I was happy to see Obama finally go over the hump, but rather disappointed to see him addressing AIPAC immediately following. If Obama represents change, it has to come from the top. He has to stop America being held hostage to the Israeli lobby. How can we have change when the arms industry and Israel form our foreign policy? How can we have change when Obama, too, is now threatening Iran? When Israel possesses more than fifty nuclear bombs and is capable of vaporizing Iran in a day, why is it ncessary for Obama to genuflect to the lobby? Change means change, but is Obama going to be just another politician? Say one thing but go back to business as usual? I sure hope not, but once again I fear the worst.
