Barack Arafat Obama out on the surprise trail
 By Judi McLeod Full Story
imageElected President to retrieve the United States of America from the supposed evil jaws of George Bush and Dick Cheney as America’s historic first black president, Barack Obama works instead on tinkering with the map of the Middle East.
“President Barack Obama is endorsing the Palestinian’s demand for their future state to be based on the borders that existed before the 1967 Middle East war, in a move that will likely infuriate Israel.  Israel says the borders of a Palestinian state have to be determined through negotiations.”  (The Blaze, May 19, 2011).
In a steal-the-limelight strategy, Obama today sided with the Palestinians’ opening position—just one day ahead of a visit to Washington by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
