Israeli intel warns Netanyahu on Obama policy: 'We have become an
obstacle'
TEL AVIV — A classified assessment relayed to Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu said Obama and his senior advisers would incrementally
diminish U.S. strategic cooperation with Israel developed over the
last 20 years.
"Obama wants to make friends with our worst enemies and until now the
worst enemies of the United States," an Israeli source familiar with
the intelligence assessment said.
"Under this policy, we are more than irrelevant. We have become an
obstacle."
[On April 21, Obama said he would meet Netanyahu in Washington as
part of revived U.S.-led peace efforts in the Middle East, Middle
East Newsline reported. The president said the summit would take
place over the next few weeks.]
