There is exactly zero nuance in this comment. Obama hadn't been throwing around near the rhetoric that Trump and his cronies have.

Israel has always (afaik) been an ally. The difference is the fanaticism and devotion our leaders demand we give to another country.

True, Obama did way better PR for Apartheid. Trump is letting the mask slip.
