[Newsweek] Daniel Stone - According to Aaron David Miller, a public policy scholar at Washington's Woodrow Wilson Center, the American-orchestrated process started at Annapolis has virtually disappeared. The Abbas-Olmert dialogue began five months before Annapolis. "If Olmert and Abbas actually do produce a few pages that lay out the broad principles on Jerusalem and security, it will be a breakthrough, but the U.S. will not have facilitated that process." "I wouldn't call for a more robust American role right now....This administration must avoid the fundamental mistakes of its predecessor, which is to do too much too late in the game, and call for some high-wire summit. Because if they do that and they fail, they will kill the idea of a two-state solution to this conflict."
