Why didn't Obama go to Paris and march with the other world leaders to show WE are against Islamic terrorism..as a nation. Why is he not receiving Netanyahu in March? He seems more angry and defiant by the day.

At least 100 years from now that is probably what will be written in history books.
It's a long standing practice for any President not to see heads of state or candidates when the time is close to their election. This avoids the appearance of influencing a democratic election in a foreign country. Israel's election is just two weeks later.
