Us and the American elections

Every 4 four years the Arab world just like the rest of the world begins UVJt8ZWHZ66vj2n9261bObA4_400 to follow the American elections , of course we used to follow it only in its final stage not from the primaries like now as the rest of the world.

We used to follow the American elections then due to the American role in the region , we used to put our bets on the candidate "whether demarcate or republican" that will be less friendly with Israel and more friendly with us , for years we thought in this  despite the fact all the American presidential candidates are more friendly with Israel then us due to the power of the Jewish lobby in D.C and AIPAC , we knew about the Jewish lobby and its influence still we never gave up.

And this is why some think that there is no use to follow up the American Presidential elections because who ever will be the master of the White House ,the Palestinian cause will not be solved based upon real peaceful terms , it will be solved upon the Israel terms.

This is correct , there is no difference ; in fact each candidate from both parties compete on who will give more support to Israel , the trips to Israel are started two years before the elections bid starts.

Still it is not about Palestine anymore.

It is about Iraq , about the new middle east, about the relations between us and them ,about the war on terrorism , about Iran.

The United States now is in Iraq and the current leaving Neocons administration wants to go to war against Iran which means a total disaster to the Middle east.

This is why we should follow up the American elections from the beginning to know who could the best to meet our hopes , here we do not interfere in the Americans choice for their President Heavens forbid as it is an internal matter ,despite the fact the US administration since I do not know when always interferes in other countries' internal affairs.

Why we should follow it , well not to influence the Arab American vote but to make our plans for the future to be ready for the new master of the white house.

This is why I followed the preparations of the American elections , read about the future policies of those candidates about the Middle East from the early beginning. At first I chose Ron Paul then Obama but I knew that Paul has no chance just like Ralph Nader and So I chose Obama despite the fact his middle east policies are not the best for us , he is a pro-Israeli , yet he believes that the United States should speak to its enemies like Iran and Syria "as if they were actually the real US enemies" before going to the military solutions. This is important to me ,to us.

To be prepared for the next master of the United States.

By the way it is not only us the Arabs who are very interested in this year's election but the whole world from the EU to Russia to China , it is not like any other election.The whole world is watching it carefully as the last 8 years seems to be the worst worldwide thanks to the master of the White House G.W.Bush.
