Two peas in a pod
Rick Richman proves that Obama was not misunderstood when in his speech in Cairo he seemed to be equating creation of state of Israel after the Holocaust with the suffering of Palestinians. It is, in fact, exactly what he believes: a moral and historical equivalence between the two.
Rick also quotes Tom Lantos' summary of his work with Robinson during Durban 1, which makes clear than the Medal of Freedom award to Robinson was not due carelessness in vetting. It was in fact, an award Obama completely supported, since he channeled her exact words in his Cairo speech!
