BARACK OBAMA’S PLAN TO SECURE AMERICA AND RESTORE OUR STANDING
Quote:
Talk to our Foes and Friends: Obama is willing to meet with the leaders of all nations, friend and foe. He will do the careful preparation necessary, but will signal that America is ready to come to the table, and that he is willing to lead. And if America is willing to come to the table, the world will be more willing to rally behind American leadership to deal with challenges like terrorism, and Iran and North Korea's nuclear programs.
Israeli-Palestinian Conflict: Obama will make progress on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict a key diplomatic priority. He will make a sustained push – working with Israelis and Palestinians – to achieve the goal of two states, a Jewish state in Israel and a Palestinian state, living side by side in peace and security.

When Obama's own website say he's "willing to meet with the leaders of all nations, friend and foe", and "the leaders" in Palestine are a group known as Hamas, then that tells me that either Obama is lying on his website or he's lying in your article...
Decide for yourself...
