Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave President Obama a major smackdown today in the Oval Office regarding Obama’s arrogant and naive speech yesterday lecturing Israel to return to 1967 borders. IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. Hats off to you, Mr. Netanhayu! Skip the BO-Hole bloviations and scroll forward to 7:15. Bibi doesn’t pull any punches. No return to 1967 borders, no negotiations with a Palestinian government that includes Hamas and no “right of return”…

Watch your back Bibi. As for the muzz, no mercy.

Outstanding! I’m actually surprised that Hatch has the onions to stand up and offer such a resolution, but I’m glad he did. Can’t wait to see the votes on that one.
@ huckfunn:
My other half was wondering if the Ds will absent themselves.

Someone should offer a congressional resolution for just that.
What is sickening is all the local media shills here proclaiming Israel has no choice but to go back to the 1967 borders. BS. These commentators are paid hacks for the OBama hacking philosophy. Talk about your conspiracies.
@ huckfunn:
Permanently.

“No choice”?
No choice or what? Obama will be pissed? The Arabs will hate them?
The Israelis should adopt the Arab negotiating strategy: When the other side rejects your offer, the next offer should be for less, not more.
THIS is what Israel should submit to?

Bibi knows that there is no solution and there can never be piece with the pali deadenders. He just has to put up enough of facade to keep the U.S. somewhat off his back. He shouldn’t give an inch.
Heh. Netanyahu Urges U.S. Return To 1845 Borders.
Reprise: Bibi’s response set to music:
Take Back Your Plan
—apologies to “Take Back Your Mink,” from “Guys and Dolls” by Frank Loesser
We fought for the land more than four decades ago
And gave back some in our long quest for peace
The Sinai, and Gaza, and the Temple Mount
To the Arabs foolishly released
But if you imagine that bought us goodwill
Then you just don’t know the Middle East
And we’re sick and tired of being fleeced
Take back your plan
Your “peace process”
It’s an also-ran
And we are not impressed
Take your “accords”
And your “right of return”
They’re empty words
All of which are rightly spurned
You know we’d like to just live here peacefully
Though our neighbors are Islamists
But the concessions proposed so fatuously
Just subject us to terrorists
So take back your plan
There’s no use being vexed
You know you can’t have a “peace partner”
Who only rejects
Take back your plan
Your “peace process”
It’s an also-ran
And we are not impressed
Take your “accords”
And your “right of return”
They’re empty words
All of which are rightly spurned
You know we’d like to just live here peacefully
Though our neighbors are Islamists
But the concessions proposed so fatuously
Just subject us to terrorists
So take back your plan
With all of its text
And don’t you raise an eyebrow
When the land we’ve annexed
Well, wouldn’t you?
@ huckfunn:
Of course, the problem with that scenario is that Obama would probably actually agree, since Texans won’t vote for him anyway…
Bibi was masterful, statesman like, and presented his case clearly without being insulting. No moats full of alligator type cracks playing to a hand picked crowd sycophants.
If imam obumbler were an adult, not a sociopathic narcissist he might learn from being so clearly outclassed.
@ lobo91:
Well, ya got a point there.
Dang, I just noticed the time. Time to do battle with the sodden swamp that is my yard.

That’s great. Wasn’t Bibi on the Entebbe Raid? I know his brother was killed there.

Thanks for the reminder. Time to go get sodden with the bottle. Cheers.
@ huckfunn:
No, iirc Bibi was in the Yom Kippur war.

I guess I was thinking about the Sabena Flight 571 rescue.
@ huckfunn:
Oh wow, had forgotten about that. Ehud Barak was a much better commando than PM.
Good for Netanyahu!!!!!!!!!!!
@ huckfunn: The bad thing is that Obama is probably ok with giving Texas to Mexico. But not to the Indians. He is that way.
Zogby says American Jews will still vote for Obama. Is that some sick shit or what?
That was a major smackdown today.
Never saw anything like it before.

I hate that nick name “Bibi”, His name is Benjamin.
