I was pleasantly surprised that Obama made a tiny step toward supporting the Palestinians. I think that after December 2008 to January 2009, Operation Cast Lead, he was forced to do so to preserve any sort of image in the world of fairness. I doubt, too, as most of the bloggers here, that anything will come of his tiny step. The forces of evil control us!

We don't manufacture blog responses but report on what is already written and available and I am afraid those were among the handful of reactions I had access to at the time of writing this article. If you are a blogger, with the time and energy, as well as knowledge of the Saudi blogosphere, and preferably with a working knowledge of the Arabic language, please write to me as I am looking for Saudi or Saudi-based bloggers to cover Saudi Arabia for Global Voices Online.

Would rather read a Saudi voice, thank you. It’s hard to understand why Sabra, an American ex-pat living in Saudi Arabia, was chosen as a \Middle East blogger\ to respond to Obama’s speech.

From my point of view, Obama made history in his frank assessment of history and his tough calls to all sides to take concrete steps towards peace and stability in the region.
