Report: Kerry-Netanyahu Call Abruptly Terminated

The nerve of Netanyahu treating a war hero like that...


Expect more of this level of respect being directed at John Kerry and his President.

That Obama...he's sure elevated the world's opinion of the USA from what it was under GWB.

Damnnnnnnnnnn Kerry got swiftboated again!

Hopefully there won't be a "next time," but if there is, I hope we lob a cruise missile right into the middle of the crowd.

.....I wouldn't talk to nor would I take a call from any clown that has ANYTHING to do with the Odumber administration.

I'm the kind of a-hole who'd put him on speaker phone and make fun of him to the people in the room, a la Cabin In The Woods.

Yep. It'll change when the Tigers hit the field.

You mean the opinion that we were a bunch of war mongering cowboy yahoos? Yeah, the world had a great opinion of Bush.

I'm certain Kerry was told to eat a bowl of dicks, then got mad and took his ball home by disconnecting the call. Next, he most likely demanded another jawline or two from his private plastic surgeons while he picked up his secure phone to tell the absent suit POTUS that he was made fun of and needed help in dealing with America's closest ally.

Forward, I tell you. Let's transform the greatest nation in the world.

Weren't Israelis celebrating, too?

trackfan said they were celebrating with a blood orgy on 9/11.

Obama isn't the first President that Israel has disrespected, they've done it to Republicans and Democrats alike. However, he's the first President to let them get away with this crap, and for that he deserves scorn. Here's a refresher on how W handled the Israelis when Ariel Sharon was insubordinate in 2001:

quote:

American relations with Israel plunged to their lowest point in a decade yesterday when the White House denounced as "unacceptable" statements by the Israeli prime minister comparing the US coalition-building in the Arab world to British appeasement of the Nazis in the 1930s. The Bush administration was reported to be furious with Mr Sharon's actions, and the White House spokesman, Ari Fleischer, told journalists that the president felt personally affronted by the comparison to Neville Chamberlain and the discredited policies of appeasement in the run up to the second world war. Mr Bush is an avid admirer of Winston Churchill.

In an extraordinary speech, the Israeli prime minister had poured scorn on the campaign aimed at building an Arab consensus behind the campaign against terrorism.

Mr Sharon said: "Don't repeat the terrible mistake of 1938 when the enlightened democracies of Europe decided to sacrifice Czechoslovakia for a temporary solution. Do not try to placate the Arabs at our expense... Israel will not be Czechoslovakia."

In a blunt response, Mr Fleischer said: "The president believes that these remarks are unacceptable. Israel could have no better or stronger friend that the United States and no better friend that President Bush."

In an unusual move, the angry message was relayed to Israel through three parallel channels: in a personal phone call from the secretary of state, Colin Powell; in a message conveyed by the US embassy in Israel; and a separate message passed on by the national security council.

Ariel Sharon further signalled his contempt yesterday for the US diplomatic strategy of mending fences with the Arab world, by launching the heaviest Israeli military offensive since the start of the Palestinian uprising last year.

In a pre-dawn assault, Israeli tanks and armoured bulldozers, helicopters, paratroopers, and ground forces seized the strategic rise of Abu Sneineh in Hebron, West Bank. The city was awarded to Palestinian control under US-sponsored peace accords in 1997.

Five Palestinians were killed in the offensive - including two blown to pieces by tank shells - and dozens injured

US-Israeli relations were notably rocky during the leadership of Mr Sharon's predecessor, Binyamin Netanyahu, who chafed against the constraints President Bill Clinton attempted to place on Israeli military actions.

But the last time the relationship was so overtly hostile was when Mr Bush's father took on Yitzhak Shamir 10 years ago, making vital loan guarantees conditional on an end to the building of settlements in occupied territory.

Mr Sharon's accusations of treachery against Washington also drew criticism in Israel.

"This was an unfortunate statement, historically mistaken, politically damaging, factually incorrect, and it deepens the sense of threat and strangulation that Israelis feel," said a commentary in Yedioth Ahronoth, the country's largest newspaper.

"It weakens us and insults our friends."
