>>Clinton sends tough message to Israel, complain bluntly about Israel's announcement this week of new housing settlements in East Jerusalem. >>Well, after taking on the Brits taking on the Israelis... Looks like Obama administration gets teeth. The VPs visit was to pass the message, to the Israeli public and government: "Israel, we have got your back no matter what" to soften them up for more concessions, like say, giving up gaza, (we have all seen where that went). One of Netenyahu's right wing coalition party allies has the housing ministry, and their objective (probably without Netenyahu or his parties knowledge) was to rip the icing and sugar off of all that feel good stuff, and reveal the reality below. The reality is that Obamas negotiating tactics are much harder on his "friends" than his enemies. Which one would think, would tend to shorten the list of his future and present friends. An international friend of Obama appears to be a dangerous position to take.
