My Way News - Israel's Olmert says peace deal closer than ever
AP reports: "Despite the troubles on both sides, the atmosphere was friendly when Olmert and Abbas posed on the steps of the Elysee Palace with Sarkozy in the center. Olmert and Abbas each rested an arm on the other's back. After the meeting, Olmert spokesman Mark Regev said Israel was committed to 'try to reach a historic agreement by the end of this year.' Such an agreement, he said, 'would outline what a two-state solution would look like.'"
