Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was warmly greeted when he returned home from Washington on Thursday after standing up to unprecedented pressure and humiliating treatment from the Obama administration.
A Smith Research poll at the beginning of the week showed 9 percent of Jewish Israelis believe the Obama administration is pro-Israel, compared with an 88 percent approval rating under former President George W. Bush.
A headline in the London-based The Times on Thursday read "Binyamin Netanyahu humiliated after Barack Obama 'dumped him for dinner.'"
"For a head of government to visit the White House and not pose for photographers is rare. For a key ally to be left to his own devices while the president withdraws to have dinner in private was, until this week, unheard of," The Times stated.
"Yet that is how Binyamin Netanyahu was treated by President Obama on Tuesday night, according to Israeli reports on a trip viewed in Jerusalem as a humiliation," it read.

I pray nightly for Bibi and Israel.
My heart is happy to read about his warm greeting at home.
We all need to write our representitives and protest this disgraceful treatment of a Friend!!
How do you spell crood?
I hope the large American jewish voting block who always seem to vote Democrat bother to heed this warning.
Perhaps the One can make it up to Bibi by bowing to him.
I wish they would stop writing that Netanyahu was “humiliated.”
Bibi wasn’t humiliated. Obama humiliated himself, just like the folks who put a Crown of Thorns on Jesus’ head to “humiliate” Him.
Tell me please, what mortal crown of what earthly kingdom is more glorious than that “humiliating” Crown of Thorns?
Many "Reform" Jews have a moral relativism and peacenik perspective I have gotten into some heated discussions over supporting Israel. Their thesis is Israel is just as bad, They shouldn't have killed the 100 in the tunnels @ Gaza, that they treat the Palestinians to harsh and it is a pox on Israel's house. You know, hook line and sinker from the pages of the NY-Slimes.
It is very frustrating to get discuss our perspective that they (Palestinians) are not necessarily the good guys, in fact some are evil.
I wish so too.
Obama’s behavior was disgraceful and to say that Bibi was humiliated gives Obama far too much power.
Screw the jews in America the majority of them voted for the Jew Hater ,so screw them ,they might as well have voted for Hitler you stupid morons
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

I am very happy to hear that he was welcomed back warmly. I was afraid that being dumped by Obama would have been seen as an embarrassment to the Israelis & possibly threaten Bibi’s government.
Granted, I am disappointed in Bibi for different reasons, & that is ‘cuz I don’t think he has been TOUGH ENOUGH against the Palestinian terrorists....I would like to see the Israeli army do to the entire West Bank & Gaza Strip what they did the Racxhael Corrie (remember her?). Gentlemen, start your (bulldozer) engines!
Your comment sounds like Obama math to me ... there are far more Catholics in this country than Jews. You need percentages here ... and I can assure you more Jews voted for the 'anointed one' than Catholics in terms of percentages ... far more.
Completely agree. Netanyahu was insulted by a petulant turd, not humiliated.
Hahah! That was what I was hoping!

Adding this to Obama’s Outstanding Record of Dip-lunacy [link list]

You are correct.
Bibi was shown to be a man of character.
The Brown Clown was shown to be a brown clown.
