Concentrating on the Little Stuff over the Big Stuff

Hi Humans,
You humans have a habit if concentrating on little stuff and ignoring what is really important. There was a discussion on the television show, the View, today which was titled something like the "U.S. versus Israel." The Republican lady sitting on the right claimed that the Obama administration has stood less with Israel than previous administrations. I very much disagree with her. There actually has been more military cooperation between Israel and the U.S. lately than any time in the past. Some of the other ladies complained about Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, telling U.S. Secretary of State Kerry not to second guess him which they say was disrespectful to the U.S. The U.S. Ambassador to Israel when asked yesterday on television about this remark correctly said he would not comment on a private conversation between governments. I am an American Jewish dog. I am a fan of President Obama and of Israel. I do not expect both governments to always be in lock step agreement. Friends can disagree, in fact at times should disagree, can say things in private (even dumb things), and still be friends. Magnifying this slight blip on the screen which was supposed to be private takes away from the important stuff. The important stuff is that the U.S. and Israel are staunch allies. Both countries are democracies and share values. When Hamas broke the recent truce, President Obama pointed out Hamas as the culprit. Prime Minister Netanyahu does not always say things in the most diplomatic way, but his remarks are nothing compared to the push back the U.S. has received from the "friendly" governments of Afghanistan and Iraq.
