A few words can say a great deal
Reader comment on item: What's Wrong With Annapolis

Submitted by Anthony Dayton (Canada), Dec 7, 2007 at 09:37

Reporting on the Annapolis Conference, the National Post's headline featured brief quotations from Bush, Olmert and Abbas. The words of Bush and Olmert were of the typical, "time to end the bloodshed" variety, whereas Abbas was quoted as saying, "time to end the occupation." Any hopes that I might have had were pretty well laid to rest with the contrast of thought contained in those few words.
