U.S. President Barack Obama on Thursday backed the changes in the Arab world and presented his vision on the path to Israeli-Palestinian peace. Obama, in his much-anticipated speech, praised popular protests sweeping the Middle East as a "historic opportunity" and said promoting reform was his administration's top priority for the region.
He also piled up pressure on Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, saying for the first time that he must stop a brutal crackdown or "get out of the way."
