Right on...only solution for Jerusalem coupled with a single state solution combining Israel and the West Bank with strong protections for the minorities in their democracy...has a better chance for success then this insane effort in Iraq.

The Road Map reminds me of a Soviet 5-Year Economic Plan. Lots of targets, and schedules, and everyone earnestly commits themselves to achieving it. "The Plan is being fulfilled". And none of it, not a single detail, has any relationship to reality. None of the targets, none of the deadlines, nothing is achieved, nobody does what they've promised to do, but everyone continues the public fiction. Nobody dares displease the Maximum Leader in Washington. So Hamas sends their suicide bombers out, and then says "We continue to observe the hudna". And Israel sends their helicopter gunships to rain rockets down on city streets, killing Hamas leaders, and bystanders, and then the Israelis say, "We continue to follow the road map". And the Maximum Leader nods and smiles and thanks them for their cooperation, and the killing continues. ""At the end of the road map is a cliff that both sides will fall off."- Colin Powell.
