obama is incapable to think strategically. he fails to understand that by publicly bullying netanyahu he enables and encourages the intrengisence of the arabs and their extremists. obama also fails to understand that his misguided middle east policies, including on iran and his support of the muslim brotherhood have further endangered the jewish state thus making concessions much more difficult. bibi netanyahu will not make concessions that will endanger the jewish state just because obama needs a deal at all costs.

were Livni or Lapid PM with Obama as the US President. Hopefully G-d will continue giving Bibi the power to stand strong against such "friends".

mouse " and tell Obama , as the "first Islamic" President where to go ?

After Obama's US ratings have landed at submarine levels, when nobody in the world takes him serious anymore, when he 'warns Putin not to interfere in Ukraine which kept Putin out of his sleep last night, where Iran & other Arab dictators are laughing in his face.....he counts on his 'friend Bibi to help him out.

the shia terror entity poses israel an existential threat which israel cannot countenance. the arab palestinians are a nuissance which eventually will be solved, but not in the near future. they are being offered a state, as they had been offered a state in the past, but rather than rejoice, they threaten terror as is their custom.

I think Bibi should press obama to make piece with Holland, Mexico and England. He should also get his own economy in order before telling US what to do. obama is an abomination!

Obama has already made a mess of every foreign policy issue that he goes near... How can anybody take this clown's advice? Best thing Bibi can do is stall until he's gone.

How do you like them apples?

Funny, nobody in the United States listens to obama. Nobody in the entire world listens to or respects obama. Israel should listen to obama? obama has been using the Iranian nuclear threat for the last 5 years to force Israel, Netanyahu to agree to the creation of an arab terrorist state aligned with Iran at the gates of Gush Dan and Jerusalem. Netanyahu, has been playing chess with obama on the issue. Agreeing to negotiate with the hope that Abbas and his arab terrorists would ultimately torpedo the talks. Maybe Netanyahu would have been better off, by following the Prime Minister Shamir model and simply saying, NO!

The Basic Framework is Seventy Percent of Judea and Samaria are Arab with the other thirty Percent for Security Armies .There is a land swap of two thousand square Kilometres of Islamic Israel.For this a Huge Security Guarentee for Israel and no Islamic Jihadi or Fatah Ba'ath Greater Syria Ideologues in the area.The Right of return for Arabs is lost for they Stopped right of Escape of Jews from the Holocaust in Nazi occupied Europe and Blocked the Partition Plans before WW2.

Bibi,please stand fast in your ground. Fear God but not men. Read the Bible, you will get courage and wisdom. May God give you that.

It is about time to solve this 47 years old Middle East conflict now and stop listening to foreign lobbyist.

why you don´t press Abbas?

When President Bush Snr. tried to push Yitzvhak Shamir into making concessions he didn't just say no;he told Bush to kiss his arse...but he had the presence of mind to tell him in Yiddish. I sure hope that Mr Netanyahu has Mr Shamir's fortitude,presence of mind....and subtlety when dealing with Obama.If only,if only. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!

They are as rotten by now as you are.

building "settlements" (history repeats itself) , and Shamir would always answer "no", hence he acquired the nickname "Mr. No" in Washington. Finally, Shamir went to Washingtion to meet daddy Bush, and once again he demanded that Shamir stop building "settlements". This time Shamir agreed to stop and while he was in Washington, building began on 5 new "settlements". That little man was a GREAT leader!

It's typical of Palestinians that they reject living next to a Jewish majority Israel yet they whine and complain that there is no peace. Do they and their supporters have a loose screw in their heads or what?

let's see: bibi apologized to erdogan, ceased settlement construction, and has ceased settlement construction again now, released bloody prisoners and will do the following;agree to withdraw from jordan valley in favour of foreign troops after a short time, agree to suburb of e jerusalem as capital of plo state, withdraw from 94% of west bank, and will not do anything about iran. He will make these concessions in return for american money, new arms packages, US guarantees. The real reason bibi will outsource israeli security is because he is gutless, pure and simple , an overhy0ped military figure who is scared stiff like peres, livni and olmert-same story-yellow to th e bone. Begin who was 1/2 the size of bibi and much slighter, had 100X more guts than this weakling. Likud should throw him out at the first chance.

America elected Obama. America must either suffer through Obama's endless failures or get wise and impeach him. Israel has no such obligation. We won't be victims of yet another Obama failure like the stimulus, Obamacare and everything else this horrid president does.

not for anyone else, so talk backers, stop playing the victim card. Bibi should use his 'power' to secure the best deal possible for Israel, so that future generations can live in a peaceful Jewish majority country. I have no time for Obama, but the current situation with Israel and the Palestinians is unsustainable and if it means Israel needs to be bullied in to a deal, so be it. Would be better to be ahead of things and getting the best deal possible rather than moaning about everything and everyone!

You sound like someone on a used car lot, having to make a desperate trade-in. The the salesman comes along and kicks your car, telling you that if you don't do a deal now, I'll use a sledge hammer next! Well, Israel is more than a used car to be subject to any deal is worth none. We have a country that was recently won by war in 1948. Again in 1967, we expanded our territory, and have since resettled it like we did in ancient times. The losers, who actually on the side that caused the war in the first place are using every tactic under the sun to regain what was never really there's in teh first place. Guess what, it won't stop with Judea & Shomron, and no second hand deals will guarantee that it does either. So why do I say we already have a peace deal? It is called the peace 'process' and there are no solutions other than the process itself, to help maintain calm and a fair degree of peace in the process. So your idea of take any deal we can might work for a coward being bullied into buying a car he probably doesn't need, but it has no currency for upright citizens of Isreal who have been through this many times before, including false promises that can never be fulfilled!

It's a wonder that this has to be repeated over and over. Does it not get through peoples' minds that Palestinians reject living next to a Jewish majority Israel? What peace should Netanyahu or any other Israeli leader make?

#23. The status quo is INFINITELY better than a "peace deal with Palestinians". Now Israel has Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, defensible borders, freedom from constant rocket attacks and invasion. Israel would lose EVERYTHING in a "peace deal with Palestinians", who seek to steal our sole Homeland. Nothing would be worse. Your endorsement of "bullying" Israel and Israeli surrender says it all. You are contemptible.

So that we can deal with Obama and his threats as a strong united nation. Don't hide his threats from us. Together, we can deal with ANYTHING Obama may throw at us.

is part of the Jewish DNA and is found in the heart and mind of every Jew on earth. What Obama need do is to finally demand of the Arabs to accept the late Mr. Rabin's Contour-for-Peace, presented to the Knesset on 5 Oct 1995: 1) Jerusalem will remain united and under Israel's sovereignty and will include the suburbs of Giv'at Zeev and Ma'aleh Adumim 2) All Jewish settlement blocs will be incorporated into sovereign Israel, including Gush Qatif in Gaza 3) The Jordan Valley ought to be understood in the widest meaning of the term, and it too will remain part of Israel 4) The future Palestinian Arab state will be fully demilitarized, its airspace totally controlled by Israel, as will its boundaries and all of its border passes: land, sea and air

It's about time Israel stopped listening to foreign lobbyists from Washington telling them how to carve up the little country they have. As Moe ( you wouldn't know who that is) used to say, "you're starting to show signs of a brain!"
