Reports have it that the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has dispatched defense minister Ehud Barak to Washington in the hope of reaching a compromise with the Obama administration regarding continued settlement expansion in the occupied West Bank.
Benjamin Netanyahu was earlier said to have declared the Obama call for total freeze of settlement construction as 'unreasonable'.
At this critical point in the discourse, it is important that the message coming out of Washington remains resolute, unequivocal, unambiguous..
In other words, it is important that Washington's talk continue to be driven by conviction..
..a conviction that a freeze on settlement expansion is in the interest of peace.
As tough as it may be, successfully making painful and difficult compromises serves to foster long term sustained acceptance and followed from that, long term mutual accommodation..
