Road Map Put Off Until After Iraq War
(Ha'aretz) - Aluf Benn The U.S. has reached a secret understanding with Palestinian prime minister-designate Abu Mazen to put off the formal presentation of the "road map" until the new Palestinian cabinet is sworn in and possibly until after the war in Iraq. The Americans also expect Abu Mazen to include in the cabinet Jibril Rajoub and Mohammed Dahlan, the former heads of preventive security in the West Bank and Gaza respectively. A senior Jerusalem source said Prime Minister Ariel Sharon reached an agreement with the White House enabling Israel to present its comments and reservations to the road map.
