'We're Committed to Israel's Security', Reiterates White House
INN ^ | 1/23/15 | Elad Benari, Canada

White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Friday explained that President Barack Obama’s decision not to meet with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu when he visits Washington to address Congress, is related solely to the timing of the visit - close to the Israeli elections.

Speaking to reporters, Earnest said that even if there are disagreements between the United States and Israel, Washington remains committed to Israel’s security.

The comments were made a day after the White House made clear that neither Obama nor Secretary of State John Kerry would meet Netanyahu while he is in Washington for his speech before Congress.

“It is common that the leader of a country who comes to visit the United States will coordinate this with the president. This is not a deviation from the protocol,” Earnest said on Friday, according to Channel 10 News, though he stressed that "at this point the president does not plan to meet with Netanyahu because the visit is before the Israeli elections, and we do want to create a false impression of interference in the elections."

I guess this is Obama’s vision of “unity” - everybody b!@#h-slapping everybody else.

I hope Obama doesn’t fall over from backpedaling so fast, or not.

Which is why Obama has let go some serious terrorists, refuses to meet with Bibi, fails to get tough on Iran, refuses to allow our military to harm ISIS beyond token strikes, etc, etc, etc.

Obama is a muslim and salivates at Israel being harmed.
