This quote says it all about the PEACE PROCESS. Israel is making many mistakes by giving such large concessions. Rahman tried to quell Syrian anxiety and said that the "Palestinian Authority will not separately pursue an accord with Israel. Any accord will be carried out according to Arab strategy, which holds that Israel must withdraw from Arab territory that was conquered in 1967, which includes the Syrian Golan and Shebaa Farms. Thus, there is no reason for Syria's fears and there is no need for Syrian involvement in our internal affairs."

And clearly Hamas will not make peace and from Abbas says in this article PA is not compromising on anyting. Only Olmert will compromise, Israel's secuirty for a few more weeks in office and so he can lick bush shoes as Bush walks out the White HOuse. DUMP OLMERT

The arabs already own (stole, given, conquered) 99% of the ME. The arabs of former "Palestine" have already been given ca. 70%. of palestine; the rest: Eretz-Israel is Jewish land. The Golan is also Jewish land. Get over it, you ain't gonna get it. The Arabs still don't get it, they have missed all historic opportunities, to steal more of Eretz Israel. They should be now thinking of relocating tback to their homelands: Syria, Jordan, Egypt. Only then will there be Peace in the ME.

let's see, Lebanon, the PA, what's next? Syria sux big time.
