It isn’t sufficient for Obama to attempt to undermine Netanyahu by funding his opponents. Read this as well.
It isn’t sufficient for Obama to work against Israel in favor of Iran, influenced as he is by his upbringing and education.
Now, Benjamin Netanyahu having reacquired the Prime Minister’s position — not by a thread but quite decisively — Obama has decided it’s time to double-down against Israel and Bibi.
Because Netanyahu played the “no two-state solution” card and ended up winning. However, as the New York Daily News wrote, “reports that he ruled out a two-state solution are pure bunk.” A fabrication by the Obama Administration.
That Netanyahu won rankles Obama to no end. That and the fact that Netanyahu was asked to speak before Congress a few weeks ago regarding Iran. Obama is weak-kneed on Iran and Muslims in general. Upbringing and education.

The White House hoped a new Israeli prime minister would resume peace talks with the Palestinians. With Netanyahu holding on, the administration is weighing a turn to the U.N. to help force a deal.
After years of blocking U.N. efforts to pressure Israelis and Palestinians into accepting a lasting two-state solution, the United States is edging closer toward supporting a U.N. Security Council resolution that would call for the resumption of political talks to conclude a final peace settlement, according to Western diplomats.
The move follows Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s decisive re-election Tuesday after the incumbent publicly abandoned his commitment to negotiate a Palestinian state — the basis of more than 20 years of U.S. diplomatic efforts — and promised to continue the construction of settlements on occupied territory. The development also reflects deepening pessimism over the prospect of U.S.-brokered negotiations delivering peace between Israelis and Palestinians.
Anything to cock-block Netanyahu and favor Iran over Israel.
Upbringing and education.
