I think Hamas is backing itself into a corner. They're painting themselves, quite publicly, as the "deal breakers."

Bush doesn't seem to be willing to take either party's word for it:

U.S. interagency team will monitor 'roadmap' and security


SPECIAL TO WORLD TRIBUNE.COM
Friday, June 6, 2003
The United States intends to send observers to monitor the process of a Palestinian ceasefire and Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank and Gaza Strip.

U.S. officials said the Bush administration has established a team that would monitor both security and political developments connected to the roadmap. They said the team would be composed of members of the State Department, U.S. military and CIA.

The U.S. team would determine Israeli and Palestinian compliance with the roadmap and report to the White House and State Department, officials said. They said the first challenge of the team would be to ensure the dismantling of unauthorized Israeli outposts in the West Bank.

"This mission will be charged with helping the parties to move towards peace, monitoring their progress and stating clearly who is fulfilling their responsibilities," President George Bush said in Aqaba on Wednesday. "And we expect both parties to keep their promises."
