Israel's top newspaper: An Obama endorsement?

[fanfan0711]

" Obama continued this two-way track vis-a-vis Iran and the issue of Palestinian statehood. Under his pressure, Israel suspended for the first time - for a while - construction in the settlements. Relations between the two countries' armed forces have never been so close. Obama's challenge in his second term, if he wins the elections, is to lead the region to a stable arrangement of peace and security.

The outcome of the elections will be determined by the voters' decision as to which of the two candidates is good for America. But if any of them are vacillating in their vote over whether Obama has been a good president for Israel, the answer is yes."

political class.

4. Nope, that would probably be Yedioth Ahronoth.

Ha'aretz is to Israel what the Guardian is to the UK.

5. That's a good analogy.
