President Barack Obama has been thrust into center stage in Israel's
general election. Not by choice, of course. Democratic hopeful Obama met with
the leading candidates during his own campaign swing through the Middle East
last July, and his newly appointed special Middle East
envoy, George Mitchell, met with them all this week. If it were up to the U.S. president,

George Mitchell will have to address is how to deal with a politically
empowered Hamas and a politically weakened Fatah.
Daniel Levy, the director of the Middle East Task Force at the New America Foundation, joins Martin Savidge to discuss Mitchell’s mission in Gaza, the U.S. approach to Syria and the president’s decision to do an interview with Al-Arabiya.
