Contradiction in Washington Prevents Peace in the Middle East

September 25, 2010

Israel's ten-month "freeze" on settlement building, declared under pressure from the Obama administration last November, is set to expire this month.

Israelis and Palestinians have agreed to enter direct negotiations (yet again) in Washington on September 2. The Obama administration is sure to hail this as a significant breakthrough.
