What is there to say about the events of this week? Arlene Kushner has, as usual, some valuable insights.
Prime Minister Olmert has informed us that President Bush is committed to realizing his dream of a Palestinian state before he leaves office in January 2009.
Quite frankly, the hypothesis that these “leaders†are operating in an alternate universe seems to me as good an explanation of this statement as any other I can come up with. (There are, of course, other explanations: prime among them that Bush and Olmert don’t remotely believe in the possibility but choose to adopt this fiction for political reasons.) ...
An alternate universe indeed. If you aren't already familiar with Arlene's blog, you should probably fix that.
Shabbat Shalom.
