Mixed Israeli-Palestinian Reaction to White House Summit

By Adham Nemeh
This article is talking about how the Palestinians are happy because of the meeting which happened between President Barack Obama and their president Mahmoud Abbas. In this meeting President Obama showed Palestinian that that United States is supporting the creation of the Palestinian State. While he also condemned Jewish settlement expansion in the West Bank. Such a announcement would raise the tension between Israel and the United States sine Israel is refusing the idea of creating a Palestinian State. In addition this is would create a better relationship between the United States and Palestine, this way the government and people in Palestine would be able to trust the United State more unlikely when President Bush was leading. In general i believe this is the right solution because it helps to have a better peace in the area.
