We missed this last time we scanned Sacha Dratwa’s Facebook profile—which he’s left public through all the scrutiny. But now that Israel and Hamas finally have a cease fire in effect, we took another look. The above image of Dratwa’s face smeared with what appears to be mud, uploaded by Dratwa himself, is captioned “Obama Style,” a sentiment Obama probably wouldn’t appreciate, particularly after funding the Iron Dome system that’s helped the IDF protect innocent Israeli citizens.

The photo was uploaded a month ago, and has been removed only within the last couple days.
