This cant really be the reason, can it?
The PM made the decision Thursday after finding out that several Muslim states intend to bring up Israels failure to sign the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Earlier, the PMs Office issued an official statement announcing the trip.
In the last 24 hours we received reports about the intention of various states that will be present at the Washington conference to go beyond the issue of preventing nuclear terror, a senior source in Jerusalem said. These states intend to exploit the occasion in order to slam Israel. The prime minister expressed his displeasure over these intentions, and he will therefore not be traveling to the summit.
Israels atomic energy minister will go in his place. Heres the full list of countries attending the summit, but its no mystery who theyre worried about. Its Egypt and Turkey, the latter of which has been lobbying against sanctions on Iran and which called Israel the principal threat to peace in the Middle East just yesterday. Surely, though, Netanyahu realized all along that those two would try to make Israeli nukes an issue, in which case why agree to attend in the first place? In fact, U.S. officials as recently as this week tried to give him comfort:

We need to get rid of this guy while the getting is still good.
Plus, Obummer would probably agree with the Muslims and slam our ally. No need to come here for that kind of treatment.
Treaties are only as good as the people who sign them.
Nuff said.
Hope they pee all over nObama's parade.
Good decision.
Obama is not the president. He is the visible face of some Sorosian cabal and it is pointless to treat him as president.
He can’t be ignored, he has the capacity to do real damage, but president of Americans that he isn’t.
I believe the American people will stand behind Israel and they know it. We may not agree with everything they do but we would still back them.
Why is this an ‘uh oh’?
Bide your time Israel. We will eliminate this userper from office in 2012, if he isn’t impeached before then.
Hussein is back with treaty in hand.
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Obyummer revokes all of Israeli nuclear scientists visas with one hand while he directs NASA to redirect our Space Program monies to “predominantly Muslim countries” - to teach them the industry - you know, how to make rockets, rocket fuel...

How anyone can today deny that we have a Muslim pres. is beyond my understanding. He's done everything but stick minarets on the four corners of the White House -
Obyummer keeps everyone busy watching his right hand - we need to remember he's left handed. And with Muslims, that's the hand that does the dirty stuff.
Obama just signed that treaty with Russia. Probably would try to use worlwide pressure at this nuclear summit to try to strongarm Bibi into signing a similar agreement. If Bibi signed it would leave Israel defenseless in a hostile world, esp now that Israel can no longer count on America for help. Obama is trying to destroy Israel.
Those that produce mountains of so-called suicide martyrs will use nuclear weapons regardless.....
Gentlemen! Gentlemen! There will be no fighting in the War Room!
So I go and read a positive topic and for a moment, get my anger and resolve back.
I am part of the tea party revolution and I will NOT let my country go uhbama's socialist hellacious way without a FIGHT.
Well then why isn’t Netanyahu pulling out of the summit a good thing?
