President Obama wants to give Palestine land that should be Palestine, and Israel has been steadily stealing Palestinian lands for years anyways. Anywho, I'm not sure how much it will affect next election. Zionist right-wingers will complain about it, but they weren't going to vote for him anyways. I'm personally glad the President doesn't feel the need to constantly support Israel in everything, although in general I don't think we should stick our nose in it too much.
