Obama backtracks on Jerusalem; Says it must be negotiated

I’m sure we’ll see plenty more of this. Lying through his teeth so he doesn’t get booed at a major speech, and then letting his campaign folks deal with the REAL story later…

Obama makes himself look all great when he claimed at AIPAC that Jerusalem must remain undivided.

“Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel, and it must remain undivided,” Obama declared Wednesday, to rousing applause from the 7,000-plus attendees at the American Israel Public Affairs Committee policy conference.

Well now he’s backtracking and saying otherwise…

But a campaign adviser clarified Thursday that Obama believes “Jerusalem is a final status issue, which means it has to be negotiated between the two parties” as part of “an agreement that they both can live with.”

“Two principles should apply to any outcome,” which the adviser gave as: “Jerusalem remains Israel’s capital and it’s not going to be divided by barbed wire and checkpoints as it was in 1948-1967.”
