Palestinians optimistic after Obama's speech - 5 Jun 09
In the speech by Barack Obama, the US president, there was little more than words of comfort for Gazans.Yet Palestinians say its tone has made them feel optimistic.
Whether or not his speech goes down in history as a defining moment in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will depend on what happens next.
Al Jazeera's Sherine Tardros reports from Jerusalem.

Max Blumenthal: Feeling the Hate In Jerusalem on Eve of Obama's Cairo Address
Max Blumenthal writes: On the eve of President Barack Obama’s address to the Muslim world from Cairo, Egypt, I stepped out onto the streets of Jerusalem with my friend Joseph Dana to interview young Israelis and American Jews about their reaction to the speech. We encountered rowdy groups of beer sodden twenty-somethings, many from the United States, and all eager to vent their visceral, even violent hatred of Barack Obama and his policies towards Israel. Usually I offer a brief commentary on my video reports, but this one requires no comment at all. Quite simply, it contains some of the most shocking footage I have ever filmed. Watch it and see if you agree.
(Warning: this video contains profanity and material offensive to just about anyone.)
