Via Times of Israel:
The Israeli government on Wednesday accused the White House of lying by denying that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had requested to meet US President Barack Obama later this month in the US.
The accusation will likely serve to further escalate diplomatic tensions between the two countries, which have ramped up in recent days.
“We requested a meeting on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York and also suggested that the prime minister could come to Washington,” for a meeting, a senior government official in Jerusalem told the German DPA news agency on Wednesday.
White House spokesman Tommy Vietor had said earlier that no such request was made or rejected.
On Tuesday evening, after reports surfaced claiming Obama refused to meet Netanyahu during his short US trip later this month — reportedly due to a scheduling issue — it seemed like bilateral relations were headed toward a serious crisis.
But later that night, the president called Netanyahu and the two leaders spoke for about an hour, seemingly calming the situation.

Obama chose to back the Muslim brotherhood in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya nd Syria, effectivley isolating the Magan David. Now Obama’s brethren are stabbing us in the back, which begs the question, what did Hussein know and when did he know it?
Holy crap. I mean we KNEW the one was lying...but now even the Israeli government says so...out loud..in public. Yikes.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Obama has been known to lie. His entire life seems to be a lie. When he is out of office, the lie will be revealed. How will he be able to live among us after that?
>>I can only suggest that Netanyahu reach out to David Letterman to see if he can get a guest spot on the same night.
Hilarious.
Except that it’s so sad.
gee whiz - here I sit with a simple dilemma - the president of the US who has demonstrated hatred for Israel and its prime minister and has also dissembled repeatedly to the American people says, “Believe Me, Israel is lying”.
Not buying it, Big Ears.
I believe that Israel DID suggest an important meeting, and you turned your back on them yet again, to the detriment of our national security.
Obama lies? Does the wind blow?
No, kimosabe (or however the heck you spell it), barak does not lie and the wind does not blow and I am the queen of the England. :-)
Of course the Administration lied, the problem is that no one will tell the American People that this happened.
Clearly you can tell that the Israeli’s do not want Obama in office come next year and will even gamble on future relations with Obama in the hope that people will see he is not on Israel’s side.
God Valerie has a few questions to answer for.
Prayers.
I think there was a congressman who called it right as Obama was giving his first State of the Union... “You lie!”.
You are so right... He was elected by misinformed from all religious backgrounds.
Excellent idea. Write the PM and suggest it. You can write him on this page, but keep trying to get it in as it doesn't come in easily. Interestingly, pages to contact the Israeli PM keep disappearing off the net and I found one for the Israeli's to write to him. If it's the one requesting a Israeli zip code, type in any Israeli zip code, as I do. I write to him fairly often with ideas and support. He needs to know that Obama doesn't represent most of the USA when it comes to Israel.

To us on FR Obama looks like a utter clown - but the MSM news blackout has been pretty effective at damage control this week. I’m not sure any of this is going to stick unless the RNC makes TV ads detailing Obama’s failures.
