You have gone back and forth with a few people on "What Happened at Camp David?" Lets listen to Clinton himself. From WSJ.com
>>>>You may recall the big front-page New York Times story that had anonymous ex-Clintonites saying, no, Arafat didn?t walk away from a historic deal, things were complicated, don?t blame him for wrecking the peace process, blah, blah, blah. This was when a significant chunk of the world was finally turning against Arafat, with Palestinians blowing up Israelis by the score, and the PLO chairman as intransigent as ever. The front-page story was a lifeline to Arafat and his ? infinitely numerous ? apologists.
Waal, the other night, speaking at a function, the ex-president himself said, ?What Arafat did in walking away from Ehud Barak?s [peace] offer is not the wave of the future. It is the last gasp of an old worldview.?
Of course, Clinton was speaking before a Jewish group in New York. Who knows what he?d say in Dearborn? Then again, we can guess.<<<<<<< nationalreview.com |
