Oh God, those pesty Palestinians again!

Pres. Obama’s {{{Brilliant!}}} presentation at the U.N. this morning did not fail to mention the Palestinian/Israeli saga.

It is my understanding one of the major stumbling blocks to the peace talks is Israel insisting “…the Palestinians must first except Israel’s right to exist.”

It seems the Palestinians are willing to accept Israel’s right to exist as of the 1968 borders but not its right to exist including all the land it conquered since then. In other words, Israel wants to have its existences verified after taken over significant (3/4th?) portions of Palestinian land and the Palestinians are saying, “No, no, no by my chinny, chin-chin! We don’t want you here, go back where you came from!"

And off we go into the wild UN Yonder (I/P)

Excerpt:
A senior U.S. administration source Tuesday told Haaretz that "during the tripartite meeting Obama strongly expressed his impatience."
The source said the meeting was "businesslike" but not cordial. Netanyahu and Abbas voiced their opinions but did not attack.
"The time has come to re-launch negotiations - without preconditions - that address the permanent-status issues: security for Israelis and Palestinians; borders, refugees and Jerusalem," Obama said in his first address to the world body since assuming office in January.
"The goal is clear: two states living side by side in peace and security - a Jewish State of Israel, with true security for all Israelis; and a viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that ends the occupation that began in 1967, and realizes the potential of the Palestinian people," Obama told the UN.

And
It is time the U.S. stepped into the breach that eight long years of Bushco. inattention or worse created. Palestinians need to know that America WILL support their national aspirations and that their participation at the bargaining table will be respected and rewarded.
