The White House: Has a readout of President Obama's telephone chats with the President Morsi of Egypt & PM Netanyahu of Israel. POTUS stated the following, " ..President Obama called President Morsi of Egypt. The two leaders discussed ways to de-escalate the situation in Gaza, and President Obama underscored the necessity of Hamas ending rocket fire into Israel. President Obama also offered condolences for the terrible loss of life in the recent train accident in Egypt. President Obama then called Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel, and received an update on the situation in Gaza and Israel. In both calls, President Obama expressed regret for the loss of Israeli and Palestinian civilian lives, and agreed to stay in close touch with both leaders. ".
Lets Get Real:
It shows how powerless the US is with Obama in the Oval, in many ways the Oval is a bystander, in the old days the US Secretary of State would have been on the plane, trying to calm matters, now the Oval is under attack from two fronts, the Republicans think that the Oval did a spin job on the Libyan terrorists attack, and the US is facing a financial cliff, thus in essence the Oval is impotent, Israel does not trust the Oval, with reason, while the Muslim Brotherhood is in charge in Egypt. They have to play to the Arab Street. The Days of Empire have gone folks.
