<HR style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #ffffff; COLOR: #ffffff" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->Report: Sarkozy calls Netanyahu 'liar'

<NOBR>Microphones</NOBR> accidently left on after G20 meeting <NOBR>pick up</NOBR> private
conversation between US, French presidents. Sarkozy admits he
'can't stand' Israeli premier. Obama: You're fed up with him? I
have to deal with him every day!


French President Nicolas Sarkozy reportedly told US President
Barack Obama that he could not "stand" Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu and that he thinks the Israeli premier "is a liar."


According to a Monday report in the French website "Arret sur
Images," after facing reporters for a G20 press conference on
Thursday, the two presidents retired to a private room, to
further discuss the matters of the day.


The conversation apparently began with President Obama
criticizing Sarkozy for not having warned him that France would
be voting in favor of the Palestinian membership <NOBR>bid</NOBR> in UNESCO
despite Washington's strong objection to the move.


The conversation then drifted to Netanyahu, at which time
Sarkozy declared: "I cannot stand him. He is a liar." According
to the report, Obama replied: "You're fed up with him, but I
have to deal with him every day!"

The remark was naturally meant to be said in confidence, but the
two leaders' microphones were accidently left on, making the
would-be private comment embarrassingly public.


The communication faux pas went unnoticed for several minutes,
during which the conversation between the two heads of state –
which quickly reverted to other matters – was all but open to
members the press, who were still in possession of headsets
provided by the Elysée for the sake of simultaneous translation
during the G20 press conference.


"By the time the (media) services at the Elysée realize it, it
was on for at least three minutes," one journalist told the
website. Still, he said that reporters "did not have a chance to
take advantage of this fluke."


The surprising lack of coverage may be explained by a report
alleging that journalists present at the event were requested to
sign an agreement to keep mum on the embarrassing comments. A
Reuters reporter was among the journalists present and can
confirm the veracity of the comments.


A member of the media confirmed Monday that "there were
discussions between journalists and they agreed not to publish
the comments due to the sensitivity of the issue."


He added that while it was annoying to have to refrain from
publishing the information, the journalists are subject to
precise rules of conduct.

What I find troubling is that this means that Obammy does in fact have some grasp of the obvious.

First solid sign I've seen of that.

 

I just thought that everyone should have an opportunity to see this before it is deleted as usual

 

obummer has made a career of opening his pie hole and inserting his big flat foot. Not a surprise.

Hey, obummer........

 

What the hell kind of reporting is that? Reporters should be tripping over, and stabbing eachother in the back just to get the news out. I guess they are too busy trying to find more women to claim a harrassment charge on Cain than they are about reporting the truth.

I guess I picked the wrong profession, because I sure would be reporting all the stuff that they are too embarassed, whimpy, or scared to print.

 

Our national embarrassment on the world stage.
