President Obama is considering cutting all ties with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s YNet News reported on Friday. According to a source cited by the paper, the White House “is contemplating lowering its ties with Israel and putting Kerry as the sole liaison between the two states, as opposed to the open line Netanyahu now enjoys with Obama.”
“The president is pragmatic, if he were to think there was some gain to be made from talking directly with Netanyahu he would do so, but he just prefers not to waste his time,” the White House source said
The report culminates weeks of mounting anger by the White House towards Netanyahu. Administration officials were very critical of Netanyahu’s historic speech earlier this month before a joint session of Congress on the Iranian nuclear threat, and there was even speculation that the White House was attempting to unseat the Israeli Prime Minister.
Following Netanyahu’s landslide electoral victory this week, it appeared as though the tension with the White House might dissipate. The White House took a conciliatory tone on the day of the win, and a Netanyahu loyalist made it clear that the new government would seek to renew trust with the United States.
The peace was short-lived.

Translation: Obama is a coward.
The real issue is Obama’s interfering in foreign elections, just as has happened in so many countries. If it had worked, it would’ve amounted to US inspired regime change...in Israel!
Obama is certifiable, IMO.
And how would a 16 year old teenager govern any differently then Obama has governed ?
was full of crap
No , “Obama Droppings”
I did not know men had “that time of month” but in the case of this POTUS I guess they do.

Obama is, among other nasty things, a first class Chicken$hit.
This is freaking unreal - like some sort of bizarro world Groundhog Day in hell in a time loop. Head exploding...
I know, I can dream, can’t I?
Interpretation: Obama and Kerry have not been able to ‘whipsaw’ Bibi into doing foolish things.
So they’ll quit trying.
Netanyahu should cut ties with Obama’s dipwad. Imagine trying to conduct serious business with Kerry. It’s worse than insulting. It’s nuanced banality, someone put me out of my misery time. Form diplomatic ties with Congress. Give Obama a crack spasm.
A two year old who needs a big spanking.
I guess the "congratulatory" phone call did not go well. O is jealous of Bibi because O cannot win an election without voter fraud and Bibi won his in spite of it.
Netanyahu is lucky. I wish Obama would cut his remaining ties with America too.
That unnamed White House source evidently misspoke.
Clearly he meant to say, "The President is pathetic".
Best pic of the day!
That has to be the post of the day.
Amen, if he has to face a real man he'll wait for a back shot.
