US President Barack Obama has demanded a timetable for an Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and wants to see a detailed plan from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his upcoming visit to Israel, The American people demand a budget from him, he hasn't produced one in 4 years.

Why should Israel give up the West Bank after the Gaza fiasco, Israel returned Gaza to the Palestinians and instead of farming and living on the land in peace they planted rocket launchers used to attack Israeli citizens in their homes. If the West Bank is returned the same thing will happen, then what will Obama do...he will do nothing but demand that Israel do nothing to hurt the Palestinians and he will demand the return of Jerusalem too. mr Obama why don't you return parts of the United States to the American Indians, and the Mexicans from which your predecessors stole the land from!

Is he kidding? Well, Israel may just ask for an American timetable to withdraw from Sioux lands .... Cherokee lands .... Algonquin lands .... Mohawk lands .... Chippewa lands .... Crow lands .... Seneca lands .... Apache lands .... Hopi lands .... Pima lands .... Ute lands .... Oh, you get the point. Obama can stuff his "demand" where it belongs.

to Mexico...nah who are we kidding ? It was ours . They took it. They ATTACKED US! We took it back. It's ours again. Deal with it!

like the US economy and other domestic issues. In other words he can take such arrogance and nerve and keep it to himself...8 miles wide is suicide

You were warned and your only to blame, no entrance to the holy land when you need to run away.

is that Israel must commit suicide, and if she doesn't, he will kill her.

obama's attempt to impose an american settlement on a sovereign state, will be the biggest blunder of his time in office. any settlement imposed on the jewish state from the outside will lead to total failure, including endless bloody wars and total decline of us influence on israel. contrary to what obama seems to think, israel is not a vassal state, and if need be, she can survive without us help for the foreseeable future. since the relationship between israel and the united states is strategic, a rupture in the relationship would adversely affect israel-us military and intelligence relationships. this might not bother obama, who hardly cares about american national security interests, but it would eventually undermine him personally.

''the implication is that if Israel won't give him something he can work with, then he will act on his own'' huge words for such a wimp. Obama cannot do a thing except try to stop the yearly aid money. Israel is not for sale, we will not be bought. We have enough Jewish brain power etc to manage without, thank you very much. Am Israel Chai.

The Middle East is undergoing meltdown and it seems that Iran will soon get nukes. Obama has only a narrow window of opportunity to destroy Israel before reality will prevent it.

well it is about time that the s**t hit the fan! Obama ego will be between a rock and a hard place!

He can't run his own country(he doesn't know what to do}, he's a liar, back stabber, will throw you under the bus. He's not qualified to run anything much less tell Israel what it should do. If you depend on this JACKASS, then you get what you ask for.

Are they seriously giving Netanyahu tests? And that should he fail them it could damage the peace plan and cause years' worth of setback if he doesn't get this right? This is ridiculous, it's not as though we have a limited amount of time. Let Netanyahu get his government together first.

Netanyahu knows that such a withdrawal will make Israel undefensible. Will he be strong enough to protect Israel's existence against Obama's demands?

No final agreement so far possible and if Nobama does not like it he may as well stay off Israel and save the costs!

Speculation based on unnamed Israeli sources. Obama has not announced any of the policies speculated upon above.

will he now withdraw support for israel because the terrorists fighting assad in syria, whom are now US supported, are demanding it? BO's re-election proved that american democracy has failed..

israel is a Dmocratic Country - the Israeli People speak to elect its leaders - Mr. Obama you can not change Israel politics - it is the Israeli People who do that through the balot box

The left is working overtime to force their agenda on the majority of Israel. They are traitors since everything they have done in the past has only caused great tragedy to the Jewish (and Arab) people.

Don't blame all of us. There are those who have always known who Obama-Hamam is--not many others will listen. He's moving fast and closing in, not only on us but on anyone who opposes him.

first hell has to freeze over before that can happen.

be patient, he will. Obama does'nt have a clue who he will be dealing with when Airforce One touches down at BG Airport. Is Michelle coming with? what about their kiddies? how many US security officers will there be? Pure joy!

I wonder what Mossad has in mind

he's got another think coming.

is already waiting for Bibi s "friend"

I did not vote for Obama in 2008. I did not vote for Obama in 2010. I warned American Jews not to vote for him. Try posting on The Jewish Daily Forward by way of example.

Obama wants to see... and Netanyaou wants to see his plans for Iran nuclear bomb. Did Obama sees islamic plans of palestinians friends ?

Obama has no clue who he's dealing with, and I'm not referring to a mortal being. It would be a shame if his world came crashing down. The sad part is that the U.S. would crash with him (not that it isn't already).

pointless to comment...??
