I hate to see Netanyahu give in to Obama's demands, but I guess Israel is in a perilous situation without US support, which Obama is not giving them.

"Jewish settlement issue" is NOT what caused a "crisis", it's Obama using it as an excuse to browbeat Israel is what caused a crisis.

When the Iranian government was murdering their innocent citizens, Obama didn't want to "meddle", but when Israelis build houses, he feels obligated to intervene...

Really, really good points. But Netanyahu is one canny guy. I doubt he will capitulate.

Just like with all Liberals, everything is about what you ‘say’. Not what you actually do.

Bibi is a good guy. He will do what he has to do and say what he has to say, but he will never compromise one inch of Israel.

But it looks as though Israel will be in a worse situation if it follows the regime’s demands. I’ll have to wait and see on this. If I’m not mistaken, VOA is our equivalent to Radio Havana. News like this is suspect.

Here’s a strategy for the summit. Have a state dinner with Obama in which you ask for many many bean burritos. Then get him into an enclosed room, such as the Oval Office, and fart until he flees. Then go visit India and China.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his upcoming White House meeting will focus on advancing peace talks with the Palestinians.

For the betterment of all, I hope he will focus on his idea's on economic growth and slam Obama for his idea's.

We need all the help we can get.

I wish Bibi would wait until after our mid-terms.

After two months of indirect talks mediated by the United States, Mr. Netanyahu told Israel's Cabinet it is time to begin face-to-face negations.
The terrorist Arabs and Muzzies have been trying to carry out negations for decades. ;')

This is easy (and essential) for Bibi to say right now. The PA has no intention of negotiating while Obama continues to exact unilateral concessions from Israel. Obama has made it much harder to get things started. Israel has got to show they are all for negotiations and conflict resolution and ready at any time to roll up their sleeves and get to it around the negotiation table. As long O keeps painting them as the beligerents and demanding “good faith” concessions, Bibi has to show that he is actually the one who is eager to work out a solution if only the other side would show up. I’ve noticed Bibi has picked up one of Obama’s tactics. He says one thing to Obama and the media then goes ahead and actually does whatever he wants to do at home. Fire with fire.

I hope Bibi brings a nice picnic lunch and brings it out and starts to snack on it in front of Dear Leader during the middle of a meeting..slurp a cool long drink of nice Israeli wine..Or better yet..tell DL in the middle of the meeting he has to run an errand and will be back after HIS lunch. Then walk out.

Talk is cheap. The leftists and dear leader himself become more impotent and their days in office count down...

I think we see passive resistance on that which matters not much...

My faith in Bibi survives this news lead. I’ll believe Bibi caves when Bibi caves, and not a minute sooner.

Sure, zero will get all he wants from Israel, when everyone agrees to rebuild the Temple. Until then, nothing, after that, head for the hills.
