In the hubbub surrounding the battle of the flotilla, Netanyahus quick reversal of his decision to remain in the United States has been largely ignored. It turns out that Obama told him to leave because he didnt want Netanyahu to use the White House as a stage on which to present Israels side of the story.
The flotilla violence caught Netanyahu in the midst of a diplomatic trip to North America. He was in the Canadian capital of Ottawa at the time, about to leave for Washington for a meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama. The meeting was to have been a way for Obama to make up for the humiliation he dealt Netanyahu on his last visit, when he refused to be seen with the Israeli leader in public.
Netanyahu announced immediately after the flotilla news broke that he would remain in North America and would meet with Obama as scheduled. However, within minutes after media reported Netanyahu would continue with his trip as scheduled, he abruptly announced a change of plan and set off immediately for Israel to deal with the flotilla crisis.
Behind the scenes, it was Obama officials who caused the turnabout. Globes cites sources in both Jerusalem and Washington who say that Obama officials gave a clear message to Netanyahus people: Dont come.

“I suggest that we contact the Israeli Consulate and tell them we support Mr. Netanyahu and Israel!”
Great idea. I’m sending a postcard (no white powder/anthrax worries).

Funny, if a Tea Party member said ‘go back to the plantation’ to Obama, all hell would break loose, and the world would condemn the US. Notice how obvious racial remarks by Palestinians go unnoticed?
NOW WILL THE MOSTLY AMERICAN OBAMA VOTING JEWS WAKE UP?
Two commas, actually.
our best two allies Israel and the UK have been slapped in the face time and time again.
This will keep going on until the media starts reporting facts about this white house until then obama and his left wing kooks will try and take over everything they can here while they turn away allies and suck up to those who hate us
FUBO
You do NOT speak for the American People. I refuse to be seen in public with you, so there.
This Administration, Democrats and liberals, including liberal American Jews, look at Netanyahu, personally, as the enemy. He is a right-winter in their minds, not an Israeli, and certainly not fit to be Israel’s PM. And that is all they (think) they need to know.
the people who march and go against Israel are the most disgusting bigoted hate filled people I have come across except those in the homosexual community
What tape? have you heard of one? Wishes
Perhaps I’m out of the loop, but I do think the Israeli’s do recognize this guy Obama as an abberation. This guy is NOT American. This guy got where he is by skullduggery, and that the American people are going to change his hopey diapers this November.
Thanks Scott. I just wish I’d taken the time to write a legible sentence :0)
How long before Obama tried to nuke Israel?
Obama and Helen Thomas. Two islamic-terrorist sympathizers in a pod
Even as a die hard Israel lover and lover of Zion I have to concede there was a big lack of common sense in how Israelis conducting the operation. As someone who comes from an ethnically Jewish background, and a proud Jew indeed, I have heard a lot of jokes and stereotypes about Jews having lack of common sense and this operation in some ways sort of showed it. But I for gladly proclaim they did nothing morally wrong or reprehensible in this at all, they made tactical mistakes but all they did had justification. This is pretty much just more abuse of our one true friend Israel through media supposedly in “control of the zionist lobby”.
But this will still damn Obama to hell and is still one more thing painful to watch. I now worry that God is going to give us more disasters as punishment for our elected representatives continually disrespecting his chosen people.
Something that REALLY puzzles me is...Why in hell did Israel allow Rahm Emanuel to bring his son there for the Bar Mitzbah? And was it a deliberate nasty slap by Rahm to the Jewish people?
Obongo..
If he isn’t the Devil he should be!
It is as if the U.S. elected Rev. Wright. The man hates Jews.
Barack Anti-Semite Obama....
