Almost exactly twenty years apart two similar incidents have occurred.

In 1993, American president twisted arms of Israeli Prime Minister to perform a nice gesture toward enemy of Israel, under pretense and promise that such humiliation of Israel will bring peoples closer to mutual understanding, friendship and peace.

In 2013 we witness different libretto with same music.
New Oslo Opera(tion) is in progress.
Wait for loud applause.
Very loud.
