Tell us something we don't know. Undermining this Presidency with outright lies and pandering to the worst element of their party is a GOP staple. Israel recognizes the lie or is likely trying to calm the furor over this debacle, as it seems the speech will go on as planned anyway. I guess Israel is fine being lied to?

"It appears that the speaker of Congress made a move, in which we trusted, but which it ultimately became clear was a one sided move and not a move by both sides," Deputy Israeli Foreign Minister Tzachi Hanegbi told 102 FM Tel Aviv Radio on Friday.
The interviewer asked if that meant Netanyahu had been "misled" into believing Boehner's invitation was bipartisan, a characterization Hanegbi did not contest.
Asked whether the prime minister should cancel or postpone the speech, Hanegbi said: "What would the outcome be then? The outcome would be that we forsake an arena in which there is a going to be a very dramatic decision (on Iran)."
