In attempt to shore up support among Jewish voters, US President Barack Obama bragged Thursday about his administration’s unprecedented support to the occupying state of Israel, and reassured that no ally is more important to him than Israel.

In a speech he delivered before campaign donors at the Manhattan home of Jack Rosen, chairman of the American Jewish Congress, Obama said: “I try not to pat myself too much on the back, but this administration has done more for the security of the state of Israel than any previous administration.”

"We don't compromise when it comes to Israel’s security ... and that will continue,” Ynetnews quoted the US president as saying.

Obama further pointed out that “wether it’s making sure that our intelligence cooperation is effective, to making sure that we’re able to construct something like an iron dome so that we don’t have missiles raining down on Tel Aviv, we have been consistent in insisting that we don’t compromise when it comes to Israel’s security.”
