Gawd I love this guy Bibi! First Sarkozy and now Netanyahu ...am I sensing a bandwagon? WOO HOO!
Hell, I was in DC last week, I didn’t let the wussy in the White House know I was coming either.
Damn! I would love to see Bibi and Sarah together! Sarah is Israels best hope as a friend in American politics....and that is the truth.
“Why would he have to ask permission to visit the U.S.?”
Nobody else does ... they just walk right in.
This is almost as bad a breach of protocol as giving someone a $25 boxed set of DVDs with the wrong region code or a MP3 player loaded with ones speeches ... oh, wait ...
Seems like ignoring that flap earred nitwit in the WH is a sound thing to do.
You are correct.
George W. Bush loves this country and honored the office of the presidency, at the very least the PM would have recognized that and showed respect. What we have now is a Whitehouse occupied by Chicago thugs disrespecting everything the establishment stands for, what's there to respect. I just hope there'll be something left to salvage after they're gone.

I don’t think the current administration cares very much for Netanyahu - or Israel.
Cool, Israeli flag!
and that’s NOT a photoshop
That would be awesome.
On the other hand, failure to invite Netanyahu to the White House may be perceived as a diplomatic crisis.
Yep but by whom?
I really don’t think the Israelis perceive it as such
so that can only mean the Obtuse Administration is
realizing what a blunder this is.

Major Jewish Agency Parley Set for Sunday Reported: 09:20 AM - Oct/25/09
(IsraelNN.com)
A major meeting of the Jewish Agency is set for Sunday. The crowd will be addressed by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, and Natan Scharansky, the new chairman of the board of the Jewish Agency, will address the group for the first time.
Discussions at the meeting will include the fate of Jewish education in the Diaspora, development of a a “new paradigm” relationship between Israel and the Diaspora, efforts to increase aliyah, and methods of helping to develop Israeli society.
Note: Natan Scharansky
In 1986, Congress granted him the Congressional Gold Medal.[8] In 2006 US President George W. Bush awarded him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.[9] On 17 September 2008, Sharansky was awarded the 2008 Ronald Reagan Freedom Award, the highest honor bestowed by the Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation
Yes, he is a statesman. Something that ultra leftwing radical POS in the White House will never be.
Gee, and Obama has been such a supporter of Israel. (/s)
Wrong. For a head of state to visit another country without informing that country's head of state is a HUGE breach of protocol, and in this case, it's an INTENTIONAL INSULT!
Way to go Bibi!!!
The TOTUS is now spitting lil cotton balls.
