'US may reduce Israel support in UN'
The Obama administration is considering reducing its support for Israel in the UN if Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu does not agree to freeze settlement construction, US officials were quoted by the New York Times as saying.

According to Monday's report, measures being considered include refraining from the Security Council veto of United Nations resolutions that Israel opposes and making use of President Barack Obama's "bully pulpit" to criticize the settlements.

The officials stressed, however, that setting conditions for loan guarantees to Israel was not under discussion.

"There are things that could get the attention of the Israeli public," a senior administration official said.
The sort of things that might cause the Israeli public to dig in rather than cave ...
May the not-quite-bastard's entrails continually feel the pain of the coals handed out so liberally by the god he is serving by his actions, if not by his actual faith. Oh, and the Israeli public will notice when America does not veto nasty crap resolutions and when President Obama spouts the usual anti-Zionist rhetoric from his bully pulpit.
