Israeli Paper Shreds Obama: "He Doesn’t Have The Political Stomach To Grapple With Iran"

Israeli Paper Shreds Obama: "He Doesn’t Have The Political Stomach To Grapple With Iran"

Netanyahu and the boyish Obama
In an incredibly embarrassing move on Obama’s part, anonymous sources (meaning the Obama administration) took a swipe at Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying that his criticism of the nuke deal with Iran was “weak and desperate.” Israel then shot back with it’s own rather terse assessment of how weak and out of touch with real leadership Obama is by saying the US President, “doesn’t have the political stomach to grapple with Iran.”
Just imagine a thuggish community organizer from Chicago in Barack Obama calling a former Israeli Commando “weak and desperate” on the world stage. Obama might as well just challenge Netanyahu to a UFC cage fight. Wouldn’t that be a riot.
It looks more and more like Israel will stand alone against Iran when that eventual day comes that everyone, except Obama, knows is inevitable.
Read more below from the Times of Israel:

[A]fter anonymous US officials were quoted in the Israeli press saying that Netanyahu’s outspoken criticism of the interim deal with Iran was “weak and desperate,” unnamed officials in Jerusalem sniped back, saying Obama only cared about surviving the remaining three years in office.
“President Obama just wants to peacefully pass his remaining time until the end of his term. He doesn’t have the political stomach to grapple with Iran,” Channel 10 quoted “the Israeli leadership” as saying.
“Removal of the sanctions in the Geneva agreement will end the pressure on Iran,” the unnamed sources in Jerusalem said, according to the channel.
According to Ynet News, the officials suggested that American public opinion, weary of conflict after over a decade of military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan, dictates that the administration should focus on domestic and economic issues and put matters of foreign policy on the back burner.
