Still, the fury is telling. It reminds, as if we could forget, that everything is always about Obama.
At the very least, it is a signal to the world that America is not Obama and Obama is not American...
You know, that's probably why this is being met with so much drama: America is rejecting him. Openly.

“He spat in our face publicly, and that’s no way to behave,” one Obama aide told an Israeli newspaper. “Netanyahu ought to remember that President Obama has a year and a half left to his presidency, and that there will be a price.”

I think you are correct, Sanguine. He's never had "the people" openly laughing in his face before, and he's not taking it well with his thin skin. I predict he's going to get a lot worse before this is over, because that kind of laughing is contagious.
I also predict this will be Hillary!'s downfall as well, she has very thin skin. As a politician she's 180 degrees opposite her husband, and she won't take a word of advice from him, assuming it's proffered (they do hate each other with a passion). All we need to do is start a laughing campaign and she'll fold up like a cheap suit.
"During Barack Obama's recent State of the Union speech, he told America he had no more campaigns to run. But it seems that statement flies in the face of reports that an organization known as “One Voice” has brought in what has been called a "five-man Obama team" to defeat Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Included in that five-man team is Jeremy Bird, the national field director for Obama's 2012 campaign, Dr. Aaron Lerner, Director of the Independent Media Review and Analysis, said Monday, citing a report at Haaretz. ....
"And Obama, of course believes in protocol and propriety which is why he won't get involved," she wrote on Facebook. "No, he's not getting involved at all. He's just sending his 2012 field campaign manager to Israel to run a campaign to defeat Netanyahu. That's all. No interference whatsoever."
News of the team's arrival in Israel comes just days after the administration accused House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, of “breaking protocol” by inviting Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress. It's not the first time Obama operatives have actively worked to undermine and unseat foreign leaders it doesn't like, Breitbart said Monday..."
