Obama's Foreign Policy Speech Won't Focus on Israeli-Palestinian Peace Talks
(Wall Street Journal) Laura Meckler - President Obama's major policy address on the Mideast Thursday won't include an extensive section on peace negotiations, and the president doesn't intend the address as a launching pad for a new round of talks, a senior administration official said. Rather, the speech will focus on the Arab Spring uprisings. Mr. Obama sits down at the White House on Tuesday with King Abdullah of Jordan and on Friday with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu.
