“We thought we’ve seen everything,” a senior American official said. “But Bibi managed to surprise even us. There are things you simply don’t do. He spat in our face publicly and that’s no way to behave. Netanyahu ought to remember that President Obama has a year and a half left to his presidency, and that there will be a price.”
As Hot Air’s Noah Rothman puts it:
Speaking to the center-left Israeli newspaper, one unnamed source said that congressional Republicans’ decision to invite Netanyahu to speak before an upcoming joint session was an affront to the dignity of the administration.
Yes, it’s simply awful that the “dignity of the administration” was insulted on the day the president of the United States conducted an interview with a woman famous for eating Froot Loops* in a bathtub on YouTube.
