Even though this could be considered a good sign, it is highly doubtful that this represents any major American policy shift. Barry is probably just butt hurt at being called names during the phone call with the Israelis which resulted in this move to nix an arms shipment to Israel. Historically he has not gotten along very well with the evil Jew Benjamin Netanyahu, which is another possible factor in why this happened.
This is probably one of the few cases where Obama’s narcissism is actually a good thing as it is clearly disrupting American relations with the evil Israeli Jews. Let’s hope it continues.
The less arms sent from America to these evil Jews the better.
A senior Israeli official confirmed to Israeli media that the US had suspended a shipment of Hellfire missiles to Israel amid worsening ties over fighting in Gaza.
The decision to hold off on the transfer was most likely on grounds of increased diplomatic tension, the official said, corroborating a Wall Street Journal report earlier in the day that claimed the White House and State Department had been angered by a transfer of arms to Israel and had ordered greater oversight into future sales.
The report claimed that US-Israeli tensions are at a record high, with US President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said to hold a “particularly combative phone call on Wednesday” and officials on both sides resorting to name-calling.
The accounts sparked an internal debate between Israeli politicians.
An unnamed Israeli official lambasted the prime minister’s conduct and had fierce criticism for Israeli ambassador to the US Ron Dermer as well, the Ynet news website reported.
“We all remember how they went behind the back of President Barack Obama to support the [other] candidates in the middle of the [US] elections,” he said. “Netanyahu is responsible for the situation.”
Netanyahu made his preference for Obama’s rival, Republican Mitt Romney, plain during the 2012 US presidential campaign.
Reports of fraying relations with Washington were worrying, Finance Minister Yair Lapid, a security cabinet member, said. “This is a worrying trend and we cannot allow it to continue. Our relations with the United States are a strategic asset that must be maintained.”
He added that he spoke with US Secretary of State John Kerry and Senate majority leader Harry Reid last week to thank them “for the emergency funds which they transferred to Israel” for the Iron Dome missile defense system. “Sometimes we just need to say thank you and ensure that our important relations with the United States remain strong,” Lapid asserted.
