As if we needed any more reasons to recognize that Rush Limbaugh will latch on to any pretext to bash President Obama. Today he offered quite the analysis: because Obama spoke at length about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict during his United Nations, he was “bashing Israel.”

In fact, during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly, Obama strongly chastised those “trying to tear down Israel,” whose “existence must not be a subject for debate.” He went on to warn that any who try to “chip away at Israel's legitimacy will only be met by the unshakeable opposition of the United States.”

Here's what “bashing Israel” apparently looks like to Limbaugh:

OBAMA: Those who long to see an independent Palestine must also stop trying to tear down Israel. After thousands of years, Jews and Arabs are not strangers in a strange land. After 60 years in the community of nations, Israel's existence must not be a subject for debate.

Israel is a sovereign state, and the historic homeland of the Jewish people. It should be clear to all that efforts to chip away at Israel's legitimacy will only be met by the unshakeable opposition of the United States. And efforts to threaten or kill Israelis will do nothing to help the Palestinian people. The slaughter of innocent Israelis is not resistance -- it's injustice. And make no mistake: The courage of a man like President Abbas, who stands up for his people in front of the world under very difficult circumstances, is far greater than those who fire rockets at innocent women and children.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu clearly doesn't share Limbaugh's take on Obama's speech. In fact, he had nothing but praise for it, reportedly saying: “I commend this important speech of Obama's and his call to renew the peace process without preconditions. I commend his unequivocal support of Israel as the nation state of the Jewish people.”

This is hardly the first time Limbaugh -- who once boasted that “there is no bigger supporter of Israel than me” -- has suggested that Obama harbors some anti-Israeli bias. Limbaugh has asserted that Obama “surrounds himself” with “Jew-haters” and “anti-Semites” and that he “run[s] around with people who don't like Jews or hate Israel.” He has also accused Obama of “ramping up hatred for Israel” and “hatred of the Jewish people.”
