Netanyahu’s contempt for President Obama

Washington Post ^ | January 27, 2015 | Richard Cohen

[KingofZion]

It would not surprise me if, at the next Republican National Convention, Benjamin Netanyahu took a seat in the delegates-from-abroad section. The Israeli leader has both allied and associated himself with congressional Republicans who differ with President Obama over whether to impose additional sanctions on Iran and who also — let’s not beat around the bush — hate his guts. Their foreign policy is actually a domestic one: to destroy the president.

Whether this is political or personal — or a combination of the two — is beside the point. Whatever the case, when Netanyahu accepted John Boehner’s invitation to address a joint session of Congress in March, he did so without informing the White House. Boehner, too, bypassed the White House. As a result, Netanyahu will come and go and not meet with the president. *** But what concerns me most is how Netanyahu threatens to harm the bipartisan understanding and support of Israel. The prime minister has never been able to hide his disdain for Obama. In May 2011, he made Obama squirm before the TV cameras as he lectured him about Middle East matters in the Oval Office. It was, simply, no way to treat the president of the United States.

*** My feelings, however, are immaterial. What matters above all is the possibility that support of Israel will become a partisan political issue in the United States. It may come as a surprise, but Zionism was once beloved by the American and European left. (The British Labour Party even supported transferring Palestinians out of what is now Israel — a policy that changed once Labour got to govern.) Now, though, the European left has abandoned Israel, adoring the Palestinian cause with a striking naivete.

Contempt is a two-way street.

And he’s a Jew.

I hope you are right that Bibi knows Obama’s secrets. I WISH he would leak ‘em, it would unleash a floodgate of secrets that might cleanse us of this monster and his appointees and cohorts.

[Joe Boucher]

I can see where Bibi can’t stand this narcissist jive ass mooselimb punk.
I kind despise the big eared schmuck too.

Raila Odinga is married to Ida Odinga (born Ida Anyango Oyoo). They have four children - two sons and two daughters. His oldest son, Fidel, is named after Fidel Castro.[23] Their youngest child, Winnie, is named after Winnie Mandela.[23] Raila lives in Nairobi but has a second home in Bondo District. Raila Odinga is an Anglican.[24]

Odinga claims to be a cousin of American Senator and presidential candidate Barack Obama through the latter’s father, Barack Obama Sr., who Odinga claims was his maternal uncle.[25] This claim has not been corroborated, but Obama Sr. did come from the same Luo tribe as Odinga.[25]

Who has contempt, Mr. Richard Cohen of the Washington Post? Obama has insulted and demeaned Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu since his first day in office. What goes around, comes around, Cohen.

Netanyahu is correct to hold Obama in contempt, especially since Obama has sent operatives to Israel to undermine the Israeli PM’s government and replace him with a Muslim-friendly stooge.

Is it treason to meddle in the affairs of a sovereign country in order to put a Muslim Jihadist sellout government in the only democratic nation in the whole Middle East? Obama has certainly done more than his share of treasonable acts since he became POTUS.

This guy is really screwed up. He seems to forget that Obama kept Netanyahu cooling his heals while he had dinner with Michelle and the kids. It's Obama who has been nothing but rude to Ben from Day 1 - not the reverse. You can't really blame Ben for lecturing Barack as he obviously doesn't have a clue when it comes to the Middle East. The notion that Netanyahu could hurt Obama domestically is laughable. Cohen is another self-hating member of the tribe.

Yep - if he was being treated like Obama treats Bibi, he would be crying about being bullied and all sorts of things that just ain't fair...

Sunday on NBC’s “Meet The Press,” when asked why the administration is refusing to use the term “radical Islam,” White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough said, “Lets be clear nobody denies these are Muslims.

And these Muslim who claim their warped view of their ideology is what informed their actions.

Their hateful ideology in this instance. What we simply do not believe is they should somehow be seen as representatives of Islam.

They do not.

It is one of the world’s great religions.”

The American public knows more about Netanyahu's educational experience here in the US than that of Obama. Netanyahu went to elementary, middle, high, college and graduate school here in the US. Netanyahu was reared here in the US. The only thing different about Netanyahu is that he was born in Israel. The MSM refuses to investigate Obama as thoroughly as they have Netanyahu. This is a crime by the so called “unbiased” MSM.

Self hating (liberal) Jew. Lots of them. Similar to self hating Christians (liberals) who voted for Obama.

[EQAndyBuzz]

“A Jewish man wrote the article. Defending Obama, supporting Iran, and attacking Israel. Please explain that to me.”

The man is a self loathing socialist like most American Jews from the NE Corridor. He doesn’t care about Israel, has never cared about Israel and if it was up to him he would change his name to Smith.

Funny thing is the day the communists or Islamists take over, he will be pulled from his office and shot.

I am stunned that Richard Cohen could be so ignorant of what ought to be basic stuff for anyone covering Washington. Just stunned!

[blackdog]

Hey Dick, you reap what you sow.

[Tucker39]

Although his standing to autonimously invite Bibi may be in question, he is 2nd in line to be POTUS in Obola’s absence. And Bibi accepted his invitation.
