"He has recognized the strength of the past but insists on the need to transform the values confirmed by Anglo-American relations, their origins in universal values," said James Ellison, school of history at Queen Mary, University of London. "It was a speech of interdependence and multilateralism." Obama s gone a long way today to extend the history of America beyond Bush.

"I can't think of an American President to make a such sensitive speeches in Europe for some time", he added, noting that it struck the right balance between the force and humility.

Obama rejected the idea that the emergence of new superpowers made the alliance not less relevant.

"We will proceed with humility, and knowledge that we do not dictate results abroad." Ultimately, freedom must be won by the people themselves, not imposed from without. But us can and must stand with those who struggle as well. ?

At a press conference held jointly with Prime Minister David Cameron earlier in the day, Obama talks about winning the war in Libya as a "slow continuous process."

He returned to the theme of the North Africa and the Middle East in his address to Parliament, stressing that the United States and Britain supported those struggling for democracy, but implying that support did not mean military intervention.

"We must show that we back up our words deeds," he said. "This means investing in the future of these nations this transition to democracy, starting with the Tunisia and the Egypt - expanding trade links; by helping demonstrate them that freedom brings prosperity. ?

He said that, while many of the problems of the past decade have been retreating, the future would present major challenges.

Israeli PM Netanyahu to deliver a speech to the Congress

 Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to deliver a speech at a joint meeting of Congress Tuesday morning, summary of the visit of five days has been full of controversy and disagreement on a point of departure for negotiations for a peace agreement between Israelis and Palestinians.

In a speech to the Conference on the American Committee on public affairs of Israel (AIPAC) late Monday night, Netanyahu offered an overview of his address, legislators telling the pro-Israeli lobby it will describe a unabashed vision for a peace plan.


"I intend to tell the truth pure and simple, because it is now more that ever we need is peace," said Benjamin Netanyahu.


Netanyahu was rebellious in opposition to the position of President Obama, in a speech last Thursday, that the lines of 1967, with swaps agreed, should serve as a basis for future negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians.


"Israel cannot return to the lines of 1967 indefensible," Netanyahu said to roaring applause from the crowd.


Speaking earlier in the evening, Monday, the Senate majority leader Harry Reid (D - Nev) split with the President on the use of the lines of 1967 as a basis for negotiations.


"I believe that the parties that should lead negotiations must be parties to the Centre of this conflict." and no one else does. The place where the negotiation will be must be at the negotiating table? and nowhere else, "Reid said without mentioning directly the President Obama or his speech last week."


These negotiations will not take place and their conditions will not set through speech, or in the streets or in the media. No one should define premature parameters on the borders, building or anything else, "added Reid."


Eric Cantor, the only Jewish Republican House majority House Leader told journalists Monday that he expected Netanyahu to issue a statement "about the situation on the ground" in the Middle East and in particular a last updated on the Israelis and Palestinians are in conflict.


"I am hopeful that we will hear a stressing by [Netanyahu] of the danger that faces of Israel, and us in the region, with an alliance between Hamas and Fatah, and the fact that the underlying danger is the fact that you have now a demonstrable entity which aims to destroy Israel and will refuse the right" to exist". as a Jewish State, Cantor (R - VA.) said.


No. 2 Republican House predicted that such a message to Israeli Prime Minister would be "welcomed in Congress", and "the bipartisan agreement will exist and will be to strengthen the support of the United States for our only democratic ally in the region and for really kind of define the right equation and direRegardez", as long as there is no partner for peace in the Middle East, we cannot push an ally in a compromising situation. ?


After the speech of the Prime Minister, Netanyahu will remain on Capitol Hill to meet with leaders of Congress for lunch. Later, he will hold a bilateral meeting with the members of the Jewish Congress before returning to Washington late Tuesday night.


House Chairman John Boehner also delivered remarks Monday night to the AIPAC, where he reaffirmed the support of America to a "safe and secure" Israel, while rejecting the idea that the United States is "too pro-Israeli" and call this suggestion an obstacle to peace in the region.
