thank you Pres. Obama for not bending to Netanyahu

[quinnox]

Netanyahu is a well known right wing nut, and Obama is doing the right thing by taking a hard line against his trying to have the USA put undue pressure by threats on Iran. It is not necessary to always use force of arms as diplomacy.

3. He's trying to inject himself into a Presidential Election

Don't be mistaken. He's basically a Republican from Philly. He knows exactly what he is doing.

[Firebrand Gary]

4. AAA++++

[cali]

5. How hard would it have been to post a couple of paragraphs

of a news article along with your comments?

[quinnox]

8. good idea

[sabrina 1]

6. Good for him. He should know he has the support of the American people on

putting this right wing nut in his place. I would not put it past Netanyahu to try to influence our elections also.

[luvspeas]

7. agree!

The repugs are going to hang on to this one like a pitbull. Stand firm (no offense to pitbulls).

[Dkc05]

9. its time to stand up to our friends in the Middle East

Lets make peace there and move on

[luvspeas]

23. well said...

and there are plenty of Israeli citizens who would agree.

[aquart]

10. Yeah because America-dependent Israel is so powerful.

They don't have land, population, money or oil, but they have SUCH mind power it takes great strength to say no to them.

Bigotry begets boogeymen.

[boppers]

28. Can't tell if sarcasm?

They don't have a lot of land or oil, but for population and money they're light years ahead in the region compared to their neighbors, so uh... what do you mean?

[regnaD kciN]

11. Good for you, Barack!

[ejbr]

12. I guess he is just making it clear,

that the U.S. is no one's bitch.

[SunSeeker]

13. Netanyahu better learn that Obama works for US. nt

[WillyT]

26. You called it post # 17

[Hayabusa]

34. Damn it, I hate

[A Simple Game]

37. Sorry. n/t

[WinkyDink]

17. Excuse me, but was YOUR brother murdered by pro-Palestinian terrorists?

Entebbe.

"Right-wing nut"? How about "man determined to REMEMBER HISTORY and insure Israel's survival"?

[starroute]

21. Or a man determined to forget history and ensure a terrorist revival?

Iranians didn't kill Bibi's brother. Iran was still in the iron grip of the Shah then and the two countries were on warm terms and were considered natural allies.

Nuclear weapons didn't kill Bibi's brother.

Bibi's brother was killed by hijackers from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine. And Bibi gets to exact revenge for that every day of the week.

Using Entebbe as an excuse for invading Iran is like the Bush administration using 9/11 as an excuse for invading Iraq. It does not parse -- and it shows a profound ignorance of history.

Beyond that, if Bibi wants to incite an outbreak of terrorism like nothing seen since the 1970s , he's certainly going about it the right way.

[Agony]

22. Rami Elhanan and his "nutty" group are more likely to ensure Israel's survival than Netanyahu, his

daughter was murdered by pro-Palestinian terrorists and he is not a "right wing" nut.

http://respect-discussion.blogspot.com/2011/08/kelly-james-clark-interviews-rami.html

Netanyahu is a right wing nut and also happens to be wrong and President Obama should tell him so and listen to Rami Elhanan instead.

There is a different path than the right wing one and the world can be a better place if we stand up and make it so.

Peace

[orpupilofnature57]

27. He's repeating history .

[R. Daneel Olivaw]

29. BiBi is a man determined to be an assh@le.

The right wing, regardless of country or religion, is full of assh@les.

[stupidicus]

18. Nettheyahoo is use to getting his way

the rightwingnut responses to this should be "very interesting"

[rury]

19. Good on Barack!!!

One million s!!

[Autumn]

20. That Obama? He's one smart man.

I get giddy when Obama takes a hard line against idiots.

[defacto7]

24. hear, hear!

[SleeplessinSoCal]

25. It's good practice for dealing with Boehner. Plus it's good to have Turkey as an ally in this.

[GEOpix]

30. Sheldon Adelson

is Netanyahu's point man, and he's backing Romney with his million$$$. Netanyahu may be more frustrated with Romney's impotence than Obama's strength. I applaud Obama for standing up to him.

[Barry2012]

31. Hes a war monger

Hes just trying to drag us into another endless war.

[GEOpix]

33. EXACTLY!

[MotherPetrie]

32. Kicking. Now please keep it up!

[Barry2012]

35. Hes a war monger

Hes just trying to drag us into another endless war.

[Submariner]

36. Bibi trying to manipulate media/election for Romney

Israel KNOWS the U.S. has it's back, making this a cheap political ploy.
