Netanyahu: If Israel doesn't take out Iranian threat, no one will

[dapoes]

Link If Israel does not eliminate the Iranian threat, no one will, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday.

"Israel is not like other countries," Netanyahu told his Likud faction in a meeting which came one week after his meeting with President Barack Obama at the White House. "We are faced with security challenges that no other country faces, and our need to provide a response to these is critical, and we are answering the call."

Addressing the differing Israeli and American approaches to the issue of West Bank settlements, Netanyahu said the issue resembled a disagreement between good friends.

This will end badly, and yet again the world will look on it and ask "how could we let this happen"...again.

This will be Obama's legacy. :down:

You really need to pick a side and stick with it. You piss and moan that Obama will not address the Iran issue yet when Israel says they will if we don't you still piss and moan. Get over your self and just pick one side.

Obama to Israel:

Obama Demands To Stop West Bank Expansion Includes Jerusalem

WASHINGTON -- President Obama received Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas at the White House today with a valuable welcoming gift: a toughly-worded, categorical US demand for Israel to stop settlements in Palestinian territories.

Israel to Obama:
Pound Sand

Israel defies US on settlements growth
Construction will continue in east Jerusalem and West Bank, official says, despite Hillary Clinton's call to stop

So I guess we can add yet another country to the list. The official list of countries who considers Obama and his (merry band of fools) administration irrelevant.

Israel
Iran
North Korea
Europe
The world...etc

In addition to the above, a very telling indicator...

No 'change you can believe in' for Obama ambassadors

WASHINGTON (AFP) – Despite his promises of change, President Barack Obama has kept tradition by naming top donors to plum ambassador posts, drawing fire from career US diplomats and causing dismay among some US allies.

Obama has been criticized for naming fund raisers with no diplomatic experience -- and who together drummed up well over a million dollars for his record-shattering campaign -- to be ambassadors to Britain, France and Japan.

"It's an 18th-century practice we are continuing which no other major democratic country does," said Ronald Neumann, a veteran ambassador and head of the American Academy of Diplomacy, an advocacy group of former senior diplomats.

"It's not 'change you can believe in,' but it's not terribly surprising," said Neumann, referring to Obama's campaign slogan.

Obama named Louis Susman, a former Citigroup banker in Chicago once dubbed the "vacuum cleaner" for his prowess sucking up money, as ambassador to London.

Obama also tapped two major California fund raisers -- naming Charles Rivkin, the former producer of "The Muppets" children show, to Paris and Silicon Valley lawyer John Roos to Tokyo.

"Despite the rhetoric, this administration is no different than previous administrations, expect it looks like their appointments might be better," Abramowitz said.

Its good to be on Obama's side! :blink: :huh:

Administration blocks helicopters for Israel due to civilian casualties in Gaza

Government sources said the administration has held up Israel's request for the AH-64D Apache Longbow attack helicopter. The sources said the request was undergoing an interagency review to determine whether additional Longbow helicopters would threaten Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip.

If at anytime there is any debate needed, that Obama and the new administration is anti semitic for the sole purpose of Islamic appeasement, that time looks like it will never happen.
