    Obama cowardly decides to just not meet with Israel instead of making tough decisions. What a shocker. :rolleyes: He's been an indecisive leader for quite some time now.

    How any American Jew would vote for Obama simply blows my mind.

    WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making it clear that Israel will not wait to take out Iranian nuclear facilities.

    In heated comments toward the United States, the Israeli prime minister said that it’s becoming clear that diplomacy will not work with Iran.

    “The world tells Israel, `Wait. There’s still time,’” Netanyahu said Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. “And I say: `Wait for what? Wait until when?’ Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran don’t have a moral right to place a red light before Israel.”

    The Obama administration has consistently stated that they don’t want to go the military route against Iran and give more time for the sanctions to force Tehran to give up its nuclear ambitions.

    Netanyahu worries Iran will continue developing nuclear technology without giving the Islamic nation a firm timeline to stop.

    “If Iran knows that there is no deadline, what will it do? Exactly what it’s doing. It’s continuing, without any interference, towards obtaining nuclear weapons capability and from there, nuclear bombs,” he said, according to Haaertz.

    Defense Minister Ehud Barak tried to downplay the harsh rhetoric, saying in a statement to Haaertz that the tension between the U.S. and Israel should be ironed out “behind closed doors.”

    The Israeli paper also reports that the White House denied Netanyahu’s request to visit President Obama at the end of this month.

    What does he want now? Didn't Obama just give him Jerusalem to be used as their capital?

    wow, not one source sited in that article.

    From the White House:

    President Obama spoke with Prime Minister Netanyahu for an hour tonight as a part of their ongoing consultations. The two leaders discussed the threat posed by Iran’s nuclear program, and our close cooperation on Iran and other security issues. President Obama and Prime Minister Netanyahu reaffirmed that they are united in their determination to prevent Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, and agreed to continue their close consultations going forward. Contrary to reports in the press, there was never a request for Prime Minister Netanyahu to meet with President Obama in Washington, nor was a request for a meeting ever denied.

    Waiting for a source that verifies Netanyahu was snubbed. And even if it did happen, I'm not really concerned. Netanyahu is a real low life sleaze who seems to be an opponent to peace and justice.
