Will President McDreamy's most memorable achievement be turning decades of U.S. foreign policy inside out?
-- WASHINGTON -- President Barack Obama is endorsing the Palestinians' demand for their future state to be based on the borders that existed before the 1967 Middle East war, in a move that will likely infuriate Israel.
But, heck, never mind those war-mongering Israelis... Barry's obviously got their number. Let's ask a Palestinian Member of Parliament...
Hamas MP and Cleric Yunis Al-Astal:
"In just a few years, all the Zionists and the settlers will realize that their arrival in Palestine was for the purpose of the great massacre, by means of which Allah wants to relieve humanity of their evil."
These are the folks the Car Salesman-in-Chief wants to cosy up to?

Seriously?

Compounding the problem, Mr. Netanyahu delivered a fiery speech to a pro-Israel lobbying group in Washington declaring that “Jerusalem isn’t a settlement, it’s our capital.”

A furious White House promptly denied him all the trappings of a presidential meeting with Mr. Obama the next day, refusing to allow photographers to take pictures of the two men in the Oval Office, as is usually the case for meetings with foreign leaders.

LAST WORD: Meet Barack's special friends
Ayah's remains were discovered in a well barely three kilometers (about two miles) from her family home. Police had been alerted to the scene by a shepherd who had wanted to fetch water from the well and been overwhelmed by a dreadful smell.
