    Foreign Policy Goals: Why no speculations?

    I wish someone would speculate on the deal or charge that Obama surely must has given Hillary Clinton. What policy goal or challenge he might have set for her. Pullout from Iraq is happening anyhow. Pakistan-Afghanistan certainly is complex and needs deft moves over a period of time. But the biggest challenge of all, one that is a key to remaking the world order is none other than the Israeli-Palestinian settlement. Has Obama lined up his ducks in a row? When does the show begin? Some inkling on what to expect would be nice.
