 Obama sees `positive movement` in Netanyahu speech - but reminds that settlements are illegal
Paula Wolfson - Associated Press/Voice of America - In the first personal reaction to Netanyhau`s speech, President Obama welcomed the PM`s willingness to accept a Palestinian state - but stated that Netanyhau`s numerous conditions be discussed in negotiations rather than be preconditions to talks. And Obama stated that "In past agreements, settlements have been categorized as illegal" - a term which had been avoided by several of Obama`s predecessors who preferred much milder terms such as "settlements are unhelpful" and the like.
