1. Tzipi Livni at AIPAC:
The two main obstacles facing Israel right now Livni said, are the looming vote at the United Nations on Palestinian statehood this September and the recent reconciliation between rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas.
“There is still time to change them both”, she said. “September could be just another month of the year. I was glad to see the U.S. president taking an initiative to prevent the unilateral steps. Launching the negotiations process will postpone September and maybe even produce some success. We could rally the world to our fight against the terror and delegitimize Hamas”.
2. The news today oh boy:
Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad suffered a heart attack on Monday while in the United States for his son’s college graduation.
