Obama to address AIPAC on Sunday

[oberliner]

In a week filled with Middle East activity, President Obama just added another event: A Sunday speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Obama will "stress the importance of the U.S.-Israeli relationship," said White House spokesman Jay Carney, describing that partnership as an "unshakable bond."

The AIPAC speech caps a week in which Obama gives a major address on the Middle East on Thursday, meets with Jordan's King Abdullah II on Tuesday, and meets with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday.

1. I would rather

hear him give a major address on the plight of the American people right now!
I guess everything is going so well here, that would not seem necessary though.

2. I'm sure this is not the only address he is giving

I do think it's important for him to talk about Middle East peace and the US role in helping make that a reality.

3. On the list of pressing issues, fellating Isreal would have to be far down on the list.

But I guess those campaign contributions need to come quick and steady.

4. Cha-ching!

You are 100% correct.

5. Alternatively - giving an important policy speech about Middle East peace might be a good idea

Especially considering that the Palestinians are planning to declare statehood in September.

I think it will help all concerned to know exactly what the US position is at this point with respect to regional developments.

6. K&R!

7. Well ...this is good since Hillary announces she's picking Cheney War Deputy to replace P.J. Crowley

It's all good. War is Good. We are remaking the Middle East according to AIPAC and NeoCon's List of "Countries to Do."

It is ...what it is...
