Amid talk of Obama peace push, Israel invokes his vow not to impose solution
Amid uncertainty over what Middle East steps US President Barack Obama may take in the twilight of his presidency, Jerusalem – according to government officials – expects him to stay true to what he said at the UN in 2011: “Peace will not come through statements and resolutions at the United Nations.”This issue was among those Prime Minister Benjamin discussed at his home in Caesarea on Sunday with a blue-ribbon, bipartisan delegation of high-ranking former national security officials. The visit comes amid speculation of what Obama has planned for the Middle East in the twomonth interregnum between the elections on November 8 and when he formally leaves office on January 20.
