Once again an Israeli journalist asked the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee how he'd help prevent a second Holocaust. "Senator can you assure Israel that there will be no second Holocaust despite Iran's threat to wipe us off the map?" he asked.Obama demurred, saying that it wasn't appropriate to answer the question there.
"This is Yad Vashem!" the journalist responded.
Obama said he would answer the question at a later press availability.
And, of course, Obama never answered the question.
Disgusting. The question is a no-brainer. If you don't have an automatic, "I will assure that there won't be a second Holocaust," response, then you don't deserve to occupy a square foot of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

Assuring that there won't be a second Holocaust is a bit like playing G-d; however, it's mind-boggling that he refused to even be committed to doing his utmost to prevent such an occurence. Obama can be such an airily inspirational speaker at times, but you always end up worrying about the Clintonesque dodge of hard questions...
