...subject. He and top Obama adviser Dennis Ross offered a version of this idea in a recent book with a long title. Makovsky then presented the plan to Benjamin Netanyahu over the summer. And? "He was noncommittal," Makovsky says. Indeed, if Netanyahu agreed to the land swap, his right-wing coalition would atomize. But he could still form a new government by aligning with the centrist Kadima Party. And then he would have the chance to be remembered as the man who finally secured Israel's borders - the sort of achievement that actually might merit a Nobel Prize...

In the right-wing Israeli press, he was portrayed as a prejudiced South African liberal, misguidedly equating the Palestinians with his own country's black population during the fight against apartheid...

...march itself was predictable. It was a farrago of left-wing rhetoric (anticorporate, proimmigrant, etc.) and respectfully anti-Obama rhetoric. "Easter egg rolls on the White House lawn are nice, but enactment of the Employment Non-Discrimination Act and the repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act are more important," thundered New York City union official Stuart Appelbaum, who was referring to Obama's invitation earlier this year to at least one lesbian couple to bring their kids to the White House's Easter event...
