Prime Minister Ehud Olmert acted like a "sycophant" by excessively praising US President George W. Bush in his joint statements with him instead of defending Israel's interests, senior Likud sources said Thursday.

The sources said that opposition leader Binyamin Netanyahu, by contrast, devoted his 45-minute meeting with Bush and other top American officials to pressing for Israel's security concerns and its history to be taken into account when decisions are being made about the country's fate.

"Jerusalem has belonged to the Jewish people for 3,000 years and the Jewish people will ensure that it will remain undivided under Jewish sovereignty forever," Netanyahu told Bush at the capital's King David Hotel Thursday morning.

To emphasize the connection of the Jewish people to Jerusalem, Netanyahu gave Bush an ancient coin from the Great Revolt ahead of the destruction of the Second Temple in 70CE. The inscription on the coin included the words "holy Jerusalem."

Netanyahu outlined an alternative plan for peace with the Palestinians that would involve building a strong Palestinian economy that would encourage peace from bottom instead of imposing peace from politicians at the top.

But most of the meeting was devoted to the Iranian issue. Netanyahu pressed Bush to take action against Iran before he leaves office in January 2009.


"Iran is a threat to world peace," Netanyahu said, using the same words that Bush used the night before.

The meeting was also attended by US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, National Security Adviser Stephen Hadley, Deputy National Security Adviser Elliott Abrams and Chief of Staff Josh Bolton. Netanyahu's associates expressed satisfaction that the meeting, which was supposed to last just 20 minutes, went on for 45.

Bush initially did not intend to meet with Netanyahu, but US Ambassador to Israel Richard Jones called the latter personally early Wednesday and invited him to meet the US president. Netanyahu's associates said they did not apply pressure to receive a meeting but that a Jerusalem Post story Monday about Netanyahu blaming Prime Minister Ehud Olmert for blocking a meeting had an impact.

Netanyahu told Army Radio that the test of Israeli leaders would always be "the ability to stand in front of our enemies and also our friends and say, 'these things are important for our security,'" adding that he did not believe Olmert shared this belief.

"We need to stand firm for our interests in the face of the current realities and for the values sacred to the people of Israel," Netanyahu said. "This is not something which lessens others' appreciation for us but actually increases it. From my experience in international affairs, I have learned that world leaders respect Israeli leaders who know how to stand up for Israel's interests."

I think Netanyahu did the right thing. I have heard some speeches of him on Youtube. He is nearly such a good orator as our good Chaim. Perhaps he can convince Bush to stop the pressure on Israel for the rest of Bushs election period.

The evil Muslimes have said, that when they have the control in Jerusalem, no Jew has the right to pray there. You can't appease them by giving them land, which not belongs to them.

The German press is very angry about Bush, because they mention, that Bush has

Der US-Präsident kam, um den Friedensprozess in Nahen Osten zu beschleunigen. Er erreichte das Gegenteil: George W. Bush hat bei seinem Besuch den Graben zwischen Israel und den Palästinensern vertieft und Präsident Abbas bloßgestellt.


Translation:

The US-president came, to advance the peace-process in the Near East. He accomplished the opposite: George W. Bush has made at his last visit the rift between Israel and the Philistinians deeper and President Abbas compromised.

Perhaps there is hope for Israel.

  Ihope the German Press is correct

Netanyahu is jealous that Bush Jr. snubbed him.  Netanyahu wanted to meet with him but he snubbed Netanyahu.
