Right Wing Media Explodes at Rumor Obama Would Shoot Down Israeli Jets Attacking Iran

Right Wing Media Explodes at Rumor Obama Would Shoot Down Israeli Jets Attacking Iran
By: Hrafnkell Haraldsson

Right before Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress Tuesday, a story began to spread Sunday that President Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli jets if they attacked Iranian nuclear facilities, with predictable results.

They all ran with it: World Net Daily, Breitbart, Newsmax, Washington Times, Fox Nation, and, of course, Megyn Kelly, who – again of course – reports it as fact, not rumor.

And she thinks Jon Stewart has been unfair to her. Right.

The report comes to us from religiously conservative Israeli news source, Arutz Sheva, which in turn gleaned it from Bethlehem-based news agency, Ma’an, which in turn got it from the Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida, which had apparently obtained it from anonymous sources in the Israeli government.
