Binyamin Netanyahu Humiliated After Barack Obama 'Dumped Him For Dinner'

Binyamin Netanyahu Humiliated After Barack Obama 'Dumped Him For Dinner'

(AP Photo/Cliff Owen) The President was said to have walked out of the meeting, saying to Mr Netanyahu: 'Let me know if there is anything new' Giles Whittell, Washington, and James Hider, Jerusalem

For a head of government to visit the White House and not pose for photographers is rare. For a key ally to be left to his own devices while the President withdraws to have dinner in private was, until this week, unheard of. Yet that is how Binyamin Netanyahu was treated by President Obama on Tuesday night, according to Israeli reports on a trip viewed in Jerusalem as a humiliation.

After failing to extract a written promise of concessions on settlements, Mr Obama walked out of his meeting with Mr Netanyahu but invited him to stay at the White House, consult with advisers and “let me know if there is anything new”, a US congressman, who spoke to the Prime Minister, said.

“It was awful,” the congressman said. One Israeli newspaper called the meeting “a hazing in stages”, poisoned by such mistrust that the Israeli delegation eventually left rather than risk being eavesdropped on a White House telephone line. Another said that the Prime Minister had received “the treatment reserved for the President of Equatorial Guinea”.

Obama probably thought that he was being humiliated by Netanyahu, because Israel wouldn’t agree to commit suicide on cue. Bibi stood his ground and didn’t give in—good for him!

Sadly, jewish celebrity folk like Steven Speilberg will be cheering over this...they have lost their identity here in America because material wealth and pretending it is right to dole out OTHER people's hard earned money because such a belief makes them better people (lots of guilt over their uber ridiculous salaries).

I hope Bibi gave duhbama a real arse whooping in that meeting, NOBODY deserves one more.

Zero is an immature, child President

No he is not! He is an evil enemy of our country. His aim is to destroy everything great about our America.

Wake up! There is nothing childlike or immature about him.

He is our enemy!

The sort of trashy behavior we might expect from a churlish, third-rate, Banana Republic dictator. Which, come to think of it, is just what our new president is.

NO, he is an arrogant leader who hopes to incite violance in USA, so he can invoke martial law....this man is dangerous to our overall safety. He knows exactly what he is doing.
Just as the dems are playing up the threats to exact violance against the Republicans, and it worked since Cantor had a bullet hit is office in Va.

The Security group at Congress said today, that there is no upswing in threats on Congressial switchboards (Fox News).....that isn’t what Dems are claiming, so why else would they lie?

OK. You are right with what you say, and I agree with you on all that. But I still think he’s immature.
