Obama made a strong call for renewed efforts to reach a Middle East agreement that creates a secure Israel and an independent Palestinian state.

"The time has come to relaunch negotiations -- without preconditions -- that address the permanent-status issues: security for Israelis and Palestinians; borders, refugees and Jerusalem," he said. "The goal is clear: two states living side by side in peace and security -- a Jewish state of Israel, with true security for all Israelis; and a viable, independent Palestinian state with contiguous territory that ends the occupation that began in 1967, and realizes the potential of the Palestinian people."

His statement prompted applause, and Obama received an ovation when he later stated: "The United States does Israel no favors when we fail to couple an unwavering commitment to its security with an insistence that Israel respect the legitimate claims and rights of the Palestinians.

应该是Obama在联大关于巴以问题的发言吧：

The United States does Israel no favors when we fail to couple an unwavering commitment to its security with an insistence that Israel respect the legitimate claims and rights of the Palestinians.

obama一方面是鞭策美国和以色列阵营要尊重巴勒斯坦人的权益，另一方面也要求其他国家和巴勒斯坦阵营也要同时尊重以色列的权益。否则都是失败的外交政策。

Obama是个两面派，对以色列和巴勒斯坦都讨好，对其他国家也讨好。

以色列对美国没有好感

美国并未帮助以色列
