Israelis and Palestinians are closely watching next month's US

midterm race amid a sense----rarely discussed openly but very

much on people's mind ----that the result could affect the

US-led peace effort and President Obama's ability to coax

concessions from Isreal.

（Analysis: Israelis, Palestinians eye US midterm elections ）

Israelis and Palestinians (blu-ray) copy were closely watching

next month's US midterm race amid a sense ― rarely discussed

openly but very much on people's minds ― that the result could

affect the US-led peace effort, (App Makers Take Interest in

Android,) and US President Barack Obama's ability to coax

concessions from Israel.

Animating the discussion is the startling fact that the United

States has failed, (Your SF Giants: Knuckleheads who

win, )despite emphatic public appeals by Obama and weeks of

increasingly frustrating diplomacy, to persuade Israel to extend

the settlement-building slowdown that expired on September

26.

The Palestinians are now hoping that Obama has reacted mildly

to Israel's rejection because of political considerations ahead

of the November 2 vote ― and might be freer to apply pressure

after the elections.

"We think that if President Obama emerges strong from this

election, then this will enable him to work more on foreign

policy," Palestinian Authority negotiator Nabil Sha'ath told The

Associated Press. "If he and his party lose in the elections,

(video converter, )then this will limit his ability to pressure and

actively engage in foreign policy. This is the problem."

Although Israeli officials avoid discussing the topic publicly for

fear of alienating its most important ally, there is a foreboding

sense in Israel that punishment is on the way ― especially if

Obama emerges unscathed.

Nahum Barnea, a respected and (blu-ray copy) widely-read

columnist, put it this way in Friday's Yediot Ahronot: "The

problem is the disgust and rage that the Israeli refusal sparked

in the administration ― a rage that is being suppressed at the

moment, but which will erupt in full force on November 3, after

the elections to Congress. The Americans are seeking the logic

behind the refusal ... and are finding nothing."

But if recent polls are proved accurate and Republicans take one

or both houses of Congress, a chastened president might be too

busy or weakened to pressure Jerusalem much, the thinking

goes.

If Congress tilts Republican it could have a "positive impact" on

Israeli concerns, one adviser to Prime Minister Binyamin

Netanyahu told The AP ― an allusion to avoiding pressure for

concessions. With the Democrats weakened, Israel's friends in

Congress ― both Democrat and Republican ― "would be able to

have a stronger voice if the administration should embark on a

policy that is less favorable to Israel," he added.

US foreign policy is set by the White House, not Congress. But

Congress can influence it in the course of the day-to-day

political horse trading that goes on between the executive and

legislative branches. For example, when Republicans controlled

the House of Representatives during Netanyahu's first term in

the late 1990s, the prime minister was able to marshal the

support of the party's conservative wing in a face-off with then

US President Bill Clinton over stepped-up settlement

construction and Israeli troop pullbacks in the West Bank.

Traditionally, both branches (blu-ray copy) have been bastions

of support for Israel no matter which party is in charge. But

conservative Republican legislators tend to be less critical of

Israel's contentious settlement policy and more hawkish ― and

therefore supportive ― on the security issues that are

uppermost in Israel's mind.

第一段话我对《读者》的好感始于她的良好口碑。从前我可以说每期必买，但仅限于翻翻看看，然而后来却大有不同，我对她越来越依赖，甚至到了不可或缺的地步。

（下文主要讲的是这个世纪初，正赶上西部大开发的机遇，“我随中国石化石油勘探对到塔克拉玛干大沙漠，在那一呆就是几个月，几年都是那样。书就成我们的精神食粮，那有本《读者》，已经不知传了多少人的手了。后来我看见她时，她已经发黄很旧了。听说书上有篇文章讲的是人应当在困境中如何正确的面对人生，我就特别想得

到它。但是我无论怎么请求，差点给持书的人跪下了，他还是不给我。后来我突然得到那本书，可能是来的太突然了，我竟然激动了很久，没有打开它。那种激动地心情我到现在还记得。那篇文章什么题目我忘了，但是却清晰地记得它的内容讲的是怎样面的人生的困难。“记得一二，忘记八九”人生如意的事只有一二，不如意的事却有八九，所以应当常常想想一二，不思八九。我读了那篇文章之后，对人生的意义和道理突然明白了许多。原来，人生就是充满了困难。所以应当“记得一二，不思八九”)全篇文章最难得也就是那个词“中国石化石油勘探队，每期《读者》，塔克拉玛干大沙漠”了……

（我10点多一点就写完了，可是字体不好，有些潦草还有涂改的地方，一定会影响卷面……）
