Did anyone know that "A poll published last Friday in Yediot Ahronot, the mass circulation newspaper, showed 78 percent of Israelis in favor of dismantling the vast majority of settlements in the framework of a peace agreement with the Palestinians."? This isn't news, zonder, it's been true for a long time. The operative words are "in the framework of a peace agreement with the Palestinians". The Israelis will trade land for peace. They won't trade land for war, to create a terror-state that exists only for more war. What is so tough to understand about that? Sheesh. Did the year 2000 ever exist?

He has not, however, brought security, and his humiliation of Yasser Arafat has set back reform efforts among the Palestinians. He has?? Please quantify that Zonder.. It would seem to me that we've only recently heard about Palestinian moderates seeking visibility AFTER the Israelis weakened Arafat's grip over dissent. Of course, he's been reestablishing that by having his opposition assassinated... Don't see Amnesty International discussing that, do you?? Hawk
