It's beyond me why Israel didn't let out a collective breath of relief once something was about to be accomplished--instead, they rebuffed the acceptance of their own terms because it wasn't when they wanted it.
"remember that deal you offered us last year? let's do it"
"fuck no, should've taken it back then"
just doesn't seem very productive to me

Good question. I think it has something to do with 1) Israeli public losing faith in counting on Arafat to uphold his side of the deal and 2) Sharon never having that faith, as he was an opponent to the Taba offer.
