US Expected To Tell Israel: Divide The Land

Differing two-state solutions coming from Obama, Bibi by Bridget Johnson , The Hill.com

On Monday, both President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will bring their respective plans for a two-state Mideast solution to the table – but the devil will be in the details.

Obama is pressing hard to quickly restart the Middle East peace process, placing his first call from the Oval Office to Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in January. “Obama promised that he'll continue efforts to push the peace process forward in order to arrive at a two-state solution,” the Palestinian Authority said in a statement after the conversation.

"...For Israel to get the kind of strong support it is looking for vis-a-vis Iran, it can't stay on the sidelines with respect to the Palestinians and the peace efforts," Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said last month.
