All the candidates have spoken on Israel-Palestine: They are all AIPAC supporters.
Senator Obama addressed AIPAC in March, 2007. He voiced continued support for military assistance to Israel and for not pressuring the Israeli's on negotiations with its neighbors. Obama in his Pastor Wright speech castigates the Palestinians for the troubles in the region and notes that Wright mistakenly ," sees the conflicts in the Middle East as rooted primarily in the actions of stalwart allies like Israel, instead of emanating from the perverse and hateful ideologies of radical Islam. " Obama was also a Lieberman supporter in the Lieberman/Lamont battle.McCain travels around the world with Lieberman. Enough said?
Clinton --ever since she was called on the carpet for embracing Arafat's wife she has been pro AIPAC all the way.
Furthermore, every day Israel builds more settlements in the occupied territories. Any sane person could see where this is going--the creeping erasure of the Palestinians. Or as former Israeli Premiere, Golda Meir said long ago--there are no Palestinians.

Moreover...
Foreign policy-wise not much will change with Obama or Hillary. We still have the axis-of-evil who run US foreign policy: Wall Street/Pentagon/Florida Cuban exiles--stick in AIPAC for a quartet-of-evil.
