Netanyahu Repays Obama for Political Ploys
[Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu] expects to hear a reaffirmation from President Obama of U.S. commitments made to Israel in 2004, which were overwhelmingly supported by both houses of Congress.
-- Statement from the Israeli prime minister ahead of his meeting today with Obama.
The good news for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: President Obamas surprising embrace of the Palestinian demand that Israel return to its borders prior to the 1967 Six-Day War gives Netanyahu additional political security at home. With Obama siding with the Palestinians on this key point, Netanyahus hard-line stance will be vindicated.
The bad news for Netanyahu: Obama has deprived him of a key bargaining chip as world pressure mounts for him to restart negotiations with the re-radicalized Palestinians.
Obama and his political aides (particularly Rahm Emanuel) have somewhat openly worked to dislodge the hawkish Netanyahu from power, preferring to install more moderate leadership for Israel in an effort to jump-start talks with the Arabs and end Israeli construction projects in areas claimed by the Palestinians.
But faced with shrinking their borders and splitting the holy city of Jerusalem, Israelis stuck with Netanyahu and his popularity has grown as unrest has spread across the Arab world, now with increasing menace toward Israel.....

Bibi was a hottie.
Not so our young Obama, except for of course in the Boystown bathhouses...
Yay for them.
I wish my Jewish relatives would change their minds about Obama.
They think he’s the greatest thing since Manishewitz wine!
“If the election were to be held this week, the GOP might get a big 20% of the “Jewish” vote! Maybe as much as 22%. “
The important thing here is that it may put a dent in Bo’s ability to become the Billion dollar man.
Exactly.
Here's another photo to compare:
Thats Bibi? What a hunk! Just like Bush in his day was also a hunk.
I can say this because he resembles my husband in his 30s and weve been married 54 yrs.
Eat your heart out limp wrist hussein.
Wow!
I heard that Bibi bitchslapped Obammy, but cannot find any details about it anywhere.
I find it interesting that the kenyan talks about 1967 boarders with such authority, yet he was only 6 years old at time of Six Day war—wherever he was born...
Our executive branch reminds me of the movie Idiocracy :(
And look at Bibi’s expression. He’s thinking how easy it would be to kick Obammy’s a$$ so hard that his nose would bleed!

That picture is insulting to Bibi. I wish Bibi had spit on on uhbama’s hand. I do. ( Or at the very least shoved that ugly mitt out of the way and told that pompous freak to grow up.)
All I can say is WOW!
I hope Bibi knows that the only people who are not with Israel are
the commies and not us true Americans.
Hell, I’m not even Jewish. I’d move to Israel if I could.
That picture is insulting to America. That's our snotty, arrogant president representing us to the world. We deserve better representation.
“....a Dick Cheney moment....”
.
Dick Chaney had his chance to mention Bambi’s ineligibility before the elections.
Don’t tell me that Bush and Cheney did not know exactly what this country was in for in 2008. But they chose to stay mute, and with them many others.
Yeah right, profiles in courage.
OMW! Please tell me that this photo is not for real. The Pharoah actually invaced Netanyahu’s space like that? What a disgusting, gauche pretender we have at the WH.
invaced=invaded
a liberal Jew is a liberal first
Bibi was a hottie.

Correction: Bibi still is.
I thought it was real, but you are right to be skeptical. I looked around and found the image posted below hosted on the Wall Street Journal website. Apparently both photos were taken at the same event in Jerusalem on July 23, 2008. The two photos appear to show the same ties, the same guy in the background, the same sign on the wall, and more.
For what it's worth.
