Bibi’s “lecturing” of Obamalot provoked some of the administration’s pundit acolytes. But Bibi had been under the One’s guns for some time and must have felt a riposte was overdue.
“After one of his meetings with Netanyahu, Barack Obama simply told the prime minister that he was going upstairs to have dinner. You wouldn’t say that to an ordinary neighbor visiting in your home, without inviting him to join you.
“Obama knew that. Netanyahu knew that. It was a calculated insult. And the American public would have heard about it, if so much of the media didn’t have such a hear-no-evil, see-no-evil and speak-no-evil attitude in its coverage of Barack Obama.”
As always, Thomas Sowell is worth a read.
















Yep, that was an example of petty revenge.
That was Obama’s payback for the Israeli govt. announcing new housing to be built in East Jerusalem during Vice-President Biden’s visit there several months earlier. Since that opening snub and reply, it has been all downhill for any working relationship between Obama and Bibi.
Like Snoop said, it was petty. About what you’d expect from our adolescent president.
