At the risk of interrupting what promises to be a terrific discussion between you and Nadine, I would point out that the Palestinians recently had 99% of what they wanted vis-a-vis the settlements but rejected the offer.

I know this is controversial and not writ in stone. Nevertheless, even if the Palestinians were dissatisfied with the offer, it was a very promising step that could have conceivably resulted in the end of the settlements as an issue.

The whipping boy for the failure is, of course, Arafat. After the suicide bombings and the increased violence, I wonder how much more difficult it will be to get the Israelis back to the position that would have resulted in a settlement.
