Seymour Hersh: Obama helped end Israel's Gaza offensive
vruz:
Obama has shown numerous signs of being eager to change the equation in the Middle East. Even before his inauguration, Hersh notes,”the Obama transition team also helped persuade Israel to end the bombing of Gaza and to withdraw its ground troops.”
When former Vice President Dick Cheney learned that Obama had been putting pressure on the Israelis, he angrily disparaged him as “pro-Palestinian” and described him as someone who would “never make it in the major leagues.”
