For a head of state to visit the White House and not pose for photographers is rare. For a key ally to be left to his own devices while the President withdraws to have dinner in private was, until this week, unheard of.
Yet that is how Binyamin Netanyahu was treated by President Obama on Tuesday night, according to Israeli reports on a trip seen in Jerusalem tonight as a disastrous humiliation.
After failing to extract a written promise of concessions on Jewish settlements, Mr Obama walked out of his meeting with Mr Netanyahu but invited him to stay at the White House, consult with advisors and let me know if there is anything new, a US congressman who spoke to the Prime Minister said today.
It was awful, the congressman said. One Israeli newspaper called the meeting a hazing in stages, poisoned by such mistrust that the Israeli delegation eventually left rather than risk being eavesdropped on a White House phone line. Another said that the Prime Minister had received the treatment reserved for the President of Equatorial Guinea.

A very impression list.It's impressive if you believe it. I worked for GD, Lockheed, the IAF, worked closely with Elbit and have been to Israel many times. Anyone can post anything online.

Yes, I now see that it’s a fake. It says “This account has been banned or suspended,” but if you click on “OK,” nothing happens. It’s blue and underlined, but it’s not a real link.
I still must say that I don’t think Humblegunner has ever said anything here that I agree with. Oh, well.

Mr Obama then suggested that Mr Netanyahu and his staff stay on at the White House to consider his proposals, so that if he changed his mind he could inform the President right away. Im still around, the Yediot Ahronot daily quoted Mr Obama saying. Let me know if there is anything new. I'd have spit in his face. What an ash-hole.

I don’t think Bibi was humiliated. I wouldn’t be humiliated by a boorish host, I would be pissed! The shame is on zerO (and the American people for having elected such an idiot).

Yet there are those who would actually sacrifice Israel to this, and a couple of them are on this thread. This is the stuff that makes the blood run cold.

Oh, no. Zero would have bowed to the President of Equatorial Guinea and thrown a state dinner.
This subversive little pissant wants to make nicey nice with all the thugs and dictators of the world and he shuns our allies.
He is the worst sort of traitor and bent on the destruction of the country he leads. It’s a complete and utter disaster.

Is this disgraceful treatment of Netanyahu being covered in America at all? Nope, only the British press are covering.

Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it a violation of Sharia for a Muslim to eat with a Jew? That would be another reason he isn't qualified to hold that office.

I read a thread this morning that said BO left the meeting with Netanyahu saying that he had to go have dinner with MO and the girls.
This is beyond humiliation for BiBi. I don’t know what the word is but it’s stronger than anything in my vocabulary.

Not up to your usual stndards of n00bie know-it-all-ness.
You must be tired from educating all us ignorant FReepers.
Have a rest and try again, we expect at least six paragraphs.
To: KTM rider
Not trying to correct you. Just stating the facts. I wish it wasn’t the way it is, but it is.
