I wonder how much of Oren's "candor" is policy in a party dress? How likely is it that he would endanger his own relations with Jerusalem? As for Barry he was never trustworthy by anyone except the Pollyannas who want to believe black is always good. And the thief and liar who is likely to replace him in the White House could very well be worse. Y'all becoming more self-sufficient in munitions would be the best idea, and cultivating the Saudis, Eqyptians and Jordanians.

Well, Oren is not in Likud these days, so he can hardly benefit from criticizing Obama (but he does says a few things about Bibi indeed, and as far as I can see they are true too).

I see (in Haaretz) how Bibi is refusing to apologize for Oren's remarks, even to his ambassadorial successor who felt blindsided. About time someone stood up to Our Little Barry, though, our adolescent, affirmative-action president, aka the Great Divider.

The mere idea that Bibi should refer to an article written in a (free) press by somebody else is somewhat absurd.
