Netanyahu Warns Obama on Talks as He Challenges Livni

[Purveyor]

Feb. 9 (Bloomberg) -- Even before Benjamin Netanyahu finds out whether he will be Israel’s next prime minister, he is sending a message to President Barack Obama that he won’t be pushed around.

Netanyahu, the Likud party candidate who narrowly leads Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni ahead of elections tomorrow, last week took reporters to Arab parts of Jerusalem, where he helped establish Jewish footholds when he was previously prime minister. No pressure, he said, would make him cede those neighborhoods “to our enemies.”

Just as he confounded former President Bill Clinton in the 1990s, Netanyahu probably will resist if Obama pushes too hard to extract Israeli concessions for peace in the Middle East.

“He’s extremely effective politically, unbelievably smart and relentlessly suspicious when it comes to the Arabs and the Americans,” says former U.S. negotiator Aaron David Miller, author of “The Much Too Promised Land: America’s Elusive Search for Arab-Israeli Peace.”

8. Fucking Bushies, be they American or Israeli, are good at ONLY murder and intimidation.

I'd expect no less from Netanyahu, especially after the Israeli Bushies got away with "Kennedying" Yitzhak Rabin back in the 90s.

Oh those "crazy right wing lone gunman", always popping up like MAGIC to murder Great Liberal Leaders who Threaten the American and Israeli Bushies' Program of Endless Warfare and Brutalization, not only in the physical world, but Full Spectrum Dominance control of Reality as the Bushies now have.

Anyway, of course ol' Bushie Benny issued a warning to Obama. It's what thugs and bullies and mafiosi murderers do best.

And I am so ashamed and sorry to say that we Jews are capable as being just as evil as anyone else. Thousands of years of suffering and oppression meant NOTHING, if Murderin' Bushie Benny Netanyahu and his bunch murdered Rabin for the same reason the Bushies killed the Kennedys and MLK, and now issues the usual Bushie veiled Mafiosi-style threats.

I wish the actual Israelis could get control of their nation from the Bushies, but their JFK is dead with a bullet in the head, and the rest could never hope to match him.

And I am willing to bet that, using the same methodologies, actual Israelis have as little say in their Bushie Government as Americans do.

Both ruled by Bushie Soft Power, through corrupt intelligence services, whether the Bushies are in power or not.

I hope Obama can stop the American Bushies and restore our nation to the people, though it seems less likely after that Bushiganda "Stimulus Debate" on Cable TV Infoganda.

And you Israelis, poor Israeli citizens, still so gullible as to who owns and rules you - the same vile Bushies who own and rule us, Christian and Jewish Fundamentalists and teamed with Corporatists combined that, even as late as the 1990s, your Bushies killed your JFK the same way they killed ours, pinned it on a patsy (or a CIA/Mossad type joyous to take the fall and give their life to "get that Strong Liberal Leader DEAD"), and as usual -yawn- not only got away scot free, but the people doing the investigating, the ones in charge, anyway, were probably the ones who ordered the murder.

Neat setup the Bushies have, isn't it?

It's far too late and far too obvious for me to play around with being politically correct about this. We have a choice, both Americans and Israelis. We can keep denying what is happening to our respective nations, as the Germans did in the late 20s and '30s.

Or we can try and stop it now, using the power of the political system, before things gets beyond even that, to restore popular rule and DeBushify our Virtually Enslaved Countries.

Funny thing, Obama got elected, and much of the Bushie Power looks like it is going to continue pretty much ruling as they did, and it matters little who the "elected" officials are.

Otherwise, we are going to find out what the Bushies have in mind for The Final Solution to the Liberal and Palestinian Problem.

HINT: It will NOT repeat NOT look anything like Nazi Germany tactics for it's Final Solution to the Liberal and Jew Problem. That would just be plain out stupid marketing and re-branding strategy.

9. Israel has never been America's friend!

And frankly, we can't afford Israel insatiable appetite for additional Arab lands.

10. Netanyahu is just as vicious as Cheney/Bush . . . however . . .

we're paying for Israel's war and we're providing the weapons ---

and I hope that Obama reminds him of that!

Israeli warmongering and wars have to be stopped!!!
