This means the Palestinians could control both Israel and the Palestinian state, and, in effect, this would be a single state solution in which Israel disappears which is exactly what Palestinian maps show. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;But, if Fatah and Hamas join forces the whole situation will change and make Obama's strategy, if his approach can be called a strategy, completely pointess. &amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It seems the US is abandoning the only democratic country in the Middle East and opening the door to a possible nuclear war with worldwide consequences.</description></item><item><title>Obama agenda: Cyber czar, health care</title><link>http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2009/05/29/1947059.aspx#1947259</link><pubDate>Fri, 29 May 2009 15:05:31 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">8a5d2dbc-a0e4-4c7a-979f-3188051f228e:1947259</guid><dc:creator>St. Eleutherius of Nicomedia</dc:creator><description>Very surprising.
