Israeli Pundits Pan Netanyahu's US Trip

Netanyahu's poll numbers, however, increased slightly following the visit. Here in the US, the dustup seems to have hurt President Obama; yesterday, a top Jewish donor told CNBC that he wouldn’t be donating to Obama’s campaign because of it, Commentary reports. "I’m very perplexed as to why the president, who’s been to Cairo, to Saudi Arabia, to Turkey, has not made a stop in Israel and spoken to the Israeli people," billionaire financier Haim Saban said. Commentary notes that more Jewish donors are likely to follow Saban out the door.
