The views shared on The Mideast Peace Pulse are those of the author(s) and not those of Israel Policy Forum.

IPF Letter in The New York Times

In Meeting, A Chance for A Regional Approach

Today, President Barack Obama meets with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after weeks of speculation about how the two countries will address the threat of Iran potentially obtaining nuclear weapons, and with little expectation for progress on Israeli-Palestinian peacemaking.  However, the Iranian threat – coupled with the historic changes of governments across the Middle East – could actually serve as a strategic opportunity for these leaders to address Iran while advancing regional democratic efforts alongside Israeli-Palestinian peace.

Israel Policy Forum applauds President Barack Obama’s commitment to Israel’s security outlined in his address to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Shocking New Developments on AIPAC Case

The authoritative Congressional Quarterly has some big news on the AIPAC case and alleged Congressional efforts to block it.

See Josh Marshall's analysis and follow links to the CQ piece.
