Obama will meet without conditions crackpot dictator and US enemy but sets conditions for Netanyahua.
Showing New Discomfort, White House Seeks Conditions to Meet
By CHARLES LEVINSON and JAY SOLOMON
The White House waited several days to confirm that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could meet with President Barack Obama Monday, and sought conditions first -- underscoring the new depths of difficulty that Middle East peace efforts have reached in the last week.
U.S. officials said the delay, which stretched until late Sunday, stemmed from last-minute discussions aimed at gaining a more robust and public commitment to the peace track from Mr. Netanyahu. One official said the U.S. wanted Mr. Netanyahu to express stronger support for negotiations on an independent Palestinian state at his speech Monday before the Jewish Federations of North America in Washington. "We're in the part of the process where you can't expect something for nothing," the official said."
OK Obama-exactly with whom is Natanyahu supposed to talk negogiate? Hamas which pledges to destroy Israel, or Abbas, who does not want the job and doesn't even control downtown Ramallah? All Obama's Sec of State does is demand Jews not live in certain areas Jews have always lived. It is a blame Israel first administration. No wonder Obama has 4% approval in Israel. 96% of Israeli's aren't stupid. Does anyone not see that?
