My Way News - Israel, Palestinians resuming talks after 5 years
My Way News reports: "Israeli and Palestinian teams flew to Washington on Monday to end five
years of diplomatic stalemate and prepare for a new round of Mideast
peace talks, though optimism was in short supply after two decades of
failed attempts to reach a deal."
My Way News - Analysis: Mideast peace deal seems far off
My Way News reports: "The contours of Israeli-Palestinian peace are clear, experts say: If
only the sides summon up the will, the inevitable outcome is two states
roughly along the pre-1967 borders, with Jerusalem as a shared capital
and a finessing of the Palestinian refugee issue. The notion of a virtually preordained eventual result has been around for decades."
Comment: The press is both hyping the peace talks and also underscoring how unlikely a deal is. Still, the press has it's moments. For example, can you spot the factual error in this AP photo caption? Pretty glaring mistake, but it points to the problem of the depth of historical baggage that the peace talks have to deal with.
