I’m old.
IOW, Bibi definitely needs to hold the line against the Kenyan jihadist, to keep his domestic support solid. Thanks Nachum.
From your lips...

Bolton: Sending Kerry to Ukraine Talks ‘Like Sending a Cupcake to Negotiate With a Steak Knife’

Sending Secretary of State John Kerry to negotiate with his Russian counterpart in a failed bid to avert a Moscow-backed referendum in Crimea was “like sending a cupcake to negotiate with a steak knife,” former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton said on Sunday. Speaking as the referendum was underway, Bolton told Fox News that both the Obama administration and the European Union (E.U.) were demonstrating weakness in their handling of the Ukraine crisis.
Even after Kerry’s last-ditch talks with Lavrov on Saturday failed to avert the referendum, Kerry seemed reluctant to talk about sanctions. Asked during a press conference after the talks whether U.S. and E.U. sanctions would now be a fait accompli on Monday, he agreed that Obama and the E.U. “have said if the referendum takes place, there will be some sanctions” – but then added immediately, “There’ll be some response, put it that way.” Kerry referred several times during the press availability to Russia’s “legitimate concerns” and “legitimate interests” in Ukraine. “We hope President Putin will recognize that none of what we’re saying is meant as a threat. It’s not meant as a – in a personal way,” he said.
The arrogant SOB in the White House is livid over Bibi. He can’t stand the fact that Bibi won’t kowtow to His ego.
I’m old enough to remember Ngo Dinh Diem. And keep in mind that we’ve seen the exact same thing before. In 1998 Bill Clinton sent James Carville to Israel to interfere with their elections and make sure Netanyahu was thrown out. How did that work out? Well, none of the three guys who followed Netanyahu as prime minister were very successful at stopping the terrorist menace; that’s why Netanyahu is back now.
Ditto that.
Someone in Egypt was supposed to have some dirt on him too.
Hoovers and Kirbys of the world unite!
Bolton already called him a “cupcake”.
obama can’t lead his own Country and he needs to keep his nose and floppy ears out of others..there are jobs here that need completed...like SIGN THE DAMN KEYSTONE PIPE LINE..
HE WILL TAKE THIS NATION TO WAR YET..HE IS SO THIN SKINNED, MAYBE HE WILL STAY IN EUROPE NEXT WEEK...DO US A FAVOR...
Is Bibi going to be in a traffic accident? He had better get his brakes checked. I don’t put anything past that scum in the White House.
I can throw a ball better than that and I am a girl.
Bibi looked good back then and he still does today.
Remember Dien Bien Phu.
Ya know, we have a prime international opponent that is standing three feet away, ready to kick our tail, and here the administration is worried about a small country, again.
So now, Obama thinks he can get Bibi removed, like he did with the Arab countries???
If not the Russians with a first strike, the Israelis would definitely find a way to get some satisfaction!
