BOOHOO: Obama administration not happy about ‘breach of protocol’ with Netanyahu visit

Just as predicted Obama is not happy about the invitation of Netanyahu and I’m sure he’ll act out in petulant ways toward both Israel and Boehner:

BUZZFEED – The Republican House leader said in a statement that the invitation to speak on Feb. 11 is also intended to be a symbol of the Washington’s “unwavering commitment” to the safety and security of Israel.

“Americans and Israelis have always stood together in shared cause and common ideals, and now we must rise to the moment again,” he said.

However the White House criticized the invitation as a breach of the protocol for when world leaders visit the U.S.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said that usually leaders inform the White House before planning a trip to the U.S. He said the administration will decide a course of action after speaking with the Israelis about what Netanyahu will say in his address, the Associated Press reported.

The State Department also expressed displeasure, with spokesperson Jen Psaki telling reporters “traditionally” the administration would be informed by the world leader directly about a visit.

Breach of protocol…yeah, that’s probably a little of it. But I’d bet good money that Obama is really upset that Netanyahu is coming to America to trash his negotiations with Iran, telling the truth about Iran to American and the world.
