June 8, Update
Barack Obama's recent speech in Egypt got praises from Arabs and Muslims who listened to an American president acknowledge the humiliation and suffering of the Palestinian people. But I feel one of the major points he missed out on, was the role of the US in funding trillions of dollars for the Israeli military and occupation of Palestinian lands. However, he DID continue to mention the role of new Israeli settlements in blocking an everlasting peace settlement - which is key.

What do you think of Obama's speech and potential to bring peace to Israel-Palestine? Is the Obama administration's influence strong enough to change the status quo in Israel-Palestine? Or does AIPAC and the neoconservative movement reign supreme?
