Dear President Barack H. Obama,

We , the undersigned, are signing this Petition to voice our outrage and dismay  that you have more respect for enemies of the United States than allies like the State of Israel as you have shown repeatedly throughout your presidency.

On March 23rd, 2010, you met with Israeli Prime-Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House. Unfortunately, you treated Mr. Netanyahu in a disrespectful manner.

It is customary for the President of the United States to hold a joint press conference with the visiting head of state, to permit the media to take photographs, and to offer a statement of what was discussed in the meeting.

In an act which can only be explained as a snub, you prevented the media from taking any photographs, required that your meeting with Mr. Netanyahu be closed to the press, offered no statement about what was discussed in the meeting, and left the Prime-minister and his entourage in the White House while you went to dinner with your family.

This is certainly not a way to treat one of America's best friends in the world.

Instead of weakening Israel for building homes in a Jewish neighborhood, we call on you and your administration to utilize more energy in confronting Iran to prevent a nuclear Holocaust.

Thank you for your time.

I am honestly a bit overwhelmed that five hundred people have signed this. This momentum is entirely yours and it shows how many people care deeply about this relationship. I never imagined this would reach so many people.

I am honestly stunned to see that one hundred people have signed this. It is truly humbling that so many of you care this much and I am just the one who put the words down on the page.

I am truly humbled by how many of you have stopped to add your names to this request. People keep messaging me with their own concerns about these diplomatic slights and it is clear that I am only echoing what so many of you have felt for a long time.
