WASHINGTON [MENL] -- The United States has revised its security mission for
the Palestinian Authority, a report said.
A report by a former U.S. senior adviser asserted that President Barack
Obama has changed the American security mission in the West Bank. The
report, titled "How Obama Missed an Opportunity for Middle East Peace," said
Obama replaced U.S. security coordinator Lt. Gen. Keith Dayton with a
general from Central Command in an effort to limit the use of diplomacy as a
means to build the PA security forces and stabilize the West Bank.
