Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told his Cabinet Sunday that Israel is “calm and self-assured.” He also said Israel’s enemies “have very good reasons not to test our strength.”
Netanyahu appeared to be trying to calm a nation that is on edge as tensions rise between the U.S. and Syria. With the U.S. threatening to strike Syria in response to alleged chemical weapons use, many Israelis fear that Syria might retaliate by attacking across the border at Israel.
Netanyahu made no mention of Obama’s decision over the weekend to seek congressional approval for an attack on Syria. But many media commentators Sunday criticized Obama for being indecisive.
What a weak leader mr obama (if can even call him a leader)
Cant help myself thinking back to president Bush how he put together a ”coalition of the willing” and ignoring the rest of the world the regular spoilers Russia and China and obama cant even hold together our closest allies…. what a shame and bad position we are in
