To the Editor:
  Ambassador Oren is characteristically diplomatic in disclaiming any knowledge of the dynamic between PM Netanyahu and president Obama. A less circumspect observer would note that Netanyahu has condescended to our president from the first, as if his greater age earned him some deference in matters of policy.
   I would go further. Netanyahu seems furious that he hasn't been able to maneuver Obama into attacking Iran as he feels he maneuvered Bush into attacking Iraq.
