Bush's Selective Hearing
(Ha'aretz) Aluf Benn - The U.S. administration is cleaving to the road map as if it were scripture, even though it is well known that its chances for realization are negligible, and no one is lifting a finger to save it. PA prime minister Qurei is not convincing in his seriousness and his ability to move forward, and is perceived as an insubstantial and useless figure. According to one of the president's friends, Bush views the terror attacks, and not the settlements, as the main obstacle to peace. Bush apparently also understands the security need for the separation fence, and is not moved by his aides' contentions regarding the suffering it is causing the Palestinians.
