Friendship is a 2-way street

I was thinking. With the anti-Israeli Obama administration saying so often that as a "friend" it has an obligation to express its criticism of Israel, to air its disagreements publicly, and to tell the "truth", I can only hope that the Netanyahu administration finds it within itself to do the same.
The American people deserve to hear and know the truth.
The American people deserve to hear how the Obama administration is harming America's standing and deterrent capabilities in the real world with its policies of appeasement and attacking allies instead of enemies.
The American people need to hear that "speak much, but carry a small stick" is not good foreign policy (but seems to be reversed when it comes to Israel).
America deserves to hear that Obama has taken on the job of advocates for the Arab nations, and is not acting like an honest broker.
America needs to know that Obama's lack of experience and far left political agenda has caused the Arabs to take even more hard-line positions than ever before. And those hard line positions are what make peace even more elusive.
Obama and his administration repeatedly declares that the US stands with Israel on it's security. And we Israelis believe that. Because we know the American people stand with us. And we thank you for that.
We even know that the American people also stands with Israel as a fellow democracy, and for our heritage and what we have given and still give to the world.
But we don't believe believe the Obama administration stands with us.
And as a friend, America needs to know that most Israelis don't trust Obama, and we believe he wants to change that American policy of friendship and eventually throw us under a truck.
That's the hard truth. And as a friend you need to hear that.
That's what a friend would do. Or so I've repeatedly heard.

Joe, you believe the Tanakh, right? Have you ever meditated on Isaiah 36:4-6 and how in our day, Obama might be a parallel for Pharoah?
Then Rabshakeh said to them, "Say now to Hezekiah, 'Thus says the great king, the king of Assyria, "What is this confidence that you have?
I say, 'Your counsel and strength for the war are only empty words.' Now on whom do you rely, that you have rebelled against me? Behold, you rely on the staff of this crushed reed, even on Egypt, on which if a man leans, it will go into his hand and pierce it. So is Pharaoh king of Egypt to all who rely on him."
An ill-timed report has been sur·rep·ti·tiously (acting in a stealthy, secret way) leaked. IMHO This is part of a drive for REGIME CHANGE in Israel. They want Bibi OUT! G-d forbid.
There is a "leftist mole" or "moles" somewhere in the govt. and this is deliberately timed to work against Bibi, and for a change in PM. The good Israelis must find out who it is and do something about it. Trace it back to one of Clinton's "friends" she acknowledged at the AIPAC conf. or to J Street; there's a definite connec. betw them and the leftists in Israel, up to NO GOOD!
