Israel gets a new government

Israel is always a hot topic when it comes to the Middle East, which is why this article about Israel's new government is important, especially with President Obama travelling to the Middle East next week.

What is interesting is how the article says that the newly sworn in government could "hamper any efforts to revive Israeli-Palestinian peace talks." Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu insists that Israel is interested in conducting peace talks with a Palestinian partner.

In regards to this issue I believe that both parties must put aside egos to reach a peaceful agreement, or to even be able to conduct the peace talks. This isn't always the easiest thing to do, but maybe we are getting closer to both parties being able to reach an understanding and mutual agreement that will end in successful peace talks.
