The United States has many enemies around the globe. This country is not well liked by many countries. There are a few with whom the U.S. has rock-solid relationships, Great Britain across the pond, Canada our neighbor to the North and Israel in the Middle East to name a few. There are others. Israel, perhaps, over the years, has been our staunchest ally. Israel sits in a part of the world where all its neighbors would like to blow the tiny country off the face of the earth. U.S. presidents have always vowed to stand by Israel should the need be. Until now. President Barack Obama several times has turned his back on Israel, and he apparently is doing it again. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits this country and the United Nations later this month. The president has met with Netanyahu during each of his visits to the U.S. but Obama says he has no time this time. Excuse me!! Israel is on the brink of war with Iran who has threatened Israel with nuclear weapons. Under the circumstances, Mr. President, you make the time! Even if there was no request on the part of Israel for a meeting, it's incumbent on you to schedule one.
