US President-elect Barack Obama is planning to base his peacemaking efforts in the Middle East on the 2002 Arab Peace Initiative, The Sunday Times reported on Sunday, quoting sources close to Obama.
The Arab Peace Initiative, based on the Saudi peace plan of February 2002, calls for a full Israeli withdrawal from all territories taken in the Six Day War, including east Jerusalem, in exchange for normalizing ties with the Arab world.
AT AIPAC, OBAMA SAID THAT JERUSALEM SHOULD NEVER BE DIVIDED.THE NEXT DAY, HE "CORRECTED" HIMSELF AND SAID IT SHOULD BE LEFT UP TO THE PARTIES.
NOW, OBAMA IS COMING OUT SQUARELY ON THE SIDE OF THE ARABS.
NOW, HE'S EXPOSING HIMSELF FOR WHAT HE TRULY IS: A LYING, PRO-ARAB ANTISEMITIC ANTI-ZIONIST.
THE ELECTION OF BIBI MIGHT THWART BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA'S PLAN, THOUGH:
Opposition leader Binyamin Netanyahu pledged on Sunday to continue talks with the Palestinians if elected prime minister, saying he would base such talks on economic development.MORE FROM BIBI:
Speaking at the Jewish Agency's General Assembly, Netanyahu said a government under his leadership would work to boost the Palestinian economy as a springboard for - and alongside - diplomatic talks.
"We need to make peace from the bottom up, rather than the top down, by improving the lives of Palestinians so that they have a stake in peace," he said.
The Likud leader called on the government to lower taxes and invest in transportation infrastructure, such as roads and railroads, to avoid a further economic slide.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat, meanwhile, said Netanyahu's approach would destroy peacemaking because the US-sponsored talks that began last year are designed to achieve a treaty on all outstanding issues between Israel and the Palestinians.
"The time to speak about economics and fragmentation is over," Erekat fumed. "It seems to me that if Mr. Netanyahu thinks this is the course, he is closing the door to any chance for peace."
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat on Sunday accused opposition leader and Likud Chairman Benjamin Netanyahu of "closing the door to any chance for peace," by insisting that regional talks focus on economic, rather than territorial issues. Netanyahu says he supports the concept of a separate Palestinian state, but opposes the current U.S.-sponsored peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians. He takes a hard line against ceding war-won territory and opposes partitioning Jerusalem, key Palestinian demands, and thinks talks should focus on economic matters.
- BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA WILL BECOME PRESIDENT OBAMA IN JANUARY.
- BIBI WILL BECOME PM IN APRIL.
- THIS MEANS OBAMA WILL HAVE A FEW MONTHS TO MAKE A DEAL WITH OLMERT/LIVNI.
- IF THAT FAILS, THEN EXPECT OBAMA TO TURN THE HEAT UP ON BIBI AND ISRAEL.

Obama to adopt Saudi plan, ram home Israel-Arab peace deal
US President-elect Barack Obama intends to start his presidency with a bang by rapidly concluding an Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement based on the 2002 Saudi peace proposal.
That according to sources close to Obama who spoke to London's Sunday Times.
Advisors to the president-elect said they had convinced him to give the Israeli-Palestinian peace process top billing during his first year in office, as the enormous goodwill he currently enjoys will make it easier to oversee a final status agreement.
They also say that getting the Israelis and Palestinians to sign a peace deal would dramatically and instantaneously transform the mood across the region, bolstering friendly regimes and isolating extremists and the current Iranian regime.
The Times article indicated that Obama was more open to the idea of hitting the ground running on the Saudi initiative after both Israeli President Shimon Peres and Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni reiterated their support for the proposal.
During his visit to Israel last summer, Obama's advisors said that he privately told the Palestinians that Israel would be "crazy" not to accept the Saudi plan, which offers the Jewish state broad acceptance in the region in exchange for surrendering 100 percent of the eastern half of Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the Golan Heights.
If Livni wins Israel's upcoming general election Obama is likely to find in her the partner he needs to get a deal based on the Saudi proposal signed by both sides.
UNQUOTE. REPEAT:
If Livni wins Israel's upcoming general election Obama is likely to find in her the partner he needs to get a deal based on the Saudi proposal signed by both sides.
OLMERT AND LIVNI WOULD GIVE UP HALF OF JERUSALEM.
IN FACT:::::::
LIVNI'S WILLINGNESS TO CEDE HALF OF JERUSALEM IS EXACTLY WHY THE SHAS PARTY REFUSED JOIN A GOVERNMENT LED BY HER AND IT IS EXACTLY WHY SHE FAILED TO BECOME PM.
REPEAT:::::::

And, it appears the elections are on Feb. 10th. In that case, all Obama has to do is wait until after the Israeli elections to open his mouth, and he'll probably be home free.
Abomination of Desolation.
ELECTIONS ARE ONE THING AND FORMING A GOVERNMENT ANOTHER.
UNLESS BIBI SWEEPS IN - WHICH IS UNLIKELY.
IT IS LIKELY HE WILL WIN, BUT NOT ENOUGH TO GOVERN WITHOUT A COALITION.
AFTER THAT, NEITHER OBAMA OR ISRAEL IS "HOME FREE".
OBAMA WILL PUT EXTRAORDINARY PRESSURE ON ISRAEL: ISOLATE ISRAEL - THIS IS WHAT THE FOLKS WHO BELIEVE IN "THE ISRAEL LOBBY" THINK IS NECESSARY.
THEY ARGUE THAT THE USA HAS BEEN BIASED TOWARD ISRAEL FOR NO GOOD REASON AND THAT THIS HAS ALLO0WED ISRAEL TO BLOCK PEACE.
SO OBAMA AND MALLEY/ZBIG/POWERS/CROWD WILL PRESSURE/ISOLATE ISRAEL.
AND SIDE WITH THE ARABS.EU/UN.
WAIT AND SEE...
AMERICAN JEWS WHO VOTED FOR OBAMA ARE TO BLAME. THEY MIGHT AS WELL HAVE VOTED FOR ARAFAT.
That is a moronic comment. At the moment it is based solely on speculation about what might happen and not on fact.
If it doesn't happen do we just chalk it up to the rantings of paranoid fantasy or the benefit of divine providence.
In the end the world can say a lot of things but it doesn't mean that any of them will happen.
jack;
FACT: obama's church LOVES farrakhan and hamas.
FACT: obama lied about jerusalme during the campaign.
nuff said.
