Obama did not invent a new American policy. The United States has long held that the settlements are illegal; the same is true for the status of East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. The Americans are sticking to the same road map drawn up seven years ago, it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

Netanyahu appears to be suffering from confusion and paranoia. He is convinced that the media are after him, that his aides are leaking information against him and that the American administration wants him out of office. Two months after his visit to Washington, he is still finding it difficult to communication [...]]]></description>

The Obama haters film caused quite a stir, with Blumenthal receiving death threats and the usual accusations of being a self-hating Jew. Here is what Blumenthal himself has to say about why he made the film:

		<description><![CDATA[A review of the current political situation in Israel. It&#8217;s quite amusing and predictable. It amazes me that Bibi got re-elected in the first place. What were they thinking? Did anyone really believe he had &#8220;improved&#8221; somehow?
It is hard not to be amazed by the speed with which Netanyahu&#8217;s second term has become a kind [...]]]></description>

&#8220;Obama&#8217;s people brief their Israeli counterparts in advance much less about security and Middle East policy activities than the Bush administration used to,&#8221; the officials said.  In addition, when they do brief Israeli officials, they don&#8217;t consult with them or coordinate [...]]]></description>

I often cite the fact that at one time meeting with anyone from the PLO was a crime, and Abie Nathan sat in jail for that crime.
