My early reaction to Bibi's big speech today - which I regret to say was broadcast on exactly zero stations in the US, from what I can tell - is that Obama's approach to the Palestinian question has scored a minor victory. For Bibi to declare publicly his backing of a demilitarized Palestinian state is a credit to Obama's early pressure on him to be proactive (he has never done so in the past). When I find a transcript of the speech I will post it, or post a link on the comments if you know where one is.
Its been a very eventful weekend, and the coverage in the US has been abysmal. I think people are unsure of what to make of all the news and are letting the dust settle. Additionally Iran has largely put the clamp down on information flowing in and out of the country.
