Benjamin Netanyahu takes another swipe at the White House

[n2doc]

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu took another shot at the White House Thursday, sharply escalating his dispute with the Obama administration over its dealings with Iran.

In comments reported by the Associated Press, Netanyahu claimed to know the details of the nuclear deal being negotiated between the two countries — despite a recent spate of reports claiming that the Obama administration has begun withholding information for fear of Israeli leaks.

“We know that Tehran knows the details of the talks. Now I tell you that Israel also knows the details of the proposed agreement,” the prime minister said. “I think this is a bad agreement that is dangerous for the state of Israel, and not just for it.”

He added, “If anyone thinks otherwise, what is there to hide here?”

Netanyahu’s claims come a day after spokespeople for the State Department and the White House told reporters — in unusually blunt language — that the Obama administration will not be sharing some details about the negotiations with Israel.

I can't wait for smart Israelis to vote this
self-absorbed take-out-eating congress-meddling
clown out of office

2. slow learner

Guess his U.S. donors are still shoveling out the money. He sure is not learning anything from the rest of us!

3. I think it's easy to figure out...

He has supporters who have money and those with money are the ones who usually call for wars. Those who usually call for wars are the ones who benefit by them, which would be those with lots of funds... some of which they are willing to part with in order to usurp the will of the greater populations of the moneyed nations so they can control the government with the biggest guns to fight these wars by purchasing those who sit in the highest offices of the government.

There is a vested interest in keeping the status quo in Israel because it keeps the mic in the game.

6. Absolutely correct. And I would hazzard a guess that they are not American Jews. There is a reason

that rwers who are also fundamentalist Christians (Dominists) want him reelected. He thinks all answers involve war. The fundies think he is going to bring about their end times. I have some friends who are fundies and they send money to Israel all the time.

7. Indeed, it's quite a racket

they have worked out there. I, personally, am rather burned out on this game for the century, it has shown it's expiration date which has already passed. I'm ready for some other way to exist that is beneficial to life in general and I am more than willing to exchange many so called conveniences - not rights - to get there.

4. The asswipe should be denied entry into USA for his speech

The grounds should be the same that was used to deny WH audience.
