Anyone who doubts the folly of current policy to the Palestinians – economic punishment, unilateralism, refusing to negotiate with President Abbas on political issues or dialogue with the Hamas Government on daily matters – should read this interview from Haaretz with just-retired Israeli Brigadier-General Ilan "Pitzi" Paz. Paz, the 28-year military veteran, past head of Israel's Administration in the territories, and Brigade Commander in Jenin and Ramallah pulls no punches in calling for peace negotiations now: "There is a Palestinian partner for an agreement that could be acceptable to a majority of the Israeli public… Eventually we will have to arrive at a solution, and it will be more or less identical to the Clinton outline and the Geneva Accords. The question is how much blood will be spilled until then." Read the article here, then channel the anger to calling for negotiations now.
