GOPDD: Netanyahu’s First Act Under President Trump Lets World Know Obama’s Days of Dictating to Israel are Over

Jan 24, 2017 by Harry Hibbs

It’s been four days since Trump was sworn into office, but Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is not wasting any time letting the world know that things are going to go a bit differently now that there’s a new U.S. president.
One of the final major acts of former President Obama on the world stage was a slight to the state of Israel; the United States abstained from a U.N. vote condemning the tiny Jewish state for settlements in purported Palestinian territories. In the past, the United States has halted such resolutions with its Security Council veto.
