Is Jesse Jackson trying to undermine Barack Obama's candidacy?

I'm just asking:
[Speaking at the World Policy Forum in France, Jesse Jackson said that after Barack Obama is elected the] most important change would occur in the Middle East, where "decades of putting Israel's interests first" would end.

Jackson believes that, although "Zionists who have controlled American policy for decades" remain strong, they'll lose a great deal of their clout when Barack Obama enters the White House...

...What of Obama's promise to withdraw by 2010? Jackson believes that position will have to evolve, reflecting "realities on the ground."
UPDATE: Needless to say, "Obama Camp Rejects Jackson's Claim That He Would Diminish 'Zionist' Influence" (link)
