Obama Snubs Netanyahu at White House
Friday, 26 Mar 2010
By: Dan Weil
President Obama snubbed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in several ways during his visit to Washington this week.
The White House is upset with Netanyahu’s recent decision to approve Jewish construction in east Jerusalem.
The approval was announced during Vice President Biden’s recent visit to Israel to spark peace negotiations with Palestinians. The Obama administration is miffed by what it sees as Israeli intransigence on this issue.
The White House denied Netanyahu the red carpet treatment generally afforded to visiting heads of state.
The Israeli prime minister and Obama didn’t pose for photos together, and Netanyahu was excluded from dinner with the president Tuesday night.
When Netanyahu wouldn’t agree to concessions, Obama left a meeting with him, though he invited Netanyahu to stay at the White House, talk to Obama advisers and “let me know if there is anything new,” a U.S. congressman who spoke to Netanyahu, told The Times of London.
“It was awful,” the congressman said.
One Israeli newspaper called the meeting “a hazing in stages,” conducted in such an adversarial environment that the Israeli delegation eventually left, worried that their White House phone conversations were being bugged.
Another Israeli paper wrote that Netanyahu received “the treatment reserved for the president of Equatorial Guinea”.
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs quibbled with details of the Israeli accounts but didn’t deny that the White House was sending a message to Netanyahu.
That message: his refusal to freeze construction is the biggest obstacle to resuming peace talks with the Palestinians.
While the two countries are trying to overcome the clash, “the writing is on the wall that Obama and Netanyahu are going to clash on the final status (of the Palestinians),” Robert Malley, director of the International Crisis Group’s Middle East program, told The New York Times.

Hi, David Axelrod.
It is what it is. If we as a nation dont care anymore, why should I? I was in Bronx night court last week and looking around figured that I was outvoted in that room probably about 85 to 5.
As for Israel, tough shit. Liberal jews supported and voted for MAObama and now have to deal with it. Sarah Silverman should think next time before schlepping thousands of yentas across the country to support an avowed marxist.
So I really dont give a rats ass anymore. I warned everyone what was coming.

Take all the pictures you want, even get an autograph, but no more money.

Because if the tea partys are racist for oppposing Obama then Obama is an anti-semite for not kissing Isreals ass.

Obama IS a proven racist we know that based on everything he has said and done.Just the fact that he sat in a racist church and listened to the babbling of a sawed off runt racist like Wright CLEARLY shows that.So,I dont think its much of a stretch to call him an anti-semite.

They get how much money/year and still need a public handjob every visit?!

Either way, Obama is acting like an idiot considering he bows to everyone else. Either bow to everyone or bow to no one.

So a bunch of people are going to say this is only about the settlements, blah blah blah.... he was probably avoiding the inevitable "Is this healthcare reform thingy gonna gonna mess with our money?" question. :)
