Netanyahu Rejects Obama's Call to Fly UN Flag Over Western Wall
Netanyahu rejects Obama's call to fly UN flag over Western Wall
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu vowed at the Mercaz HaRav yeshiva in Jerusalem Thursday night that the Israeli flag will continue to fly over the Western Wall (Kotel). The first prime minister in years to appear at the venerable yeshiva on Yom Yerushalayim (Jerusalem Day), he ignored U.S. President Barack Obama’s apparent trial balloon that he wants to see the United Nations flag fly over the Old City holy sites.
Prime Minister Netanyahu declared, "The flag that flies over the Kotel is the Israeli flag... Our holy places, the Temple Mount -- will remain under Israeli sovereignty forever.”
Between 1949 and 1967, the religious sites in the City, as well as all of Judea and Samaria, had been under the control of Jordan, which forbid entry of Jews to the Western Wall (Kotel) and other holy places, as well as barring Christians from churches. Israel immediately opened all holy sites to all religions after the entire city was re-united in 1967, returning the Old City to Israeli sovereignty after nearly 2,000 years

The NERVE this took or insanity or hate, yessss it has to be out right hate Obama has for Israel. This is really disgusting!!!!!!
Could B. Hussein Obama be any more of a terrorist supporter? Can you imagine someone from another country telling us NOT to fly our Flag over our White House and to replace it with the UN flag? No Way!
Obama is not a friend of Israel or America.
God bless BiBi, he is really being put through a lot. There is a LOT of pressure on him right now from many sides.

Someone from another country may not have to. A "someone"previously from another country may save them the bother. It would not surprise me if Barry Soetoro, or whatever his real name is, would have the audacity to float that baloon himself.

You know, this wild assed commie is just crazy enough to try to give the Alamo to Mexico. I would like to know exactly what Netanyahu told Obama.

Bob A., yes you have a good point. He
would be the one to try it.

Jack,yes this shocked so much.

Mark, I could see obama trying to do
that. If he does I hope a sniper shoots
it down every time he tries to put
the UN flag back up.

Tom, I would love to know that too. BiBi
had to have been so angry that he really
let it all out when he got back to Israel.
Obama better not do that with the Alamo or
there will be hell to pay.
