WASHINGTON - US President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu met Tuesday in the White House.
In a break with custom that seemed linked to the crisis complicating US-Israeli relations Obama and Netanyahu initially conferred for about 90 minutes in the Oval Office.
Then Netanyahu refused to leave.
Netanyahu ordered Obama to retire to his residence while Netanyahu stayed behind in the White House and called his staff to a meeting in the Roosevelt Room, a White House official said late Tuesday.
Netanyahu then ordered Obama back from his residence for a second meeting, said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Netanyahu said he would not leave the White House until he got the bunker busting bombs he wanted and $80 billion of US taxpayers money..
Obama finally agreed just to get rid of him.
