Amid much international applause, Barack Obama is resuming the quest for a Middle East settlement. On Monday the president will receive Netanyahu at the White House. Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian leader and Hosni Mubarak, the Egyptian president, are due the following week. Early next month, Obama will speak to the Arab, and Muslim, world from a podium in Cairo. If all goes to plan - and this being the Middle East it is a very big if - a peace conference could follow.
The administration is not contemplating a tortuous process stretching through Obamas presidency. As Susan Rice, the US ambassador to the United Nations, puts it, instead of drawn-out talks, it is looking for real results....Ms Rice indicated that the US wants to reinvigorate proceedings of the Quartet - the group comprising the US, Russia, the UN and European Union....she added that the intention was to integrate into the process the Saudi-sponsored Arab Peace Initiative

"The louder he proclaimed his honor the faster we counted the spoons"
Can’t 0be just issue a TOTUS proclamation declaring the ME issues closed over within a year, similar to the “closing” of Gitmo?
“over” —> “”
Arrogant, ignorant dreamer.
Israel ain't Chrysler, and won't buckle because they simply cannot. The Obamination has never seen films of his starved and tortured relatives being bulldozed into mass graves, nor some whose skin was made into lampshades or many with numbers tattooed into their arms and horror imprinted forever on their minds. He hasn't a fooking clue about the mindset of the Arabs. This is a case of an mmoveable object vs. an irresistable force.
So where the amateur-in-chief thinks he'll get a peace treaty from I don't know. Putz.
While some “joke” about it - IMHO obama does in reality suffer from a “messiah” complex...
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Obama, Brown, the E.U., U.N. and the rest of the neo-Marxists are still in livid Bibi & the Likud are indeed the Israeli government, and not the appeasing collection of crooked defeated one’s from Kadima & Labour.
