Obama promises 'Palestinians' won't get a free pass
US President Barack Obama told Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu during their meeting this week, that he would "push Palestinians" to match any Israeli concessions made in the peace talks, AFP reported Tuesday, quoting a senior Obama administration official.
"It's not as though the Palestinians are going to get a pass," the official said.
The official told AFP that the talks between the leaders "were not as contentious as some previous encounters between the two men."What could go wrong?

A much better idea would be to not "push" either side to do something they have no interest in doing, and for good reasons.
"I consider it part of my responsibility as President of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear."
- Barack Obama
