Funny, although perhaps a bit unfair. Even James Taranto is willing to give Obama the benefit of the doubt on what he said at AIPAC, i.e. that Jerusalem should remain “undivided” in the sense that no parts of it should be walled off, not that no parts of it should conceivably be under Palestinian rule if that’s what the two sides agree to. We’ll know for sure what he meant once we see reaction among the pro-Israeli slice of the electorate. If they’re iffy, count on the post-partisan, highly principled Lamb of God revising his comments further with a stirring defense of Jerusalem as an Israeli city, now and forever.
