You said, "Would you say the same if the US does not support Israel in the UN and Netanyahu "whines" about it?"

Real rational discussion point there, "Virginia".

Israel is a tiny country. No other leader has been treated publicly like Obama has treated Netanyahu, and still remained an ally. There is no question about who is the more honorable leader, Obama or Netanyahu - but you seem to have chosen sides. Bad choice, "Virginia". When someone claims to be "Right_in..." and chooses Obama over a solid leader like Netanyahu, we can only conclude there is some other issue at work...

There's a lot of bad blood on both sides. But in my opinion Netanyahu made a grand strategic blunder during his meeting with Obama when as a guest of the President, in the oval office, Netanyahu publically lectured the President of the United States about the 1967 borders.

Like Obama or hate him, this was a diplomatic mistake for the history books. It set the tone for the next eight years. That Obama hasn't seriously reduced aid to Israel is the unsung miracle.

So, yes, Israel is dissed by this administration. But Israel has not always shown restraint or respect either.
