On air: Obama on the Arab Spring

| Thursday, 5 May 2011 | 16:04 - 20:30 GMT

On WHYS at 1700GMT we want to hear your reaction to President Obama's speech on the Middle East, due in a couple of hours from now. We'll hear people from the region, talking to each other about what they've heard. While we're still waiting for the speech itself - turn speechwriter for a moment. What do you think Obama *should* say about America's role in the region? Give me a key line or two ...

    @jonathanhaag @bbc_whys I know! I can't believe they want us to support them with our dollars but then think it comes w/o strings attached?

    @主播大秀_whys many of your guests sound quite like many Americans who feel that they are entitled to money from the government.

    @bbc_whys as an American I am amazed that your panelists want our money but at the same time they want us out of their business.

    @主播大秀_WHYS With Bahrain the language he used was quite subdued rather than open and harsh criticism like he did with Syria, Iran or Libya!

  22. Comment sent via unknown: 23057

    @主播大秀_WHYS Also, he demanded that he wanted a free Palestine but a demilitarized region. How can Palestine then achieve total sovereignty?

  23. Comment sent via unknown: 23057

    @主播大秀_HaveYourSay @主播大秀_WHYS Obama just repeated the status-quo. If he was serious he should have asked Israel to withdraw from Palestine.

    @主播大秀_WHYS #MESpeech #Israel is ocupating there land who was ocupated by the #Palestinians whos lands it is? Again let them fight for it!

    @主播大秀_WHYS It seems to me while Mr. Obama has one finger pointing at the Arab world he has 3 fingers pointing back at him.
