Observations From Today’s Netanyahu And Obama Press Conference

Observations:

  • When speaking of meeting Bibi, Obama seems to start to say Bibi Nut..Netanyahu (0.23)
  • I could not help and look at the Abe Lincoln bust behind Obama when he spoke of Israel being in a “very turbulent neighborhood” (0.17) Not because of who Lincoln was, but because I was reminded of the ISIS beheadings.
  • Obama mentioning the US’ “iron-clad commitment” to Israel’s security, before mentioning the Iron Dome program. I see what he did there.
  • Bibi directly addressing Obama, after Obama spoke of Bibi in the third person
  • Bibi telling Obama Israel fully supports his effort and leadership to defeat ISIS (4:05) was a class touch. And perhaps a little cheeky, given the White House’s less-than-full support for Israel to do the same to Hamas.
