Last week, in a speech on the Middle East, President Obama reiterated long-standing US policy that there should be a final settlement to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict that is based roughly on the pre-1967 borders and mutually agreed land swaps.

Despite the fact that Obama’s declaration was nothing new, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blasted the idea of pre-1967 borders, even using a news conference with Obama to call the proposal “indefensible.” His chief political rival, Kadima’s Tzipi Livni, disagreed, noting that the pre-1967 borders is already American policy.

Social networking site Facebook said yesterday that it deleted a page calling for a third "intifada" (uprising) against the state of Israel, claiming the page's users and administrators called for violence.

The page called on citizens of Arab states to demonstrate against Israeli oppression of Palestinians following Friday prayers on May 15.

May 15 is Israel's official independence anniversary: a date Palestinians call the "Naqba," or catastrophe.

Nearly half a million people signed up for the page before the company took it down. Several others have already sprung up to replace it, but none quite as large -- yet.
