Does Anybody Really Care What B.O., Merkel "SAY" on these issues?

So, B.O. and his 'friend' Angela hold a press conference. And this is what they say. . .
  1. "Unilateral measures are not helping at all."   Talk, talk, talk.
  2. "unilateral actions such as the Palestinians seeking a vote on statehood at the UN General Assembly should be avoided."  Talk, talk, talk.
  3. Two leaders also agreed upon the "importance of curbing Iran's nuclear program" and warned that "further sanctions against the Islamic Republic could follow" if Tehran continued to rebuff IAEA inspectors.  Talk, talk, talk.
  4. B.O. said that he and Merkel also agreed that Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi "must step down and hand power to the Libyan people or the pressure on him will only increase."  Talk, talk, talk.  (Yeah, maybe by Christmas some predict.  Arms sales are going well.)
  5. Merkel echoed the US president's 'sentiments' on the Israeli-Palestinian diplomatic process.  Really more talk, talk, talk.
  6. "I think this was a very important initiative to point out once again that the United States, like Germany and the European Union, wish to promote a further development of the peace process. We're saying this to both countries - we want a two-state solution," Merkel stated. "We want a Jewish state of Israel along side an independent Palestinian state, unilateral measures are not helping at all."  Wow, talk, talk, talk.
  7. They agreed to work together to promote Middle East peace because "time is of the essence."  You get it, talk, talk, talk.
  8. She added: "Given the changes in the Arab region, it would be a very good signal indeed if it came out that talks again were possible."  Now they're openly calling for more "talk, talk, talk" themselves.
Is anybody really listening anymore?   I'm sure both the P.A. leaders and Israeli P.M. Netanyahu had better things to deal with today than this talk, talk, talk, from one leader that cannot get his own country straightened out and another who is on the verge of seeing the EU be hit hard by what is going on in several of its member states.  As my six year old grandson would say, "P u l l e e e a a a s s s e e e e."

Check the above out for yourself from the Jerusalem Post.

Obama, Merkel call on Palestinian... JPost - Diplomacy & Politics

p.s. And by the way -- are you seeing the P.A. rushing to have their request removed from the agenda?  I'm not.  But hey, I've been wrong before.  Let's wait and see.
