I totally agree with you.

Ed Koch, Democrat & past NYC mayor used Obama's stance with Israel as his reason to support the republican that won Anthony Weiner's seat last week. That district has a strong conservative Jewish community. Prior it was held by a democrat since 1920!
Koch used it as a red flag & warned Obama he would do the same for his presidential election.

Koch, the squeaky wheel was noticed:
Koch received an unexpected invitation to a gathering of dignitaries the American President typically hosts during his New York visit.

Hi CF "Why should they not be given statehood and then negotiate the conditions of separation with Israel on an even footing? Why should statehood be a hostage to peace?" I suspect the simple, albit sad, answer is the up coming Presidential election. U.S. Jews are a large, much needed, Democrat leaning voting bloc. The Pres. can't afford to antagonize them.
