The problem with inexperience:
An advisor, Daniel Kurtzer, to Barack Obama says that Obama didn’t realize what he was saying to AIPAC when he used the term”undivided” in reference to Jerusalem. According to Kurtzer, Obama had “a picture in his mind of Jerusalem before 1967 with barbed wires and minefields and demilitarized zones.” Kurtzer says that only after the speech did Obama realize it was a “code word” to use the phrase, “but it does not indicate any kind of naivete about foreign affairs.”
Oh, it doesn’t indicate naivete? That’s a relief.
ASIDE: Even I knew that “undivided” meant not sharing the city with a Palestinian state. Although, I suppose I shouldn’t say “even I,” since I have nearly as much experience in government as Obama does.
