To hell in a hand-basket

Washinton Times has a great editorial entitled A peace process in grave danger

[..]Right now, a continuation of the same vicious cycle that has been in effect since the signing of the first Oslo agreement on September 13, 1993 -- one that has continued under Labor and Likud governments alike -- seems inevitable: Israel's government makes concessions previously thought to be unthinkable. Jerusalem withdraws from territory, grants political recognition to Palestinian national movements and aspirations and releases prisoners jailed for crimes of violence in exchange for Palestinian promises to prevent terrorism against Israel. The Palestinians then pocket the Israeli concessions and proceed to either encourage terrorism or act sporadically and ineffectively to prevent it. Israel spends countless time unsuccessfully pleading with the Palestinians to fulfill their part of the bargain. Eventually things spiral out of control, terrorist attacks become unbearable and Israel responds by assassinating terrorist leaders and reoccupying territory in self-defense. [..]

Not one word about the Bush equation in this whole mess!! Which btw is WHY the " peace process in grave danger" is in grave danger. For heavens sakes it is all over the news today the Bush administration is softening their stance on Hamas. How much longer can partisans ignore this? It is not enough and not to the benifit of Israel to write a great op-ed slamming Abbas and the so-called peace process leaving key players out of the story.
