Same old, same old

Israel making life difficult for the Palestinians? Acting like the Gaza withdrawal never happened? Who says this?

James Wolfensohn:

"The Government of Israel, with its important security concerns, is loath to relinquish control [in the West Bank and Gaza], almost acting as though there has been no withdrawal, delaying making difficult decisions and preferring to take difficult matters back into slow-moving subcommittees."

The occupation continues unabated.

Looks like the US needs to put more diplomatic (even monetary) pressure on Israel.

But its unlikely - what with the US Presidential election "only" 3 years away the Republican know where their reelection funds are coming from...

Yes I should have added the Democrats, but didn't want to make things seem too futile in the US.

I spose, until the UN becomes a head kicking organisation (and instead its becoming as effective as one hand clapping) Israel will continue to get away with it.
