Hardball..................by Dan Friedman

Many good people in Israel have told me that Obama is holding a gun to Israel’s head. Specifically, BHO is threatening Netanyahu to withhold the resupply of arms and munitions Israel has depleted trying to destroy the demons in Gaza. It’s a tough spot to be in but Israelis need to understand that the last two years of Obama’s presidency will sink or swim on the results of this November’s election, and Americans overwhelmingly are squarely in Israel’s camp.


As usual, daylight is the answer. Israel should counter BHO’s “pressure” by “leaking” details of his threats to Israel. At this late date, there’s no use pretending Obama is not an antagonist. The time to exploit his vulnerabilities is now.
