Netanyahu and Obama: A Horde against a Constituency of One……………



Obama has no chance: Netanyahu has the upper hand.
Bibi has the Israeli public (most of it) behind his hardline extreme right-wing policies. He also has a huge constituency in the USA, including the Republican Part and its various sub-sects, not to mention many Democrats, and Fox News. Obama’s only constituency in Israel is the US ambassador (maybe) and his staff (maybe). In the US he has Rahm Emanuel and David Axlerod on his side, but Netanyahu has pre-epmted their influence by calling them “Self-hating Jews”. That is how it stands between Obama, the most popular leader around the world and Netanyahu, one of the least (if not the least) popular leaders around the world.
