Obama says Mideast peace moment 'must be seized'

"The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a constant source of grievance and unrest among Muslims..."

Yup. This is true. But meanwhile Muslims are becoming a constant source of grievance and unrest for the rest of the world. It seems almost anything can be a grievance to Muslims these days. Opposition head scarves, not having a special place to wash their feet, Dutch cartoons they don’t like, opposition to a mosque at Ground Zero; if we don’t agree, we are all Islamaphobic. Muslims, grow up! Stop hating everyone who doesnt agree with you; stop being so infantile!

Obama's doing what he can do and I'm hoping for some progress. <:-)

Obama is doing it to make a name for himself.

Years of mistrust will not disappear overnight.”

Years, yes. At least 2 or 3 years. Obama is so brilliant.

The peaced moment is seized, Mr President. It's as seized as an old engine left out in the rain since 1967.

Obama is doing it to make a name for himself.

Of course, every American politician is only in it to make a name for themselves. God forbid that there be anyone who would actually WANT to fix things that are wrong in the world. Where would the world be if we had politicians who actually tried to improve things. What a horrible thought. I'm sure we all hope he fails miserably in this so the conflict can continue on and countless lives will continue to be lost. It would be a small price to pay to ensure Obama goes down in the history books as a complete failure...

Seriously, folks, do you not even care about fixing this conflict? Or are you only worried about how bad this would look on you and your set in stone views if anything good actually come out of it? Talked about mixed up priorities. No wonder the US political system is in such a mess at the moment.

"The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a constant source of grievance and unrest among Muslims..."

Yup. This is true. But meanwhile Jews are becoming a constant source of grievance and unrest for the rest of the world. It seems almost anything can be a grievance to Jews these days. Christmas trees, head scarves, Iranian cartoons they don’t like; if we don’t agree, we are all Antisemitic. Jews, grow up! Stop hating everyone who doesnt agree with you; stop being so infantile!

Good luck Mr. President. Many have tried...unsuccessfully. My best to you in this endeavor.
