Prospects Dim
Last November, President Bush convened an international Middle East Peace conference in Annapolis, Md. The stated goal of the summit was to hammer out a peace agreement between Israelis and Palestinians before Bush leaves office in January 2009. But despite six trips to the Middle East by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to guide the process forward, there has been little apparent progress, although indirect talks have recently begun between Syria and Israel.
for Israeli- Palestinian Peace Accord This Year Interview with Jeff Halper, director of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, conducted by Scott Harris Some important obstacles standing in the way of reaching a peace accord include Israel's widely condemned continual expansion of illegal settlements on Palestinian land. Many observers believe that a key player in the negotiations, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, may soon be forced from office due to a widening corruption investigation. One positive development, a less than week-old ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas which controls Gaza, was jeopardized June 24 when Islamic Jihad launched rockets into southern Israel in retaliation for an Israeli raid in the West Bank. Meanwhile, diplomats from the "quartet" nations -- the United States, European Union, United Nations and Russia -- meeting in Berlin, appealed for urgent, significant progress in Israeli-Palestinian negotiations. Between The Lines' Scott Harris spoke with professor Jeff Halper, director of the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions, a nonviolent, direct-action group established to resist the Israeli military's destruction of Palestinian homes in the occupied territories. Dr. Halper, currently on a visit to the U.S., explains why he sees little chance for success in reaching a peace accord this year, until Israel ends its occupation of Palestinian land. Visit the Israeli Committee Against House Demolitions' website at icahd.org. Halper is the author of "An Israeli in Palestine: Resisting Dispossession, Redeeming Israel".
