Clinton downplyaing remarks on settlements

Over the weekend at a news conference, seen above, Clinton hailed Israel's "unprecedented" concessions on settlement construction in the West Bank. That didn't go over well with Palestinian and Arab leaders because Clinton had previously called for a total settlement freeze. Today, Clinton appeared to downplay her previous remarks, reports Laura Rozen over at Politico, who's in Morocco, Clinton's location for the day. As usual, anything related to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict stirs mass controversy.
