So Mr barack Obama is going to give what is said to be “an important” speech in Egypt. He was then interviewed by the BBC, obviously to hype and promote the speech.
So there is scknowledgement that there are “misaprehensions from the West about the Muslim world, and there are mishaprehension from the Muslim world about the West”…
On Israel and Palestine – he say’s its too early in the conversation – seems to be taking the safe end for now, and not taking a major stand. Says what he thinks should be done, Israel says they will do the opposite and he says we still talking….we hope “talking” means they will be convinced…He also refused to comment of the possibility of any sanctions on Israel. Bush jumped the gun, is Obama Mr Safe?
To add to that he says he believes Iran has legitimate energy concerns with their nuclear programme…
Before judging – we wait for the speech…
OH 0 and he is currently reading the novel Netherland, by Joseph O’neill – Oneill..i know we have a few groupies out there lol
till next time – look out for Thursday’s speech
