Thread: Great Moments in World History

Obama’s ‘embarrassing’ absence at unity march gets lampooned [photoshop].

But Clint Eastwood found him. Honestly, everyone who made fun of that empty-chair routine should apologize. It perfectly foreshadowed Obama’s second term.

Third thread where I saw these pics ?
Persistent indeed

Good idea for a thread though

In the begining...

Great moments in World History... #BerlinWall #ParisMarch

America snubs historic Paris rally: Holder skipped out of proceedings early, Kerry was in India, Obama and Biden just stayed home

Neither President Obama or Vice President Joe Biden attended the
historic event, though both of their schedules were open

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder was in Paris for a terrorism
summit, but was not seen at the march which followed

The only U.S. representative at the march was Ambassador Jane
Hartley

Are you comparing the fall of the berlin wall to be in the same league as a load of frogs having a sunday stroll?

Netanyahu crashes Paris unity march, French gov’t fumes

Barak Ravid reports for Haaretz:

French President Francois Hollande conveyed a message to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over the weekend asking him not to come to Paris to take part in the march against terror on Sunday, according to an Israeli source who was privy to the contacts between the Elysees Palace and the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem. The fact that this message had been conveyed was first reported by Channel 2.
After the French government began to send invitations to world leaders to participate in the rally against terror, Hollande’s national security adviser, Jacques Audibert, contacted his Israeli counterpart, Yossi Cohen, and said that Hollande would prefer that Netanyahu not attend, the source said.
Audibert explained that Hollande wanted the event to focus on demonstrating solidarity with France, and to avoid anything liable to divert attention to other controversial issues, like Jewish-Muslim relations or the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Audibert said that Hollande hoped that Netanyahu would understand the difficulties his arrival might pose and would announce that he would not be attending.
The source noted that one of the French concerns – not conveyed to representatives of the Israeli government – was that Netanyahu would take advantage of the event for campaign purposes and make speeches, especially about the Jews of France. Such statements, the Elysee Palace feared, would hurt the demonstration of solidarity the French government was trying to promote as part of dealing with the terror attacks.

Netanyahu reportedly first agreed to stay away, but then changed course upon learning that his political rivals Avigdor Lieberman and Naftali Bennett would be there.
Ravid continues:

When Netanyahu heard [Lieberman and Bennett] were going, he informed the French he would be attending the march after all.
According to the source, when Cohen informed Audibert that Netanyahu would be attending the event after all, Audibert angrily told Cohen that the prime minister’s conduct would have an adverse effect on ties between the two countries as long as Hollande was president of France and Netanyahu was prime minister of Israel.

And Hollande’s concerns about Netanyahu were well founded. The Israeli leader did seek to exploit the tragedy in a speech at the Grand Synagogue in Paris where he made the case for French Jews to leave the country for Israel. From The Jerusalem Post:

Netanyahu, careful not to overtly called for immediate immigration, said, “ I want to say to you what I say to all our Jewish brothers, that you have a full right to live secure and peaceful lives with equal rights wherever you desire, including here in France.”
Then he added, “these days we are blessed with another privilege, a privilege that didn’t exist for generations of Jews – the privilege to join their brothers and sisters in their historic homeland of Israel.”

Ravid reports Hollande was not happy:

Hollande’s anger at Netanyahu was evident during the ceremony held Sunday evening following the march at the Grand Synagogue in Paris, an event attended by hundreds of members of the local Jewish community.
Hollande sat through most of the ceremony, but when Netanyahu’s turn at the podium arrived, the French president got up from his seat and made an early exit.

Several other people also got up and left ('prior commitments', in diplospeak). When Hollande greeted Mahmoud Abbas, they warmly embraced. When he greeted Bibi, he shook his hand coldly, like one would take the hand of a leper.



Bibi the 'Pushy' Israeli


Lapid: Netanyahu represented 'pushy' Israelis in Paris



Yesh Atid chairman adds to criticism of Netanyahu's last minute trip to Paris, criticizing the prime minister for video showing him skipping a line to get to the bus.



Yesh Atid chairman Yair Lapid joined the criticism that was flooding towards the Netanyahu camp after his visit in Paris and said on Monday that while it was good that Israel had representation in Paris, Netanyahu represented the "impolite" and "pushy" Israeli.

"The prime minister's behavior in Paris shows the world the impolite Israeli, the pushy Israeli, and it is unfortunate," said Lapid at a conference in Tel Aviv on Monday.

Lapid's comments came after a video posted on Facebook, the news footage mockingly set to the Looney Tunes cartoon music, showed Netanyahu maneuvering his way to the front of the rally with the help of several bodyguards, allowing him to be photographed arm-in-arm with other leaders, including French President Francois Hollande and German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

To add injury to insult, Netanyahu was also captured skipping to the head of the line for a bus in Paris in a video that also spread on the internet.


"A prime minister who pushes his way in line is a type of behavior that is not polite," said Lapid. "This is how Netanyahu acted with the Americans when he slowly started to destroy our relations with the US, and I do not want this to happen to us with Europe," said Lapid in an interview with journalist Niv Riskin.
Lapid added that he wanted to visit Paris as well but decided not to go because he saw that Israel had more than enough representation at the march with Netanyahu, Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, Enonomy Minister Naftali Bennett, and former Shas member Eli Yishai representing Israel in Paris.


Netanyahu managed to ruffle a few feathers while taking part in the "Charlie Hebdo" rally in Paris on Sunday, an event his office initially said he would not be attending for security reasons.

Perhaps most awkward was his invitation to French Jews - alarmed by the Paris attacks and the killing of four people at a kosher supermarket - to migrate to Israel if they wanted, leaving French Prime Minister Manuel Valls scrambling to reassure the community it was safe and an integral part of France.
Rabbi Menachem Margolin, the head of the European Jewish Association, was particularly stern, saying Aliyah - the process of Jews migrating to Israel - was not the answer to everything, even if it was an important policy for the state of Israel.
"Anyone familiar with the European reality knows that a call to Aliyah is not the solution for anti-Semitic terror," he said.
Only a few French Jews move to Israel each year - last year 7,000 out of the 550,000-strong community. That number is expected to rise to more than 10,000 in 2015, in part because of last week's attacks.

Bibi the Cheat

Netanyahu Crops Abbas Out Of Paris Unity March Photo



The office of Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu cropped out Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas from an iconic photo of today's massive unity march in Paris.

The photo as Netanyahu tweeted it with an arrow added to show where Abbas is standing:

Looks like dear Bibbies attempt at early election campaigning was both a disaster and a humiliation.


What Nicolas Sarkozy (also Jewish) really thought of Israeli prime minister Netanyahu (recorded at the G20 meeting in Cannes the French president was clearly unaware a nearby microphone was open) :-

Sarkozy- "Netanyahu, I can't stand him. He's a liar."

Obama- "You're sick of him? I have to work with him every day."


I wholeheartedly agree.

They should have made Bibi stand next to, arm in arm, in solidarity, Mr Abbas. Abbas would have done it, war criminal bib would not have.
