Holding his breath until his face turns blue and stamping his feet like a spoiled little child, Obama whines about Netanyahu saying Obama gave freebies to Iran, which is putting it mildly. Obama's weakness is seen worldwide, not just here at home or with our ally, Israel.
From the article:
Israeli News-Exposing a rift with Israel, President Obama on Sunday insisted that the U.S. had not "given anything away" in new talks with Iran as he defended his continued push for a diplomatic resolution to the dispute over Tehran's nuclear ambitions.
Obama said he refused to let the talks turn into a "stalling process," but believed there was still a window for diplomacy. Earlier Sunday, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu publicly disagreed with at least part of that strategy, saying the U.S. and world powers gave Tehran a "freebie" by agreeing to hold more talks next month.
"So far at least we haven't given away anything, other than the opportunity for us to negotiate and see if Iran comes to the table in good faith," Obama said during a news conference Sunday in Colombia, as he closed a diplomatic mission to Latin America. But Obama warned, "The clock's ticking."

It is difficult for me to understand why you pay attention to what the media tells you the experts are saying. Don't believe everything you read. Talk to people who live there in Israel. They know.
Yes, there are those on the left who disagree with Netanyahu, just as 71% of Americans think our country's headed in the wrong direction.
It's not just not having knowledge of the region that Obama lacks. Read his book. He believes what the PA believes that Israel should give up the land they won when they were attacked, time and time again.
Read his book and you'll see where his vews come from. Don't just go with what Obama says. The tool Obama's used on Iran, his kiss-arse diplomacy didn't exactly work, did it?
That's because he's a dope.
Do you still believe in the U.N. really????
It is the people who are in charge in Iran that you worry about!!
Do you really think it is right for a nation to want to annihilate another nation? Because that is what those nations like Iran want to do to Israel and if you are American they hate you, too!
I think that the same thing was happening during WWII, that Americans weren't aware of what was going on, just to keep us from stopping millions of people being murdered by another nutjob, Hitler.
It's so funny that the very same people who will moan about the GOP's war on the poor, on woman, on everyone, yet when it comes to tiny Israel, free Israel, those same people side with radicals and cry about us giving money to them.
They don't know, I guess, that we also give money to countries with terrorists who want to kill us AND Israel.
Common sense tells us that we should be on the side of good, not evil. Radical extremists are evil.
Israel has used white phosphorous weapons on civilians. Israeli-goverment-ordered mis-behaviors are well documented.
It is similar to the situation in the U.S., and contrary to your assertions, people in Iran do understand that corrupt U.S. government actions harm U.S. people as well as harming people off-shore of the U.S.
I know people who came here from Iran and who still have people there. You are not authorized to speak for the Iranian people.
I've heard the story already about the US being "Big Satan" and Israel being "Little Satan".
And anti-Semiitsm is still alive and well, so I've heard that for decades as well.
I have friends in Israel. They're surrounded by hostile, islamic extremists whose only purpose in life is to "kill all the Jews".
If you lived in a tiny country the size of NJ surrounded by people who want to kill you, you'd want to have nukes too.
Obama thinks Netanyahu is as dumb as his faithful fanbase...Think again, you big dope!
I am not asking you to trust me, but to trust eye witnesses from North Africa.
Since the post starts with name-calling, I am aware that name-calling is the language of the posting.
Nonetheless, there are primary sources, eye-witness accounts, readily available, many of them from third parties, with an interest in finding peace and conflict-resolution for the planet.
What militates against peace are the fortunes to be made from coercion, for particular parts of societies, but not for the people in general.
I do sort of get that you only want to kvetch with people who already agree with you, or to put down people who do not agree.
Nonetheless, this is a public forum, and the group you posted to may not all think in lock-step. I am not harmed when you put me down.

The Israelis now say this was a mistake.
The mistake almost caused a nuclear drop by the U.S. on Egypt. The planes originally ordered to do that were recalled when it became clear that Israel had attacked the ship and not Egypt or Russia.
Lyndon Johnson ordered the men who lost ship-mates not to speak of this. At the end of his life, the captain no longer kept silence.
As more details come out about the will for perpetual war of certain economic classes, it seems unlikely this long-suppressed history will stay hidden.
Get out of the 60's, Mary, and fast forward to today where we have radical extremists who give speeches every day saying they want to kill all the jews and scream "death to the west".
No, Mary, you don't understand the meaning of the title.
Obama thought because he could fool so many people, and apparently still can, that he could fool Netanyahu as well. I think by now even Obama knows that he can't. Netanyahu is not stupid like those people who still believe he's doing a good job, running the country.
THAT'S the meaning of the title.
Is that simple enough for you?
