Natasha Mozgavaya, Haaretz Correspondent and Haaretz Service: Israel pledges to work with U.S. for Mideast peace
Talkback
Title: Great speech, but sounds like a slap in the face to Lieberman Name: American in NY City: State:
"That is a goal shared by Palestinians, Israelis, and people of good will around the world. That is a goal that the parties agreed to in the road map and at Annapolis," he said, referring to a 2007 U.S.-hosted regional peace summit. "And that is a goal that I will actively pursue as president."-Obama I am willing to bet that Israel made some commitment to America regarding te Annapolis meeting. But the best comment was * I also want to be clear that America`s relationship with the Muslim world cannot and will not be based on opposition to Al-Qaida.* - Obama. Terrific statement putting things in proper perspective.
