President Bush?
Now who 's the next arabist we can toss out? President Bush?Paul Wolfowitz and Elliot Abrams have been working not on the Iraq crisis, but on the "road map", specifically at the direction of President Bush. Both are Jews and highly committed to the security of Israel. They are not, however, friendly toward the squatter movement.
"What do they [the Israelis] want with these settlements?"
-Elliot Abrams.
In an interview in the Washington Post on Friday, Wolfowitz said, "Our stake in pushing for a Palestinian state will grow" after the war, and he noted that he preferred "concrete steps, like dealing with the settlements" over the advancing of diplomatic issues as part of a "process."-Ha'aretz, 1/19/03
