...and it went a little something like this:
President Obama: Pre-1967 borders with mutual swaps.
Prime Minister Netanyahu: We won't go back to 1967 borders.
President Obama: I said "pre-1967."
Prime Minister Netanyahu: Oh, ok.
President Obama: With mutual swaps.
Prime Minster Netanyahu: Well, we want pre-1967 borders with mutual swaps, but only if Palestinians recognize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state.
President Obama: You're right. Palestinians must recognize Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state. And that's what i said.
Prime Minister Netanyahu: Oh, well, then we agree.
President Obama: Yes, we do.
Republican Noise Machine: Obama sucks! BOO!
Republican Noise Machine: Netanyahu rocks! YAY!
As if the Middle East peace process wasn't already a big enough challenge without the GOP running interference.
