Obama snubbed Netanyahu for dinner with Michelle and the girls, Israelis claim
Daily Telegraph ^ | 03/25/2010 | Adrian Blomfield

Benjamin Netanyahu was left to stew in a White House meeting room for over an hour after President Barack Obama abruptly walked out of tense talks to have supper with his family, it emerged on Thursday.

The snub marked a fresh low in US-Israeli relations and appeared designed to show Mr Netanyahu how low his stock had fallen in Washington after he refused to back down in a row over Jewish construction in east Jerusalem.

The Israeli prime minister arrived at the White House on Tuesday evening brimming with confidence that the worst of the crisis in his country's relationship with the United States was over.

...

When the Israeli prime minister stalled, Mr Obama rose from his seat declaring: "I'm going to the residential wing to have dinner with Michelle and the girls."

As he left, Mr Netanyahu was told to consider the error of his ways. "I'm still around," Mr Obama is quoted by Israel's Yediot Ahronot newspaper as having said. "Let me know if there is anything new."

Here’s an Open Question for the American Jewish Democratic Voter:

Are you enjoying this circus, put on by your president, at Israel’s expense?

(Just curious.)

Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

Thanks Obama for bringing God’s curse on us.

Israel has MUCH more stalwart friends and support among conservative Catholics and Christians, than the typical American Jew.

Not a good idea to mock God’s chosen people.

So this is the vaunted diplomacy we heard about during the 2008 campaign.

Looks like my prediction from Nov 2008 was wrong. I should have included Israel too.

My Nov 14 2008 prediction about the coming EU disillusionment with Obama

"My guess is that the EU is going to be shocked when they realize just how arrogant Obama is. I’m sure they, in their own condescending way, are thinking “Ah, finally a man we can work with! One who will listed to us and be guided by our nuanced knowledge of world affairs!”. Instead after they deal with Obama they will come away angry about being bossed around by him. He thinks he’s king of the world now. He doesn’t want some sniveling beaurocrat in Belgium telling him what to do! They will take his instructions or else!"

I’d rather eat boiled shoe leather than break bread with this anti-Semitic Marxist. I sure hope Bibi realizes the petulant intractability of the boy he is dealing with.

Netanyahu needs to verbally whip the community organizer in the media at a press conference to show what a little miserable POS he is.

Let’s pray that God’s wrath falls on Obama and his minions.

We know how God values the Jewish people, and how He hates pride.

I pray that the Lord removes these idiots from power before it’s too late. Maybe the House can initiate impeachment proceedings when the Republicans return to power early next year.

Does anyone now believe that OBAMA is NOT a Muslim who HATES ISRAEL?
And Ninety Percent of Jewish Americans Voted for OBOZO!
Maybe they will wake up before its too late again!
But Netanyahu and Israel shouldn’t feel alone!
OBAMA HUSSEIN Hates AMERICA Equally! In fact, it appears he Hates Everyone who isn’t a Communist Dictator...like Chavez,Castro, Chairman Mao, Stalin, Lenin just to name a few of his obvious Hero’s and Role Models......:-(
