I like everything that Obama is doing so far and remain extremely skeptical about Israel. All information seems to confirm that he intends to continue the "Road Map". That of course is bad news, the Map will only lead to a 2 state solution. That would be an anathema to Israel and for Jews worldwide.
Obama is certainly a very educated and intelligent man.
He suffers and benefits from the Racism he has seen and the Racism he has heard about. How will that effect him and his actions? I am sure that Obama understands the propaganda created "Palestinians". He must already understand the dynamics of ME politics.
Will Obamas lack of foreign policy experience work in Israel's favor or does he just want to end the conflict at all costs to save lives.
He said in his Inaugural address that the US would not compromise it's values to gain expediency on any issue. Hopefully this would extend to Israel not having to compromise for no reason other than to speed up whatever process Obama will pursue.
I can't believe that he will blindly follow George Bush's Road Map that has failed so miserably already.
