In a highly unusual rebuff to a close ally, the White House said on Tuesday that President Barack Obama would not meet Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during a U.S. visit later this month, as tensions escalated over how to deal with Iran's nuclear program.

The apparent snub, coupled with Netanyahu's sharpened demands for a tougher U.S. line against Iran, threatened to plunge U.S.-Israeli relations into crisis and add pressure on Obama in the final stretch of a tight presidential election campaign.

An Israeli official, who declined to be identified, said the White House had refused Netanyahu's request to meet Obama when the Israeli leader visits the United States to attend the U.N. General Assembly, telling the Israelis, "The president's schedule will not permit that."

“The world tells Israel, `Wait. There’s still time,’” Netanyahu said Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. “And I say: `Wait for what? Wait until when?’ Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran don’t have a moral right to place a red light before Israel.”

Egyptian demonstrators climbed the walls of the US Embassy in Cairo today and pulled down the American flag to protest a film they say is insulting to the prophet Mohammad.

CNN reports that U.S. security guards fired a volley of warning shots as the crowd gathered outside the embassy walls.

CNN adds that the embassy had been expecting a demonstration and cleared all diplomatic personnel earlier from the facility.

Oh, come on, Prof, that's an easy one...

President Obama picks up the phone and says:

Prime Minister? I would like to postpone our meeting until after the election. I'll have a lot more flexibility then.

See how easy that was??
 
I woke up with a kink in my neck today. I'm pretty sure that's Obama's fault too.

Obamacare, Romneycare, what's the difference? :lol:
 
Obama ignores listening to Isreal whine we do not sacrifice US lives and money at their demand over an issue they made because they cannot live peacefully with anyone but their god's chosen. Yeah, i know i am disappointed we wont be getting into war with Iran this week. instead of fast and furious why don't we give some guns, ammo, and a free ticket to the middle east to any jew who wants to sacrifice their lives and fight for their holy land? Hey, we can give Mitt Romney the same invitation for his children and watch the whole family beg france for citizenship.

I love republicans, they say we have no money and need fiscal responsibility, but let us get into another war with money we borrow from china. Mitt Wants another cold war with russia too, and perhaps we could make another try at vietnam. that is republican fiscal responsibility for you. Let us piss off the globe, we don't need anyone but the US and isreal. It is because of that huge and effective isreali army. They are such great allies we need in the world, yet they can't fight a single battle without big brother US doing the dying for them.

Obama denies snubbing Netanyahu amid chill


I guess you won't accept this because its not what you want to hear.
 
There is NO reason for Obama to meet with Netanyahu..

Its all been decided.. Bibi doesn't want peace and Obama is not ready to attack Iran. What the h*ll is there to talk about.

Its a waste of time for our president... just as Israel has wasted the time of every US president and betrayed our generosity and financial support.

Let Bibi rant and rave and run his mouth.. If he is determined to attack Iran.. he should do so..

I don't know why Bibi can't get the message. Biden told him 3 years ago to GD have at it.
 
Oh my god this exact scheduling didn't work out this means we hate Israel now.

Hate Israel? Obama just gave them Iron Dome and increased their yearly welfare.
 
US President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have spoken and are "united" in efforts to keep Iran from getting a nuclear weapon, the White House says.

After saying earlier on Tuesday that Obama and Netanyahu could not meet in New York later this month due to a scheduling conflict, the White House said the Israeli leader had never asked to see Obama in the US capital.

"Contrary to reports in the press, there was never a request for Prime Minister Netanyahu to meet with President Obama in Washington, nor was a request for a meeting ever denied," the statement said.

Obama, Netanyahu united on Iran

yeah.... I say **** Netanyahu...


On Tuesday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that the United States had refused to be firm with Tehran and thus had forfeited its moral right to stop Israel from taking action against Iran’s nuclear program. Netanyahu’s comments seem to indicate that an Israeli strike is closer than anyone thinks.

===================

"The world tells Israel: Wait. There's still time. And I say: Wait for what? Wait until when? Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran don't have a moral right to place a red light before Israel."​


This combined with Israel sapping extraordinary amounts of US taxpayer dollars all while spying on us... Netanyahu can take a hike.


You want war so ****ing badly Mr. Netanyahu... go alone and if that means we "forfeit" our moral right with you, perhaps we should forfeit all that ****ing money we send you annually.

I wont let my opinion be dictated by fact-checkers.
 
This is Obama's biggest snub of Netanyahu, yet.

I guess we can't keep Letterman waiting.
 
Again... **** Netanyahu.

We wouldn't have to give them welfare, if they weren't a socialist country.

So should Obama support socialism or not?
 
Are conservatives insecure? They seem to need constant reassurance. The most minor events seem to send them into a hysterical tizzy.
 
That's why I'm so puzzled as to why Libbos hate Israel.

I didn't realize they hated Israel. I thought that was something Connos lied about to keep attention away from the fact that they really love socialism. :lol:
 
Some reality for you...

So you are going to take the completely ignorant stance that Netanyahu IS in fact Israel.

**** Netanyahu. Israel is better than him.
 
Some reality for you...

I don't hate Nitwit-yoohoo. I just like to make fun of his name. It is possible to not like Netenyahu but still like Israel.
