My Way News - Obama envoy in uphill struggle for Mideast peace

My Way News reports: "President Barack Obama's Mideast envoy finds himself increasingly hamstrung, with Israel's foreign minister on Thursday all but ruling out a peace deal for years to come and the Palestinian leader weakened by his decision not to push for a Gaza war crimes tribunal against Israel."

Comment: It's over. All the momentum that Obama's election generated toward a Middle East peace agreement has dissipated. The political, economic and military conditions on the ground simply won't permit it at this time.
