US President Barack Obama on Friday called on Egypt to protect Israel's embassy from demonstrators in Cairo, as he spoke by telephone to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, officials said.
Obama expressed "great concern" over the incident and explained steps Washington was taking in response, including a call on Egypt "to honor its international obligations to safeguard the security of the Israeli Embassy."
"The President expressed his great concern about the situation at the Embassy, and the security of the Israelis serving there," a White House statement said.
"The President and the Prime Minister agreed to stay in close touch until the situation is resolved."

As if any country’s leaders respect this clown
We have zilch influence with him as president
A little late to the party, as usual.
They are probably laughing at obamma’s request?
Wink. Wink. What level of US official called the Egyptian ruling Military Council?
Isn’t hussein funding the “rebels” who are attacking the embassy?
By the way, who’s obamma going to call? Who’s in charge?
The former junior US Senator from Illinois is calling on Egypt to follow a basic principle of international law that is as old as Egypt’s history? He’s really going out on a limb, as one would expect from a “leader” who was selected for the reasons that sent this clown to our White House.
OMG!!! I love being right on from the Gitgo!!! African Muslim, POTUS Barack Hussein Obama and the “Arab Spring”!!! What Arab Spring??? There is none. Our USA POTUS Obama is the benefactor and soul brother of “his” Muslim Brotherhood” brethren in both Egypt and Libya, etc. Folks, that was the Obama plan all the time!!! Turn the entire Middle East & North Africa into a “Muslim Brotherhood” entity!!! Obama can now remain silent, while his soul brothers in the Muslim Brotherhood jail & murder innocent African Black Christians in Libya and...ditto for innocent Israeli Jew settlers in Israel, attacked by Muslim Brotherhood terrorists from Egypt!! Some “Arab Spring”!!! I do sincerely hope the religious Jews in NY-9 recognize clearly that POTUS Obama is no friend of any Jew or Israeli!!! In fact, he is their destructive, motivated enemy!!! Remember that folks next Tuesday when you go to the polls in NY-9. Defeat Obama and his crony, incompetent, phoney!!! Vote for Turner!!!
With zer0 talking it has to be code for doing the opposite of what comes out of the zer0’s mouth. Coded message ... imho
Yes, the Obama, Muslim Brotherhood has torched and destroyed the Egyptian embassy in Cairo, Egypt!!! Good show, POTUS Obama!!! Your beloved brethren, the Muslim Brotherhood now control Egypt and the murder of innocent Jews has begun under their deft and Obama inspired hands!!! Ditto in Libya by the Muslim Brotherhood, except the victims in Libya are innocent African Black Christians by the hundreds or even thousands. Great job, again, POTUS Obama. Where, might I ask, is the Obama Arab Spring!!!! Answer: Nowhere to be found. Never was any Arab Spring!!! Jews and American Blacks should hang their heads in shame for supporting, this truly, anti-American, African Muslim, POTUS, Barack Hussein Obama!!!!
The destruction of the Israeli Embassy in Cairo was exactly what he expected.
It’s all OK. They have the Israeli terror report of names and address of all their surveillance videos. They got what they wanted and hope the Israeli’s shred in time. Pray for Israel America, we’re next.
For some reason, I do not believe bammy!
Either this is feigned concern, or this guy is the biggest fool the world has ever seen.
How magnanimous and clever for Obama to close the barn door after the horses have escaped.
Give that man another Nobel Prize...

Wonder what he said in private...?
as he spoke by telephone to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin NetanyahuObama lies.
