Definitely, If anyone can it has to be Obama. His speech last week in cairo sent out some very positive signals, Good luck your gonna need it.

who knows where this world will be in two years.

this is just talk

it's like saying we have found good fuel alternatives to be launched in 2030

Same old same old. How many times has this been tried? Look, even if he succeeds in a treaty does anyone really think they will stick to it? He can make promises all he wants, but until I see it, it is just lip service and more politician babel.

In Camp David the U.S. promised a massive financial aid package to both Egypt and Israel in exchange for their accession to the treaty.

That didn't help anyone except for individuals in both countries, after that Egypt did change but the entire situation not at all.

I hope that money won't be involved again.
God why must everything involve money.

It's not black nor white, it's all colours in between

Oh please, actions speak louder than words
And Obama's campaign was nothing but hollow words and gimmicky buzzwords.

It's about black and white, it's about not just speeches but policy change.

You think muslims should celebrate over Obama's speech on Islam?
Why?
Did he mention EVEN ONE policy change?
That's why there's terroism, because of foreign policy.

Unless Obama is the AntiChrist -- which I think to believe is giving Obama too much credit -- he will not broker peace in the Middle East.

don't get your hopes up. Israel will not give up anymore settlements! there will not be peace in the middle east as long as both sides claim the same land, and both sides have governments that would rather kill each other and not actually work together.

The problem isn't that the American people don't trust in Obama--though that is pretty widespread--but that the rest of the WORLD doesn't bow down to the same extent. I can imagine being Pakistani right now and watching his speech. I seriously doubt I would say "Wow, our savior has arrived. Peace will now come."
