A very interesting post by David Adesnik on OxBlog about the Bush-Sharon press-conference today. It makes me feel slightly less gloomy that I did upon reading the NYTimes article, which certainly made it sound like Bush had just agreed to everything Sharon asked, including the right to keep as many Israeli settlements in the West Bank as he likes. From what I could tell, Bush *said* that he was in favor of a Palestinian state, but didn't give any indication of *where* this state could exist, if the Israeli settlements remain on the West Bank.
