Middle East. U.S. President wants to force Netanyahu, who dithers. 
is the response of tit for tat. Since the center Begin-Sadat (BESA), University of Bar-Ilan Benjamin (Bibi) Netanyahu has delivered on Sunday 14 June, his reply to the speech in Cairo on June 4 Barack Obama.Après have refused to publicly discuss the principle of a future Palestinian state, he ended up sending a message as a "yes but". Yes to the creation of a demilitarized Palestinian state, provided that the Palestinians recognize Israel as the state of the people juif.Non the sudden stop construction in existing settlements in the West Bank. Seen as a step forward from Washington, this address has angered the Palestinian Authority. She believes that Netanyahu "torpedo the peace efforts." Elements the most right-wing Israeli coalition denounced the "betrayal" of their champion.
It is true that for the first time endorsing the idea of a future Palestinian state, the Likud leader initially sought to allay the fears of the international community. On the eve of an Association Council EU-Israel supposed to discuss the enhancement of economic relations with Israel, Bibi favorite calming jeu.Échaudée by war in Gaza, the Union has threatened to freeze strengthening its ties with Israel in order to influence the recovery process Peace.
is first to stop the deterioration of relations with the United States, that Netanyahu has agreed to soften. Obama, as his special envoy to the Middle East George Mitchell, had repeatedly called for an immediate freeze of settlement in Cisjordanie.Cette requirement is even more untenable for Bibi would deprive it ipso facto support the religious right, the mainstay of her coalition. Should we speak of open crisis with
Washington? In Bibi's entourage, some think Obama is ready to go to the incident under the influence of his closest adviser Rahm Emanuel, Ancestry Israel to push its policy of reconciliation with the world arabe.D others prefer to see in the Cairo speech a mere change of style.
"Tensions exist with the White House, but it is too early to talk of crisis," said Gerald Steinberg, Besa Israeli think tank. In the short term, it does not believe the U.S. sanctions: "For years, both countries have avoided talking about sensitive subjects, such as colonization, we now have the opportunity to do so."
This US-Israeli relationship is based on fundamentals that are far from exclusively related to the conflict with Palestiniens.Ainsi, Israel enjoys a yearly windfall of U.S. $ 3 billion (three-quarters going to buy American military hardware)!
The two allies have been periods of more acute cold - as Nixon, Carter, Reagan and Bush - who never led to "dropping". "Neither the U.S. nor Israel has an interest in entering into a logic of confrontation, says Eytan Gilboa, Besa. Jerusalem has too need American support in the Iranian issue. "Nevertheless 63% of Israelis say they are wary of Obama's policies. This one is accused of not taking into account "the logic of refusal" that characterizes Hamas and Fatah. "Since 1967, Palestinians have had on several occasions, the opportunity to build their state, and never succeeded: Do they really want? wonders Oded Eran, the INSS (Institute for National Security Studies) in Tel Aviv. They may be more comfortable not having a state synonymous with responsibilities and commitments. "
