Jerusalem Rejects Two-Year Peace Deadline
(Jerusalem Post) Hilary Leila Krieger and Khaled Abu Toameh - Israel doesn't want to see deadlines imposed on the negotiating process with the Palestinians, even as the U.S. is endorsing the idea of a two-year time frame. "In the past, attempts to impose time frameworks have not proved either realizable or helpful," Ambassador to Washington Michael Oren told the Jerusalem Post. U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell said Wednesday that "we think that the negotiation should last no more than two years."
