This is the time for the extremist to come out again. Whenever close to some kind of progress, something happens. Rabin was shot, Israeli arabs were shot and Sharon decided to go to the Temple Mount (I thought no Jew were allowed to go there according to Judaism, not until a new temple is granted by God or something). On the other side.....suicide season might be reopened, with all its predictable responses in Jenin, Rafah..and so on.



Good news is that more than 50 % of the Palestinians and Israelis support the most controversial parts of the Geneva Initiative. A peace will look something like this, everone knows it but still war is preferred. Strange things in a strange place.



If the US will pressure the Israeli government into this, Sharon will fall and peace might be possible. in any case..it is progress and this is good.



Have the eye on the ball, not the flashing camera of the "impartial" journalist.
