President Barack Obama spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and offered his condolences over the recent terrorist attacks in Israel. Obama also stressed that he remains committed to Israel’s security. According to the readout from the White House:
President Obama called Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu today to convey his condolences over the terrorist attack in Jerusalem yesterday, which killed one person and wounded many others, and to express his concern about the recent rocket and mortar attacks against Israel from Gaza. The President reaffirmed the United States’ unwavering commitment to Israel’s security. The Prime Minister expressed appreciation for the call and said that Israel would continue to update the United States on the investigation into the attack in Jerusalem. The leaders agreed to remain in close touch on a range of regional security issues.
As long as Hamas fires rockets into Israel and as long as terrorists and suicide bombers continue to prevail, Israel will have no choice but to fight back. Unfortunately, this can cause innocent Palestinian deaths and injuries. The choice lies with Hamas and they should be brought to task. United Nations can intervene.
why does he not tell this to the world, and go to Israel to meet with Netanyahu?
