Finally: Obama calls Netanyahu

PM Netanyahu received a telephone call from President Obama who extended his heartfelt condolences on the passing of his father.Anyone else have the feeling that Obama was dragged into doing so kicking and screaming?
Something tells me that Ben Zion Netanyahu z"l (of blessed memory) would not have been impressed.
UPDATE 6:59 PM
Here's the official White House statement.
President Obama called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel today from Air Force One to express his personal condolences on the death of his father, Benzion Netanyahu. In the call the President noted Benzion Netanyahu’s remarkable legacy of service to the Jewish people and deep friendship with the United States.And here's the acknowledgment from the Prime Minister's office.
