Obama started the settlement row. He made the Cairo speech. Anybody here thinking he did not foresee Bibi and Lieberman opening the box of tricks as happened with Clinton and Bush? Anybody here thinking he is going to screw his credibility, standing, authority, and make a complete clown of himself in the eyes of the world for Israel`s sake? Anybody here thinking he did not do the counting on votes in Congress if the time comes? Obama listened to Bibi`s speech, took out a positive thing (Bibi renouncing Judea and Samaria by saying WB is for future Pal state),ignored the `natural growth` trick and now we are back at where we were, the setllement row. Anybody here thinking he has no plan how to proceed? Remember how he took out Hillary in the elections and conquered red hot states on McCain to turn blue.
