In response to recent speculative media reports on the state of relations between the United States and Israel, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a strong statement condemning the baseless ad hominem charges leveled at President Barack Obama. From JTA:

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called recent unflattering Israeli media reports about the Obama administration “unacceptable.”

Netanyahu also said that he and his advisers are working to “reduce the gaps” with the United States on ways to advance the peace process.

“I have recently heard anonymous, unworthy remarks in the media regarding the American administration and the American president. I would like to make it clear: I find these remarks to be unacceptable,” Netanyahu said Sunday at the start of the regular Cabinet meeting. “They are from nobody acting on my behalf. Relations between Israel and the U.S. are those between allies and friends and reflect longstanding tradition. Even when there are differences of opinion, they are differences of opinion among friends and will remain so.”
