My Way News - Prodding Israel, Obama embraces Palestine borders
My Way News reports: "Exasperated by stalled Middle East peace talks in a season of tumultuous change, President Barack Obama jolted close ally Israel Thursday by embracing the Palestinians' terms for drawing the borders of their new nation next door. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel rejected the idea as 'indefensible' on the eve of his vital White House meeting with Obama."

Comment: This is a very unfortunate development. Someone needs to explain the concept of "strategic depth" to the president who has never visited the tiny state of Israel and obviously fails to appreciate just how little land there is to give away to those nice peace-loving Palestinians.
