Mr. Adler has the right to say whatever he wishes.

Speculating about the advisability of a foreign hit on a sitting president flat breaches taste and decorum and it smuggles betrayal into the mission of the patriot.

old testament style invocation of the blood avenger. Mr Adler would not kill Obama himself, but he would recommend that Israel do it. wow.

He should be sent to Guantanamo Bay. He's a threat to the American president. If a random Muslim guy said this in a random conversation, he would disappear forever.

I might be wrong, but I thought that was protected speech.

Oh, and I would hardly pin on all Israelis the ideas of a single person.

There are limits to freedom of speech, like when you start talking about killing the president. I'm honestly surprised dude hasn't been arrested.

I'm not so sure about that. (http://caffertyfile.blogs.cnn.com/2011/07/21/should-calling-for-the-assassination-of-the-president-be-protected-as-free-speech/)

While mentioning something like that will likely land you a visit from the Secret Service, I think the only way you can get charged is if you actually take steps to carry out what you said.
