Last weekend, Benjamin Netanyahu’s autobiographical book “Bibi: The Story of My Life”
went on sale.
Israeli details write that Netanyahu shares not the most pleasant memories of the first meeting with US President Barack Obama. In 2011, he made a program of resolving the Palestinian-Israeli crisis, in the framework of which Israel was supposed to evacuate settlements from the west coast and return to the borders of 1967.
Netanyahu tried to tell the American president that his requirements are erroneous and incorrect from both the ethical and practical side. “I repeated that the root of the conflict between us and the Palestinians is not a settlement, but the consistent refusal of the Palestinian side of the recognition of the Jewish state. I added that the expulsion of a quarter of a million people from their houses is an impossible and unfair thing.”

“My words were left without attention, – writes Netanyahu.” Obama repeated his demands and to dispel my doubts when we were about to leave the oval office, said: “You know, people often underestimate me. But I come from Chicago, where I had to deal with strong rivals. Then he added another phrase of a threatening nature and it shocked me – it did not fit so with his image. “
