"Shocked" White House Slams "Fabrication" After Israel TV Leaks Damning Transcript Of Obama-Netanyahu Phone Call
While everyone's attention is glued on Russia and whether Obama can successfully launch World War III, things are going from bad to worse when it also comes to US relations with Israel. Recall that here things were already on the verge of disaster after for some reason, Kerry was unleashed to "arrange" a ceasefire with Israel, when in reality the SecState somehow managed to infuriate every single feuding faction (there are a lot of them), Israel included, after Haaretz wrote that "Kerry ruined everything."
So what happened next? Something rather stunning according to the US State Department, and which according to BBC reporter Paul Danahar, constitutes "a severe violation of a private discussions" - Israel’s Channel 1 decided to publish a Hebrew transcript of a portion of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama’s telephone conversation which took place on Sunday, in which Obama was insistent that Israel unilaterally halt all military activities in the Gaza Strip. As is quite clear by now, Israel rejected, and the bloodshed continued.
The transcript, as shown by the Times of Israel was as follows:
The following is an English translation of the Hebrew account of the talk given in the report:
Barack Obama: I demand that Israel agrees to an immediate, unilateral ceasefire and halt all offensive activities, in particular airstrikes.
Benjamin Netanyahu: And what will Israel receive in exchange for a ceasefire?
BO: I believe that Hamas will cease its rocket fire — silence will be met with silence.
BN: Hamas broke all five previous ceasefires. It’s a terrorist organization dedicated to the destruction of Israel.
BO: I repeat and expect Israel to stop all its military activities unilaterally. The pictures of destruction in Gaza distance the world from Israel’s position.
BN: Kerry’s proposal was completely unrealistic and gives Hamas military and diplomatic advantages.
BO: Within a week of the end of Israel’s military activities, Qatar and Turkey will begin negotiations with Hamas based on the 2012 understandings, including Israel’s commitment to removing the siege and restrictions on Gaza.
BN: Qatar and Turkey are the biggest supporters of Hamas. It’s impossible to rely on them to be fair mediators.
BO: I trust Qatar and Turkey. Israel is not in the position that it can choose its mediators.
BN: I protest because Hamas can continue to launch rockets and use tunnels for terror attacks –
BO: (interrupting Netanyahu) The ball’s in Israel’s court, and it must end all its military activities.
One can quickly see why the US would quickly disavow any credibility of this report: after all it wouldn't look very good for the leader of the free world if the leader of another state, one which on top of it all is reliant on the former for continued military and economic support, flat out rejected what amounted to a demand from the US. As expected the denial was prompt with the US administration calling the quotations "fabrications", "shocking", and "disappointing"
It took mere minutes for the National Security Council to deny the transcript was even remotely accurate:
We have seen reports of an alleged POTUS-Netanyahu transcript; neither reports nor alleged transcript bear any resemblance to reality 1/2
— @NSCPress (@NSCPress) July 29, 2014
Shocking and disappointing someone would sink to misrepresenting a pvt convo between POTUS and PM in fabrications to Israeli press 2/2
— @NSCPress (@NSCPress) July 29, 2014
Sure enough, it wouldn't look good if only the US denied so Netanyahu had to step in, which he did:
The Prime Minister’s Office says in a statement that the Channel 1 report is false, using precisely the same words as the White House.
“We have seen these reports, and neither the reports nor the alleged transcript bear any resemblance to reality. It’s shocking and disappointing that someone would sink to misrepresenting a private conversation between the President and the Prime Minister in fabrications to the Israeli press,” the PMO says.
Despite the denials, Israel's Channel 1 refused to retract the leaked statement. Worse, it revealed the source of the leak as a "senior American official."
Despite rejections by American and Israeli officials, Channel 1?s Or Nahari insists that the transcript leaked to him by a “senior American official” is authentic, but acknowledges that the quotes he published were merely an excerpt from a long conversation.
All of which leads to three quite disturbing, for Obama, possibilities:
- With Russia clearly ignoring US "superpower" status and openly defying not only the US, but Europe, and hence NATO, Obama now has another foreign relations disaster on his hands, where a former close ally of the US is now openly refusing to bow down to US demands.
- There is a leak in the highest echelons of US power, one which appears focused on exposing the administration in a position of weakness
- The media tactics of fabrication and lies, so prevalent in the US vs Russia proxy war through the Ukraine, have now seeped over into US-Israel relations.
Whichever one of these is the truth, it simply means that the old Pax Americana world, in which the word of the US president was final, is no more, and first Russia (and thus the BRICs), and now such staunch allies as Israel, are clearly defying the former. Or perhaps one should add former superpower?
As for John Kerry, just stick a fork in him already as per the following clip.

Great book. Read "two hundred years together" next. Same author.
The MOSSAD pay well does it?.....lol nice try Jew stop your GENOCIDE stealing the last 10% of what Palestinian lands have left
You got your history ass backwards there partner. The Jews were promised land west of the River Jordan. Jews robbed again. Well, they do RRRruuuuuuuuuule the world so it all evens out. Do you work in a bumper sticker factory...I mean your intellect seems to suggest...just askin :)
Who promised them, the British born Jewish emporer Constantine? The one who killed the vedic priests in the vatican?
Why do you boys hate gentiles so much. It is as if you are suffering from anti-goyism.
Is that bad? No seriously 2,000 years of Christianity is pretty chocked full of barbarity. Too bad now it's just a human secularist front org for socialism. Wait, that's just a continuation of barbarity...but without God.
"dared" indeed.
Bob Carr's - "daring" book.
Remember, boys and girls, there is no "Israel Lobby." Not in the US, or Australia, or Canada, or France, or the UK... and not any other place where Jewish Zionists are a small minority with wildly disproportionate financial, political, and media power - and I dare* you to prove otherwise!
*please note I will dismiss any and all such evidence as per se 'anti-Semitic' and ergo false, without considering it. Thank you in advance.
good they were kicked outa arabian world, the only smart move they did. but still they have remote control!
I don't believe any of this. I believe FDR when he said "nothing in politics is accident, there are no gaffs. "What is said is meant to be released. The same as hot mics, like obama hot mic in Russia was to keep these guys in the game thinking "Obama is going to change things in second term"
i live in hard left country, they are outraged at Israels genocide. They won't vote in the midterms after this display of psycho.
The world will be a safer place when we don't see Nut and Yahoo.
its about time those Genocidal bastards paid the piper....the whole lie is unravelling-and there is NOTHING Israel can do to stop it LOL
I'm an astrologer.
Jan 20, 2009 Pluto entered Capricorn. Saturn is Capricorns ruler, it rules the Jewish people since they still worship it. It was El in the ancient sky. What Pluto does is destroy all that is diseased and leaves that which is healthy untouched. It gives great power to those who's sign he enters, but only at first. He gives them enough rope. Then he unmasks them for all to see. He loves us so much that he will put on elbow length gloves, sticks his hand up our ass and pull out that all that is diseased. He loves us so much that he will kill us, if it is for our own good.
Pluto was at high power in the 1930s. You saw Ghandi and Hitler, both Plutonian figures. Ghandi masters Pluto, he stripped more and more and stayed in humilty. Hitler did pomp and parade. Ghandi won because he stayed true to truth. He unmasked himself.
That is what is happening now.
Trust the process and boycott and divest Israel.
Gandhi was shot with a bullet to his heart.
So much for being idealist.
& many ppl believe he deserved it.
The US may be called a Plutocracy.
People who oppose Plutocracy are subject to treatment under the Patriot Act.
You do know about the Patriot Act, don't you?
I'm a mathematician, and all of what you wrote about astrology seems to add up to BS, with one exception, the conclusion: BOYCOTT AND DIVEST ISRAEL! So, you deserve 100+.
As math teachers I liked used to say, I don't care how you figured it out, just that you did. (You just didn't need to show your work.)
AND don't forget #ZionistCEO to go with the #prayforGaza, etc. Get out the list of the companies giving millions to the Zionist regimes.
More importantly the CEOs whose companies give our politicians millions so we give Israel billions.
#ZionistCongressman - Rep. Schneider (d) Illionois, (among hundreds)
#ZionistSenator - John McCain must be on top, Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, Bob Casey, Bob Memendez (D) - NJ, Cory Booker (D) - NJJ,
(Sen. Menendez has raised $177,270 from those pro-Israel groups now backing his legislation. Freshman Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), a sanctions co-sponsor, raised $161,180 from the groups just last year.)
#AIPACwhores -AIPAC helps connect donors with candidates, especially to the network of pro-Israel political action committees. AIPAC president Howard Friedman says “AIPAC meets with every candidate running for Congress. These candidates receive in-depth briefings to help them completely understand the complexities of Israel’s predicament and that of the Middle East as a whole. We even ask each candidate to author a ‘position paper’ on their views of the US-Israel relationship – so it’s clear where they stand on the subject.”
re Pluto entered Capricorn...

Actually, we are in the Age of Aquarius (planet of Uranus)

Ghandi won??? India is a shit heap where the vast majority live in squalor, and whatever Ghandi accomplished did little for his homeland.
Yes, but it's a "free" shit heap with it's very own bomb.
Brother Nathanael speaks on Gaza. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ILrM7yh1v8
Are you sure he ain't a Jew...all I see is him pan handling for money. BTW, I guess you are from the ME, I can't view the video...it says "not available in your country." I'm in the US you turban turd.
I am in usa and I saw it.
maybe it's my browser, TOR
@falcon...."maybe its my browser TOR"
No maybe it's your piss stained hasbara cubicle/ laptop that has lost contact with the router.
Fixed it for ya!
yep, it's your bugged browser, reTORd

He is wise, devoted and a cool cat all at the same time.
America will survive, but it won't be pretty. This country will be bathed in blood.
Like it has never seen before, worse than the civil war.
It will go back to its original intent. You can not kill an idea.
Nathaniel is a former jew who converted to Christianity. I think he wears that silly circus hat to discredit alternative news.
An Orthodox Christian maybe..a Patriarch
He's got too much Intel, he must be FSB.
I am disappointed that Washington is disavowing what I thought were the best words I'd ever heard Obama utter!
LOL. Well, when it comes to US foreign policy, the Jews (incl. the omnipotent pro-Israeli lobby in the US) are the boss.
No, no, no.
The boss to Obama is the US American middle class.
On this one, Obama's plan did not reflect the will of the US American middle class. By letting it leak, 'americans' in Israel let the boss know.
The US American middle class is the boss and extremely supportive of the ethnical cleansing effort in Gaza.
Well, a big chunk of the American middle class (if it can still be called one) have been hynotised by the Jew-controlled mass propaganda network.
What if all this was correct but premediated for release to press, to show Barack Obama as an angel of peace.
While the truth is otherwise .
Remember the thumb rule , wartime stories are ALL lies w/o exception.
Indeed, that's certainly possible. In that case, the scripting of that telcall serves dual purposes.
Benjamin Netanyahu is the Leader of the Free World while Barack Obama is a minor league tyrant who is a world wide laughingstock and embarassment to the USA. Benjamin did us all a service by standing up to the Muslim stooge.
Netanyahu may very well be a higher ranking person than Obama but what is this "Free World" you speak of??
Free as in free to kill as many little kiddies as he likes without winding up in the Hague.
1-Fuck the Palestinians want you to stop immediately!
2-You quese fuck!
1-All right, I'll play golf ....
hehe.
'senior American official' = Israeli Lobby
This quite long academic paper explains the Israeli lobby and US Foreign Policy. It's clearly written though and can be skimmed through
http://mearsheimer.uchicago.edu/pdfs/IsraelLobby.pdf
"Benjamin Netanyahu: And what will Israel receive in exchange for a ceasefire?"
Let me get this straight. Obama demands of Netanyahu that Israel stops bombing/killing innocent civilians including children and widespread destruction of Gaza's infrastructure and the only thing Netanyahu wants to know is "what do we get in exchange?"
Obama missed responding thusly: "We won't send you to The Hague for war crimes."
What war crimes?
Obama should be impeached on that move. What he has tried to do did not reflect the will of his master, the 'american' middle class.
'Americans' residing in the US support the bombing and killing of innocent civilians in Gaza. 'Americans' residing in Israel know that. They leaked the report. Immediately, the servant that is Obama must back pedal because his plan goes against the will of his master.
As usual, even though the reality is raw, this site tries to cover for the 'american' middle class as they are customer targets.
Y-A-W-N
......................
zzzzzZZZZZZZzZzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Nothing to worry about. The 'american' middle class will come out, free of any charge.
your middle class is all good reich democrats and the govt workers. the middle class no longer exists outside democrat crony biz and govt workers. your merely saying the govt and its cronies in biz support da jooos.
What about empirical validation?
US Americans do not take streets that often. They are taking streets right now to exhibit their support to Israel's endeavours in Gaza.
Nothing easier than going and check to see if 'americans' there are "good reich democrats" and the "govt workers" only.
One thing is sure: those people are 'american'middle class.
Whilst Obama's cronies (and Netanyahu's) display anger at their private conversation being leaked to Israeli media by a Washington insider, it is no different to the billions of private conversations and other communications that go on between ordinary individuals around the world - including Presidents and Prime Ministers of other countries - which are being secretly collected by the NSA and GCHQ for no other reason than to surveil the citizenry and get one-step-ahead. Any one of them could find its way into the public domain from somebody working in those organisations.
MO of the Manchurian Candidate Obama
HARK YE!
All that shall come to pass, verily, is hidden in a Russell Crowe movie.
For the record, gnosticism is/was fascinating.
nmewn shall lead us, to the promised land, where we will kill all that breathes, our new, holy land.
Amen.
BO really stinks!
Lol, if you honestly believe this was a real phone call, you'd better wake up.
The chances these people actually talk apart from the media are slim to none.
Also, why would the USA even care what happens to HAMAS?
Ah, very interesting. Cheap shot on all 'american' propagandists.
Obama, the 'american' negro in the oval office, tries to show some resolve to end the conflict.
'Americans' in Israel know that Obama is only a servant to his WeThePeople and that his WeThePeople aka his 'american' middle class, fully support the 'american' destruction effort in Gaza.
The report is leaked by 'americans' in Israel, the Master in the US is informed, then the servant must immediately back down.
All 'americans' who claim about conspiracy theories, muttering that the 'american' middle class is not in charge, that the government does not serve them, are exposed by this cheap shot.
Here's a president who tries to assert a personal policy that goes against the US American popular will, that is who tries to put a stop to an ethnical cleansing, bingo, it is enough to leak the conversation to inform the King class and it is over. The servant must take his own plan and stick to the will of his master, WeThePeople, aka the 'american' middle class.
Nobel Committee Obligated to Strip Obama of Peace Prize
Stripping Obama from his peace prize is like stripping the 'american' middle class from it.
What do you mean Obongo has no standing in the world? He's got the best handicap in the G7
What it means? That the US American middle class is the master of Obama.
The US American middle class supports the destructive effort in Gaza. Leaking it out was a way to remove pressure from a servant who was not representing his master's interests.
Handicap is a golfing reference. Don't worry about the middle class, they are being dealt with as we speak.
"It is not a matter of what is true that counts, but a matter of what is perceived to be true."
kissinger .
Obama, the champion of peace, love and understanding. Give that man another Nobel peace prize.
one would hope a few on ZH realize you are taking sides in a viper fight, the green viper is right, no the black one -not very smart..killing humans is a job best left to ebola.
USA is the bully, not Israel.
Next worst thing to happen is US will get bombed, then the Nazi will dare to attack Israel all together which is what they want to do.
Nazi i.e. Muslims, France, Germany, Russians etc.
no, most of the world thinks Israel deserves a good swift kick in the ass.....from one of their own spiked jackboots
There are some really dumb fucks on this forum but man oh man, you win the prize for the top of dat list.
Give the guy a break, and remember - after one more month he'll be waking up early to catch a ride on "the short bus".
As if the "Chosen Ones" ever had any intention of taking orders off a mulatto.
The "chosen" view his as the "help".
Barack Hussein Obama: The Ultimate Manchurian Candidate
There was a video made on the US's hidden war in Laos and the carpet bombing of Laos's section of the Ho Chi Minh trail, over a period of 1965-1971, following on to installation of a hidden CIA air force base.
A major secret operation created expressly in Laos by CIA, in northern plain of Jarres region, for smuggling in Opium and heroin via Air America operations. As part of sweetner offered to local war lords for supply of local population as cannon fodder.
It was a massive CIA base and it force recruited the local population in the resulting war when the commies retaliated.
That war as related by the movie on Arte channel shows to what extent the US committed war crimes under LBJ, followed on and magnified subsequently by Dear Henry, in his hidden war on Laos/Cambodia, all on the backs of B 52 armadas flown in from Guam base.
Awesome carpet bombing destruction of that region.
Collateral damage? So huge it couldn't be evaluated as those recurrent bombs destroyed what was left of the bodies on the ground.
Well, we see the same today albeit on a smaller scale from what Israel does in Gaza. In those days the world press did not cover this US organised tragedy until its later stages when the NAM war became a TV horror show daily on the news, aka from Tet offensive and 1968 onwards.
So, Potus has some history reading to do...and we have some remembering to do!
Not credible.
More likely made plans for golf resort after the place is cleared of any capable opposition. Obama like Net is meglomaniac.
Fortunately we have Kerry to interfere.
This text is isreali propaganda.
Poor little isreal in big mean world.
The dictator of the “chosen people” may have just crossed the line with the wannabe dictator of the alleged “exceptional people”.
So, can we please stop giving them tax dollars and arms now?
Obama is a complete empty suit - granted. He is probablbly pro-Hamas - granted.
But maybe it is just the transalation but the transcript ssounds like bullshite to me....
Since all national leaders are cartoon characters, let's pick some new ones. How about suggestions for characters to play the roles of US president and Israeli president. This could be fun ;-)
As an Israeli I can say that almost half of my Israeli friends do not see USA as an ally of Israel anymore. It seems to us that Mr. Obama choose to be with Qatar and Turkey instead of Israel. Regarding Iran, it looks ridiculous that so much time and words spent on "nuclear agreement", so maybe the USA want Iran to have special nuclear weapon that can kill only Israel but could not kill any American.
#1 Iran isn't seeking a nuclear weapon
#2 Israel lives ONLY from the money & weapons given to it from the USA. If these are gone Israel is erased.
#3 Israel shouldn't even have allies: it's a stolen land of Palestine, there is no nation of Israel.
Good example of a moron, POTUS, talking to a real world leader. What continues to amaze is the lack of outrage from the American public and the anti semitic media over the antics of the phony head of state here in the U.S..
What antisemitic media? I haven't seen any.
Kerry is not the President of the United States, so he's irrelevant. The issue is Obama had virtually no expereince when he was elected. He was a extortionist community leader who saddled us with a bunch of mortgages the taxpayers bailed out, left wing lawyer, do nothing state senator, and a no show junior member of the US Senate. This is what you get for voting for a Marxist who plays the race card. People are idiots.
Kerry is not the President of the United States,
Voters said NO but ended up with a reject as Secretary of State
This story makes for a lot of confusion on zerohedge. On the one hand, most of you are anti-Obama, but on the other hand you're also anti-Israel. Reminds me of the confusion that occurs on Fathers' day in Harlem.
This is an, "have your cake and eat it too" kind of place.
Moar red meat BS for the right wing.
LoL
Better watch out USSA or Israel might stage another false flag...

Now that would be ironic.
A fucking Kenyan monkey starts a war on the fucking jews because they started the second holocaust, this time in Palestine.
And the new jewish Hitler tells the Monkey to fuck off
Dang, looks like this this article holds a near record for the amount of Jew haters to crawl out of the Paultard cave to chime in. BiBi must be doing something right.
Hating the demonic IDF genocide soldiers and their demon-leaders is not related whatsoever to hating jews.
Ever.
Same as hating Nazis means NOT hating GERMANS. Israel does NOT SPEAK FOR JEWS. It speaks for the demon-class of genocide maniacs only. Israel has more in common with HITLER than with JEWS AROUND THE WORLD.
THe Hamas missiles are large and there are thousands of them that the objious question is that if Hamas can smuggle such volumes into palestine then why not smuggle consumer items into palestine instead.
funny how big bad israel is afraid of the mousy palestinians. they sound like chickenshit pussybois.
israel is getting desparate. this is not good for the usa. we will have a star of david flag attack within the next few months complete with brand new iranian passports that survived a bomb blast or plane crash in pristine condition.
The handlers, the puppet-masters, are all dual-citizens. It's not credible for that one reason that any script would be given to the US puppet-in-chief that actually speaks out against the puppet-masters.
