A Boston Globe staff-ed criticizes a Kadima party promise to unilaterally set Israeli borders, while calling on Israel to proceed with negotiations immediately after the elections. The Globe then suggests a very questionable stratagem:
The Israeli government chosen on March 28 will have a better chance of achieving secure permanent borders if it proposes negotiations toward an end-of- conflict peace accord that Hamas could only reject at the price of alienating the Palestinian populace.
Is the Globe actually advocating that Israel talk to Hamas but torpedo negotiations by making offers it knows the terror group will never accept? Isn’t this the very strategy that critical Camp David revisionists accuse Ehud Barak of using to sink the Camp David II talks?
