It was an important meeting between two very important people - a president whose time has passed and a prime minister whose time hasn't come yet. What Ehud Olmert will do with his time, and what time will do to Olmert, is something that only time will tell. Because time, as everyone knows, does what the brain keeps us from doing.
Now the political pundits will peck at every crumb that falls from George Bush's mouth, as if he is the one who decides, and not the global and regional reality that decides for him. "Bold ideas," said the president. "Positive ideas," he added for good measure. |

SARAH EL DEEB GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) - Israeli forces entered deep into the Gaza Strip early Tuesday for the first time since Israel's summer withdrawal from the coastal area, battling gunmen and killing four Islamic Jihad militants who planned to fire rockets, the army and Palestinian security officials said.
The troops entered about 3 kilometres into the coastal area, marking a change in the way the army has operated since its withdrawal from Gaza in September. Until now, soldiers have only entered a few metres into Gaza, searching for mines along the border fence, but avoiding operations deep in the coastal area. |
