A day after US columnist Jeffrey Goldberg quoted US President Barack Obama as saying that Israel under Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu does not know what is in its own best interest, Netanyahu visited the Gaza border Wednesday, was told that December was the quietest month in the last 12 years, and essentially replied to Obama: "Yes I do."

"I think everyone understands that only Israel's citizens will be the ones to determine who faithfully represents Israel's vital interests," Netanyahu said on a visit to an army base near Gaza in his first direct response to Obama's reported criticism.

Netanyahu “doesn’t know what its own best interests are,”

says the man who doesn’t know what’s best for America.

The arrogance, the ignorance, of the Chicago Street Punk is absolutely incredible.

I’m ashamed, and embarrassed my country allows this punk to continue rubbing our noses, and the noses of our allies in his stink as though he is some dictator.

There is no way this guy is legitimate. Anybody that has to go to the extent this guy, and his handlers have to cover up his past, NOT even sanitize it, but just cover it up cannot be legitimate.

There’s a crime in progress.

Does anyone know if James Carville or any other Clinton/Obama operatives are in Israel trying to make sure Netanyahu is not re-elected later this month?

Prayers for Netanyahu to be re-elected and to continue tp the best thing for Israel.

Israel needs no advice from the pro-Islam half-rican in the White Mosque.

Obama: No worries. I’ll just send over Rahm Emanuel (speaks Hebrew; Jewish, but we won’t hold that against him; some of my best friends, etc.) and Corporal Q-ball, and they’ll tell Israeli Citizens what to decide.

It’s amazing that Israel hasn’t quietly taken care of this “problem”.
