This month marks 15 painful years since the Arafat-Rabin handshake on the White House lawn. Palestinian children who started school when the Oslo Agreement was signed in 1993 are now young adults. They have not known a day of true freedom or genuine security in their lives. Oslo offered peace on a timetable, freedom doled out in stages. Its promise was derailed by increased Israeli settlement construction, restrictions on Palestinian movement and, correspondingly, by violent resistance to occupation from some Palestinians. The process begun by President George Bush in Annapolis last year offers another opportunity to reach a lasting peace. History will judge none of us kindly if we squander this opportunity. I continue to believe that we can achieve a lasting peace, with the Israeli and Palestinian peoples living as neighbors in two independent states. But if we do not succeed, and succeed soon, the parameters of the debate are apt to shift dramatically. Israel's continued settlement expansion and land confiscation in the West Bank makes physical separation of our two peoples increasingly impossible. The number of Israeli settlers in the Palestinian West Bank grew by approximately 85% after the Oslo accords were signed. We are impatient for our freedom. Yet partial peace, as proposed again by my current interlocutors, is not the way forward. Partial freedom is a contradiction in terms. Either a Palestinian lives free or continues ...

The following letter was presented to the office of Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas on behalf of 78 Palestinian organizations on Wednesday, Sept. 22. The right of Palestinian refugees to return to their land is central to the Palestinian struggle. To: President Mahmoud Abbas Chair of the Palestine Liberation Organization Executive Committee President of the Palestinian National Authority CC: League of Arab States Non-Aligned Movement Organization of the Islamic Conference Re: The Rights of Palestinian Refugees and the Final Status Negotiations Dear Mr. President, Greetings of Return We, the undersigned Palestinian refugee organizations, civil society movements and institutions in the Palestinian homeland and in exile are national organizations working to defend the right of return. We appeal to you now because we are convinced that the alignment of the official Palestinian position and the position of the Palestinian people with regards to the final status negotiation issues is of the highest priority. Foremost among these issues is the cause of the Palestinian refugees. We are convinced that the alignment of popular and official positions is the main guarantee of a strong Palestinian position in the current negotiation process, which is taking place in a local, regional and global context that jeopardizes the national rights of the Palestinian people. In this context, we are concerned in particular about the rights of Palest ...
FILE; SAMEH SHERIF/AFP/Getty Images The one-year anniversary of the Annapolis Conference is fast approaching and the forecast for peace between Israel and Palestine is looking cloudy at best. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert's quick retreat from the scene (he announced he would resign this month to deal with corruption charges) has stalled movement . And Palestinian President Authority Mahmoud Abbas told Ha'aretz that he is not happy with the lack of progress. Further complicating matters, Abbas's presidential term is up on Jan. 9, leaving the two-state solution table without its key players. The Palestinian media reported that Abbas plans to dissolve the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC), set up temporary government, and extend his term by a year. But Hamas has already said that it will not accept his leadership after Jan. 9. Without elections, under Palestinian law Abbas would be succeeded by either the speaker or the deputy speaker of the PLC. Both men, conveniently enough, are members of Hamas. U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice may be waxing optimistic that Annapolis's goals will be met in the coming months, but hearing that the IDF is already training units in the West Bank to prepare for the fallout in Abbas's absence, I'm thinking things are going to get worse before they get better. Memo to the next U.S. president: Don't wait until your seventh year in office to get things moving. ...
