"When Bush the father tried to pressure Shamir to freeze settlements, Shamir used a very efficient tactic. Without getting into confrontations, he simply created a tough image. He knew how to safeguard Israel's interests. Then-Secretary of State James Baker knew there were certain subjects one could not raise with Shamir. When he mentioned the settlements, Shamir would look at him without answering. There was a red line here that Shamir would not let anyone cross. Netanyahu, too, can do the same thing."

John Zogby on Week 44: "Remember when a president's foreign trip led to some sort of deal or big announcement, or at least fawning crowds that were a symbol of success? Thus far, none of the above has taken place for President Obama. The China trip was at best ho-hum. The Japanese trip led to an unfortunate and silly focus on the courtesy he displayed to Japanese tradition. There was no breakthrough in Korea. It's been a tour with no substance or glory, and Obama usually at least gets some glory. While he was on the road, contrary to U S wishes, Israel announced it was building more settlements. Sadly, Obama's lackluster travels are also a sign of the nation's diminished influence." Grade: C
