The alleged Obama Letter reported by Haaretz is quite an interesting development especially as the Republicans are poised to take power in Congress.   It has been quite a week in US Political Circles.     This is as Jerusalem has seen a spate of attacks and the Israeli Prime Minister is working feverishly to calm tensions by assuring King Abdullah of Jordan that the status of the Temple Mount will not Change

What is further interesting is what the Israeli Foreign Minister has said on Right Wing Israeli Politicians provoking further tensions as he : "  berated right-wing politicians for exploiting tensions in Jerusalem, telling Israel Radio on Thursday that Israeli ministers and MKs visiting the Temple Mount was "idiocy" and was driven by "cheap headline seeking."   It is worth noting here as Mr. Lieberman has been at the forefront of stoking of the very tensions during his zealous advocacy of more harsh action during Israeli Operations in Gaza that has ended up costing Israel some $ 2 Billion in direct costs alone. 


 Ever so challenging times as we here @ #Outsiders continue to assess the post-election landscape in the US and its' implications for the World....
