RAMALLAH, West Bank — International diplomatic officials handed a long-awaited Mideast peace plan to region leaders Wednesday, just hours after Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas (search) was sworn in and a homicide bomber killed three bystanders and injured 50 more at a Tel Aviv bar.
The U.S.-backed "road map" - a peace plan for the region - was drafted by the United States, European Union, United Nations and Russia.
It calls for an immediate cease-fire, a crackdown on Palestinian militias, an Israeli withdrawal from Palestinian towns and the dismantling of Jewish settlements erected since 2001. A Palestinian state with provisional borders could be established by year's end, with full statehood possible within three years, according to the timetable............
The article basically went on to say that both parties are in agreement that it is a workable plan -
Their only concerns seem to be Arafat - It seems that he is the basic block to anything constructive ever happening to bring about a lasting peace . Maybe he needs to go somewhere on a long vacation.......and not come back.
