Like most Americans on the east coast I awoke to Barack Obama speaking in Egypt.  Obama spoke of tolerance of others beliefs and religion.

The President also spook directly at Iran and declared that Israel is not going away. We should all realize this and move forward not dwell in the past.

I must say this is like using reverse psychology on a child. He takes whomever is watching by the hand and explains why you can't abuse a people because of religion, sex, background or beliefs. The treatment and a woman's freedom was also a topic Obama covers in this speech.

The audiance (mostly students) seemed to like Barack Obama as the applause was numerous. Obama is a great speaker and is more of a teacher who can get through to people. With a new youthful generation of middle easterners coming to power we can hope that the regoin can learn to live together.
