Acting Knesset head Binyamin (Fouad) Ben-Eliezer has asked Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to urge United States President Barack Obama to address the Knesset during his upcoming visit to Israel.
The nation of Israel definitely thirsts to hear the United States President speak to them directly, he argued. There is no more appropriate venue than the Knesset for the U.S. President to speak.
I believe that this act, of a direct address to Israel in the Knesset assembly
during this visit, specifically, would carry tremendous importance, he added.
MK Reuven Rivlin, speaker of the last Knesset, agreed. The Knesset is the arena of debate and decision-making, and as such is the only place to present diplomatic initiatives and any process with serious implications for the state of Israel, he said.
An appeal to the Israeli public, even from heads of friendly countries, should be made from the Knesset podium, he said. Members of the Knesset will doubtless know how to show respect, he added.
The White House has confirmed that Obama is planning his first trip to Israel since being elected president in March. He will also visit Jordan and the Palestinian Authoritys seat of power in Ramallah.

I'm thirsty to not hear The Won at all, and if Binyamin Ben-Eliezer has nothing better to say, the same goes for him.

I think if anything, it means that we’ll all want to get good and drunk after listening to what this piece of crap has to say.

Just send the teleprompter and let them read it themselves.
There's no good golf courses in Israel.

They have not yet learned what we learned long ago...he is a “blank slate” he will be whatever they imagine he is. He will say or do whatever his audience wants...but it is all lies. I predict Israelis will be positive about his speech, but when they get home will realize he has picked their pocket.

Yeah, super hero Soetoro, along with the teleprompter comes his body double or maybe his excellency is leading another seal team to the mid east? Bebe better be careful, his arch enemy is coming. He may be arriving as a modern day Trojan horse. Before the only use for his excellency and the word Trojan was for his excellency to wear one over his head to be a real p...k.

Why don't they just build a temple and sit him on the mercy seat. That would confirm all my suspicions about this man
