Just like everywhere else in the world, Israel has a broad political spectrum. There is much diappointment over some of Bush's policies and actions, and there is a lot of enthusiasm about the possibility of change and progress.
Some of Obama's political leanings may indeed be scary, particularly to those of us who are not convinced that a "2-state solution" will bring peace or even a cease-fire to the area.
However, Israelis are tired of war and many are very hopeful that a new American president will bring the potential for peace.
