U.S. President Barack Obama will host a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington on March 5, the White House said on Monday, a session that will likely center on the West's efforts to thwart Iran's nuclear ambitions.

A White House statement rounding up the recent Israel visit by Obama's National Security Advisor Tom Donilon, which announced the date for the upcoming meeting, indicated that the top advisor discussed the "full range of security issues of mutual concern" during his meetings with Israeli leadership.

In an interview broadcast on CNN, [U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Martin] Dempsey said Israel has the capability to strike Iran and delay the Iranians "probably for a couple of years. But some of the targets are probably beyond their reach."

Don't bet on it. They've been keenly aware of this threat for a long time and would take extaordinary measures to stop Iran.

Best thing for Netanyahu to do during this meeting is say nothing, nod a lot, go home, then take care of business on his timeline.

Will Obama have him leave by the trash cans again, oh no wait, this is an election year...

It’s all good he’s stabbed Israel in the back repeatedly, he’s counting on the citizenry to forget that.

The outcome ranges the scale from Obama threatening Israel from attacking Iran to getting Bibi to agree to a November surprise attack just before the election.

Will Netanyahu get dinner out of Obama this time, or will Obama just tell him to hit the vending machines?

Bibi ought to tell Obama in this meeting he appreciates all the grass roots support Israel has gotten from Free Republic, Evangelical Christians, and the Bitter Clingers of America.

Then Bibi should get up, walk out the door, and while in the driveway of the White House grab his cell phone, make the call right then and there, and tell his military to eliminate the Iranian targets. With Extreme Prejudice.

I would hope and do believe Netanyahu will not disclose important/vital information to Obama. I believe Obama is a virtual pipeline of info to Iran and Muslim powers for and against the benefit of the USA and Israel.

Unfortunately, Israel will be hurt badly, too. I think there are about 100,000 rockets aimed at Israel. This is very serious and we can’t take any of it lightly.

God is going to demonstrate His Power and Glory by stirring up the peoples around Israel to attack her, only so He can miraculously deliver her. The centerpiece of God's love and concern for Israel is Jerusalem.

"Behold, I will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling unto all the people round about, when they shall be in the siege both against Judah and against Jerusalem. And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it." (Zechariah 12:2-3)

I understand and agree. The USA is likely to be hurt a lot more than Israel. If 0bama is re-elected, we’re done for. God will then let us fend for ourselves because we as a nation will have chosen an utterly demonic man.
