Netanyahu: We Will Build in All of Jerusalem

Israeli PM Netanyahu defies Obama:

“Over the past 40 years, no Israeli government has agreed to limit building in Jerusalem,” Netanyahu said today in a speech to Parliament, ticking off five sections of the city that were captured from Jordan in the 1967 war and now house tens of thousands of Israelis.

I think the Israelis know what to expect from Obama in terms of help - nothing. And on top of that, Obama wants them to agree with allowing a nuclear Iran. Besides, the stopped building in the Gaza Strip several years ago and look what that's gotten them: a daily barrage of missiles.
