Obama's Mideast Peace Talks

This is the most contentious problem facing the world today. If there ever is a world War III the Middle East is where it will start. This nation has no actual power over what takes place between Isreal and it's neighbors, but this nation does have power over the money flowing into Isreal and most of the money going into Gaza and the West bank. It has occured to me that this problem cannot be solved with the barrel of a gun. Hamas was Democratically elected, because of the abuse at the end of Isreali guns. We must put pressure on Isreal to halt all settlement construction, and we must put pressure on the palistinians to elect moderate Muslim leaders if the peace process is to grow from an embrionic stage into adulthood.
