HaAretz ^ | 5/13/2009 | Aluf Benn

U.S. President Barack Obama has sent a message to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu demanding that Israel not surprise the U.S. with an Israeli military operation against Iran. The message was conveyed by a senior American official who met in Israel with Netanyahu, ministers and other senior officials. Earlier, Netanyahu's envoy visited Washington and met with National Security Adviser James Jones and with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and discussed the dialogue Obama has initiated with Tehran.

So he can get a quick call into Iran.

I hope Israel isn’t this stupid, but Obama has just set up the excuse to not support Israel.

“It will get interesting if Obamachev threatens to nuke Israel, as in the novel Fail Safe.”

Wouldn’t it be the irony of the ages if all of the military hardware we’ve given to Israel had to be used against US for Israel to survive?

It strikes me that if the PM calls the White House immediately before the balloon goes up, it’s not technically a surprise.

He should respond to Obama by telling him to kiss his ass.

No to paraphrase NY Fire Fighter Mike Moran, he should kiss his Royal Jewish @$$...

I think the best interests of Israel are also the best interests of the US.

Too bad you are not in the WH

I burn with shame to think such a pretentious two-bit punk would talk that way to a man like Netanyahu.

Yes, total irony. Someone notify Alanis Morissette.

It’s unbelievable that Clinton would go along with stabbing Israel in the back.

Between AWACS, Aegis and satellites, I have a hard time believing that we won’t see what’s happening....unless we’re not looking.

I don't think it's productive to go into detail on this topic, but I suspect an Israeli action will work out if Israel wants it to.

Great movie “The Man Who Never Was”. Based on Operation Mincemeat.

Highly recommend it.

Anyone who still thinks Obama is not a Muslim is a fool.

I was impressed immediately by Obama’s deference to the Saudi King. I don’t know the relationship between Kenya and Saudi but clearly Obama was in the differential position.

Saudi and Iran are not friends. But they are both Islamic. You have to wonder if Obama isn’t playing a hat-trick here.

Is Obama uniting the entire Muslim world under his guidance? Is the unthinkable, thinkable?

Something very strange is happening and Yes, Israel would be stupid to trust Obama with anything. His loyalties lie elsewhere.

Can anyone imagine in their wildest crazy dreams that Obama would bow to Netenyahu? So why is it “acceptable” for him to bow to Saudi a Arabia?

Obama wants the chance to shoot down the Israeli planes before they get to his buddies in Iran.

you mean the Clinton that kissed Mrs Arafat after she gave a speech accusing the Israelis of poisoning Palestinian babies without so much as a whimper?
