Obama has shut down communications with Israel
Unlike the Bush administration,the staff of President Obama is not coordinating its policy on Iran or the greater Middle East with Israel and has not been informing the Jewish state of its plans or recent diplomatic developments in the Mideast,according to sources in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office.
The silence extends to U.S. talks with the Palestinians,the sources said. “Our intention and our hope as we go to Washington is to establish close intimate cooperative relationships on these sensitive matters,”a top Netanyahu official told WND yesterday.
The official was speaking about Netanyahu’s May 18 visit to the White House. According to other sources in the prime minister’s office,Israel has been obtaining the vast majority of its information regarding U.S. plans and advances for the Middle East from third parties,mostly European diplomats.
