The question is why more journalists are not covering this story. All you have to do is walk the streets of Jerusalem and you will find dozens of people that harbor the same beliefs. As a resident of Jerusalem, I can say that the people represented in this video are not members of a fringe group or simply drunk college kids. These people reflect the sentiments shared by many people in this country and this city. These people and their families are the core of the opposition to meaningful peace between Israel and her neighbors. This is what Obama is up against.

| Israel pushes out its own people : Netanyahu`s insistence on the term `Jewish state` signals a rejection of Israeli Palestinians as rightful citizens | | Dimi Reider - The Guardian - The reason why Netanyahu is talking over the heads of Palestinian Israeli citizens is precisely because most of them (over 70%) want to remain part of a sovereign democracy rather than the vague and improbably West Bank statelet. The reason he`s trying to create a fictional outside leadership for them in the character of the Palestinian Authority they so despise is precisely because their real leadership their mayors, intellectuals, politicians and NGOs persistently call for internal, Jewish-Arab dialogue over their rights and the role each community should play in a joint and truly democratic state.
