White House: Obama Will Not Meet Netanyahu
Virtual Jerusalem ^ | January 22, 2015 | Staff

Posted on 01/23/2015 9:20:06 PM PST by lbryce

The White House said Thursday evening that President Barack Obama will not meet Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu when the Israeli leader visits Washington in early March.

The decision, said the White House, is in line with US policy not to meet foreign leaders on dates that are close to national elections in their countries.

"The president will not be meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu because of the proximity to the Israeli election," said National Security Council

spokeswoman Bernadette Meehan?

The date for Prime Minister Netanyahu's address to Congress has been pushed back by a fortnight to March 3, House Speaker John Boehner announced Thursday on his Twitter feed.

Bibi advised the White House that his busy schedule precluded another worthless time consuming meeting with Barack Obama

I have come to the inevitable conclusion that the President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, is an anti-semite.

To which the Israeli PM was heard to mutter, “Thank God I don't have to endure the Muslim Brotherhood stooge this time.”

Notice how the petulant White House keeps releasing and re-releasing this story?

A good analogy is a elementary public school girl from a rich family, who is arrogant, snooty and abusive to the other children, so she has no friends.

The rich girl’s parents expect that all their daughter’s “friends” will want to come to her party for the cake and ice cream and the clown (Joe Biden) they have hired to entertain.

But when no other children show up, the poor little rich girl throws a tantrum.

Fox Business mentioned that Val was born in Iran. Don’t know if that means anything, just doesn’t seem right.

He's desperate for a win

Sadly and dangerously, a win for Obama is a win for Iran and a loss for the United States and National Security.

Time to consider if he is much more than Muslim sympathizer. .

Every appeasement, concession, surrender ( because what we did in Iraq & Afghanistan was for all practical purposes was surrender), dismissal of a major threat (i.e. ISIS is JV) has done one thing: strengthened Iran.

He silent during the uprisings in Iran years ago. Not one word of support. Contrast that with the cheer leading for the Arab Spring.

Countries which had been contained (Libya) and heads of states semi friendly to us (Egypt and Yemen) have been in turmoil.

He has vowed to veto new sanctions against Iran in spite of the fact that Iran is going full steam ahead with its nuclear program and Russia will be developing a missile defense system for Iran.

Not to mention the way he has turned his back on Israel.

ALL of his actions since the day he took office in 2009 have contributed to one result--strengthening the power and influence Iran has in the Middle East.

1. Is he as committed to the Iranian state as he appears? Includes, but not limited to
-a nuclear program
-being the most powerful state in the Middle East

2. Has he been using Islamic terrorism as a tool to further the success of the Iranian government? He is a master of manipulation and diversion. He has used race and "social injustice" as a diversion to advance his own agenda? It is not beyond the realm of comprehension to imagine in him keeping us so focused on the Islamic threat that we miss his true goal? He is after all a Community Organizer. That is what they do & how they do it.

3. Besides VJ, what ties does he have with Iranian leaders?

4. What is the history of those ties?

Bottom line- we will never have the answers unless we ask the questions.

“President Irrelevant?”

Apparently, Boner is sending that message...

Doubt if it will be heard, however.

Good, then Bibi won’t have to worry about being escorted out through the WH back door past the dumpster etc. upon leaving. Still remember those pics.
