Subject: From the BBC news site.

The US is preparing to release a statement establishing details for direct negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, the BBC has learned.

Both the US government and other international Quartet members have been working towards a formula to persuade both sides to begin negotiations, after several months of indirect talks.

US special envoy George Mitchell has tried to establish enough trust to begin direct talks - with the ultimate aim of two states existing side by side in peace.

If they do.. less power to the recruiters of terrorists.

There will have to be compromises and ground given by both sides if a new round of peace talks is to succeed where many previous attempts have failed.

Just as in Northern Ireland

N' on the news just now.. The last US combat troops are leaving Iraq two weeks earlier than Pres Obama aimed for.
