#4 well, Obama cant do anything till Jan 20. At that time he will meet with his advisers and sell out the only free democracy in the region to a group of despotic thugs thereby firmly grasping defeat from the jaws of victory.

#8 It's aggrevating that those who complain about America's overabundance of influence refuse to take constructive action on their won. Let Hugo Chavez take a crack at making a Middle East peace initiative.
