i really hope this works!

president barack obama joins eight predecessors (including clinton and w), in bringing together the leaders of israel and palestine to try to work things out. peace talks between israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu and palestinian president mahmoud abbas will begin today.

previous negotiations between these two nations have failed every other time they've been attempted. so don't get your hopes up too high. but i think if anyone can pull it off, it's barack motherfucking obama.

i'll be crossin' mah fingers!
