Dubya is often chastised for his ME policy but his latest rhetoric is quite remarkable....he's gone further than any other US president in history by actually calling for the creation of a Palestinian state as part of the solution.

Will it have any impact though?

Mr Bush's statement is the diplomatic highlight of his visit
US President George W Bush has said Israel must end its occupation of some Arab land to enable the creation of a viable Palestinian state.

He also urged a solution to the issue of Palestinian refugees that would involve paying them compensation.

It is thought to be Mr Bush's strongest public statement pressing Israel to give up land it seized in the 1967 war.

He was speaking in Jerusalem following two days of separate talks with Israeli and Palestinian leaders.

He has been trying to encourage the two sides into peace talks, and says he wants a peace deal signed by the time he leaves office in January 2009.

its all well and good him saying it now (when he wont be in office within 11 months), where was this rhetoric eight, four, or even two years ago?
its just a hollow gesture, nothing more and nothing less...

a way to put an end to this bs, payout over a long period of time? i can see it now, western media claiming an agreement has been struck, palestinien people to be paid out - a decision taken by mahmoud abbas the undemocratic representative of the people. he'll take this decision regardless of the true wishes of the palestinen ppl because it's a way to put it all behind them and move on., There isn't much they can do at this moment in time tbh.. beter to taekt the cash and spend is 'wisely'...

Its amazing from war torn land locked countries in Africa, to militant rural peasants in India, the improvised ghettos of American cities and the embargoed Palestinians.

People don't have enough power/shelter/food while their comrades are walking around with weaponry.
