This article was written by Adiv Sterman, an author from the web magazine called Times of israel. 

The President of the United States: Barack Obama, stated that "Israel can expect to face international isolation and possible sanctions from countries and companies across the world if Benjamin Netanyahu fails to endorse a framework agreement with the Palestinians." (Times of Israel, 2014)

In this article, president Barack Obama gives his opinions to the Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu about the peace deal he must do in order to get the help of the United States. In an interview with Bloomberg, a site for business and financial market news, Obama stressed that time was running out for Israel to achieve a peace deal, and added that he believed Netanyahu had the capacity to rally Israel’s citizens behind an agreement. According to Adiv Sterman, the writer of this article, "Netanyahu left for Washington Sunday for talks about the US-led peace process and nuclear negotiations between world powers and Iran. Although Netanyahu would like the conversation with Obama to focus primarily on Iran, the White House appears to have a different agenda." (Times of Israel, 2014)

From my point of view, this is a really good article for the people who want to know more about the decisions and actions taken by either side of the two groups. Specially, this article showed me that in all conflicts there are always allies and in this occasion the ally is the United States. It also gave me the idea that we can solve conflicts many times by talking and making and agreement between each other.

  1. I really like the article you posted. You successfully showed Obama`s opinion. It would be nice if you used a photo because it would catch your readers attention; remember, a picture says a thousand words.
