Mr. Netanyahu got his timetable. “We’re not going to have talks
forever,” Mr. Obama said of Iran, assuring Mr. Netanyahu that he
expected to know by the end of the year whether Iran was making “a
good-faith effort to resolve differences.”

EXCERPTS:
My expectation would be that if we can begin discussions soon, shortly
after the Iranian elections, we should have a fairly good sense by the
end of the year as to whether they are moving in the right direction
and whether the parties involved are making progress and that there's a
good faith effort to resolve differences. That doesn't mean every issue
would be resolved by that point, but it does mean that we'll probably
be able to gauge and do a reassessment by the end of the year of this
approach.
"Shortly after," "fairly good sense," "the right direction," "good
faith effort," "probably," "by the end of the year." This was a
language chosen deliberately to cool the fever of Netanyahu and his
far-right War Coalition in Israel. But Stolberg, writing for the Times,
converts these hedged and vague suggestions into a revelation that
Obama for the first time seemed "willing to set even a general
timetable for progress in talks with Iran."

The whole point is that NYT falsified the entire meeting.

Captian, I don't think Obama set...
by Ostaad on Sat May 23, 2009 01:59 PM PDTthat "timetable" only to satisfy the Yabu and his gang. There are a lot of Americans in position of power that don't look upon these negotiations favorably for nationalistic and ideological reasons.
Obama's target audience were those Americans not Yabu, whose country is in dire economic conditions and can't survive without picking the pockets of the hapless American taxpayers in the form of US military and cash hand-outs.
