Obama: rapprochement with Iran, attacks Israel

The new covenant of the government: rapprochement with Iran, distancing from Israel. The US is cooperating behind the scenes with Iran, reports The Wall Street Journal.

While the US sharply attacked Netanyahu, signs of rapprochement and quiet cooperation between the US and Iran, appear.

Yesterday (Tuesday), the magazine Atlantic quoted sharp words against Netanyahu from senior officials of the White House, and noted that the government will remove the protection from Israel in the United Nations.

"The good thing about Netanyahu, that he is afraid to open wars. The bad thing is that he would do nothing to reach an agreement with the Palestinians or the Arab countries," the official said.

"Netanyahu wants only to maintain his political survival. He is not Rabin, he is not Sharon, he is certainly not Menachem Begin. He has no courage."

Another official said that Netanyahu is a coward and one does not believe his threats regarding an attack on Iran. Netanyahu is an objector, shortsighted, reactionary, blocked, boastful, arrogant and suffers from Asperger".

According to the report in the article, in 2012-2010 the Americans feared that Netanyahu might carry out his threat to bomb Iran, partly because of the fact that the "cowboy defense minister, graduate commando, Ehud Barak" served alongside him. But now, he said, government officials believe that "Bibi is bluffing. He is not Begin."

Americans do not understand the Middle East
In recent weeks, there is a tension between the White House and the Israeli government, in view of the building in Jerusalem, in Har Homa and Ramat Shlomo.

Chairman of the Jewish Home Naftali Bennett responded in Facebook while fearing that, "the current administration intends to throw Israel under the wheels of the bus".

"The prime minister is not an individual, but the leader of the Jewish state and the Jewish world at large. Such serious abuse against the Israeli Prime Minister are harmful to the millions of citizens of Israel and Jews around the world," he wrote.

"Not the leader of Syria who has slaughtered 150,000 of his citizens, and not the leader of Saudi Arabia who stones women and gays, and not the Iranian leader who killed freedom demonstrators, have gained nicknames. Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East, and has struggled for the past 66 years of its existence. Israel is the vanguard of the free world against the Islamic terrorism of ISIS, Hezbollah, Hamas and Iran. Instead of attacking Israel and forcing it into suicide conditions, one should strengthen it. I call upon the US government to renounce the abusive words".

Minister Uri Ariel commented: "The Americans have shown in recent years, ignorance and complete lack of understanding when it comes to the Middle East, as we have seen a series of mistakes in the conduct with Syria, Egypt, Libya and others. They will not achieve anything by insults and slurs at the head of the Israeli government. I hope that whoever is hiding behind the "officials" will connect back to reality as soon as possible."
