Israeli Officials: Concessions Are Not a "One-Way Street"
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - The current round of diplomatic negotiations will only yield results if the Palestinians want them to work and lend their hand in making them work, Israeli government officials said on Sunday. If the Palestinians just wait for Israel to make concessions and see the process as a one-way street, the process will fail, the officials said. "This will only work if it is a two-way street." Israeli officials are presently focused on Secretary of State John Kerry's framework document laying out the principles the U.S. believes are needed for a two-state solution, though Kerry in the end may not present the paper because the two sides cannot agree on the bulk of it.
