Does Abu Mazem have time to wait-he & Fatah will be out of office in 6 months!

Abu Mazen & Fatah are investing all their efforts in stengthening themselves militarily in order to do to Hamas supporters in the West Bank what Hamas is doing to ther supporters in Gaza. All Abu Mazen's undertakings to President Bush under the Road Map are completely forgotten. Abu Mazen has possibly not noticed that his newly formed government is not very popular with residents of the West Bank.

The negotiations between Fatah & Hamas have absolutely no chance to succeed & the January Elections will very sadly thanks to Abu Mazen be lost to Hamas. The next step will "as usual" be rockets on Tel Aviv and one does not have to be an international expert to guess what will hapen next.

What is a mystery is the constant talk about two states which completely overlooks the third state in Gaza ! In view of the impending rocket attacks from Iran which are promised constantly by the Iranian President the Israeli Government would be well advised to build reinforced rooms as quicly as possible on the West Bank to protect its citizens & in the meantime provide a roof over the head of new offspring.

World Leaders who want to help bring peace to this troubled region would be well advised to promote workable creative solutions which like everything in the real world stand a chance meeting the objective of Peace in our Time!
