The Obama White House is still ticked about Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech to Congress earlier this week, and it shows:

Interesting take from @FareedZakaria on why PM Netanyahu's predictions on #Iran have been wrong for 25 years http://t.co/SHffz3GPOj

First off, the author of the article has had troubles in his professional past, as these tweeters noted:

@NSCPress really? You link to @FareedZakaria the plagiarist?

So sad to see @NSCPress using the clown plagiarist= @FareedZakaria stand to defend their failed policies on #Iran & its nuclear program

@NSCPress you're quoting @FareedZakaria ……the plagiarist….???? Really.

Why is the Obama administration sharing this dreck from a serial plagiarist like Fareed? Pathetic.@NSCPress @FareedZakaria
— Ted (@TBillsss) March 6, 2015

Why? Because any opportunity to express their bitterness is obviously welcome.

@NSCPress I think @Netanyahu is rightfully concerned. #Iran calls for the annihilation of his people. We must take these threats seriously.

Yeah, that passive-aggressive phrasing is really the cherry on top RT @johnson: "Interesting take" https://t.co/qKRouCgbOx

@NSCPress @FareedZakaria give Zakaria access to WH, have him repeat WH talking points, then cite his op-ed as authoritative. just shameless

@NSCPress The more you guys bash the State of Israel, the more Im inclined 2 believe the WH is allying itself w state sponser of terror.
