But I'd love to be wrong. I love your final point -- suppose some Mossad operatives pretended to be Hamasniks and gave a press conference, in Arabic, <i>while wearing guns and masks/i>. Who would doubt them? I have wondered for a while how Palestinians hope to govern themselves, when their strongest leaders are apparently afraid to show their faces in public. That's not how you build a society; that's how you perpetuate a reign of terror. Judging by the results of the recent Palestinian elections, that seems to be what they want. God help them. respectfully, Daniel in Brookline </i> I must say, Roger, I’m not as confident as you that Olmert is outflanking Hamas and the Palestinians. But I’d love to be wrong.
