At least according to his show "Family Jewels," he seems somewhat reasonable, but he needs to wake up to the fact that the man-child he considers a "good guy" is in fact pure scum of the worst kind and would take Simmons for EVERY penny he's earned.
Mr. Simmons (no bloody chance he's ever going to read this), this Marxist has been taught from CHILDHOOD (not that he ever got out of it) to hate Jews, even to kill them one way or another. He's also been taught to hate Capitalism, of which you depend heavily on, which is your way of life. These are not wild speculations, they are matters of fact.
He will see this too late.

When I said I find fault with Simmons over his vote for the Chairman, that just means that's one of his many faults like anyone else has. No one is perfect obviously, no matter how he likes to portray that in his show. ;-)

Simmons assumes that Obama cares about Israel. Obama has never cared about Israel and has taken the side of the Palestinians and Muslims from his first day in office.
I think Obama's Jewish problem is going to now be a major problem for him in the next election. While the far left hate Israel, Republicans (minus Patrick Buchannan) and Independents strongly support Israel. Yesterday three Jewish New York Congressman distanced themselves from Obama's speech and policy - Stephen Israel, Anthony Weiner, and Elliot Engel. Gary Ackerman was alone in his support of Obama which is not a surprise from the capitulating moron from Queens.
Obama supporters are deperately trying to claim that it was not that bad and was the same policy of G.W. Bush and Clinton. Wrong. Neither President began any negotiations by stating that the starting point were the 1967 borders - even before recognition of Israel.
But that has been Obama's position for many years except for the brief time he needed the Jewish vote to get elected.

Obama is no F***ing Military Strategist
Submitted by bfrank on Sat, 05/21/2011 - 10:33pm.
Simmons understands the military logistics and history here more than Obama. B.O. proved he is not the 'gutsy' military strategist and commander the Administration hyped for the two weeks after Bin Laden was eliminated. The land Israel obtained after the Six-Day War, when they defeated the combined armed forces of Egypt, Syria and Jordan, eliminated their geographic advantages from the adjacent Arab nations. The military advantage of these areas was important enough that the Arab nations unsuccessfully invaded again in 1973 to regain them. In the midst of the 'Anti-Israel Spring', these buffer zones are key to Israel's defense from terrorists and military attacks. It was fun to watch Netanyahu school Obama on his 'home court' on Israel and military history. Obama revealed himself as the petulant man-child he is. A 'commander-in-chief' is he not.

Please wake up - Obama wants Israel crushed

"if Obama would visit there and see it for himself, he would immediately realize how absurd his speech was Thursday."
With all due respect you are in dreamland.
Has everyone forgotten Obama walking out on Netanyahu at a White House lunch then sending him out the back door? Obama DOESN'T CARE about Israel defending itself! Read Dinesh D'Souza's work on Obama. His ideology is all; nothing else matters to him.
People don't want to admit the truth because it's too far out of their comfort zone to believe someone can be this evil. Obama sees Israel as the ultimate symbol of the colonialism he so fervently hates. He not only doesn't want it defensible, I'm sure he would very much like to see it destroyed to "right" the "wrongs" of the past.
That's how Obama sees things. He LOATHES the West and feels it's his job to weaken America and punish her allies for being her allies. Evidence is in his "American exceptionalism" quote, in sending the Churchill bust back, in getting regular advice from the author of Post American World and so much more.
The current Middle East uprising is Carter tacitly supporting the Iranian Revolution writ large. Millions of dead Jews will be a small price to pay in Obama's eyes for the glorious "peaceful" Middle East he believes would follow.
No one ever wants to admit such a horror can exist until it's too late. I hope Americans, especially the American Jews who blindly support the Democrat Party, wake up to what is in the White House.
