[08 Nov 2013] Comment - President Obama Netanyahu pain - English
US President Barack Obama described Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as \"a pain in the ass\" in the run-up to the 2012 presidential election, a new book authored by two American journalists reveals. \"We all know that Bibi Netanyahu is a pain in the ass,\" the recently-published book \"Double Down, Game Change 2012\" quotes Obama as having said. The book has been written by John Heilemann of New York Magazine and Mark Halperin of Time Magazine. The book also said Obama \"blamed himself for accepting the distorted political prism through which every effort to achieve a settlement in the region was mediated.\"
