“As for that famous “peace treaty” with Egypt often touted as proof of the possibilities of a negotiated settlement, the fall of Mubarak is making it increasingly clear that it was merely a 30-year cold truce purchased with the Sinai’s oil fields and the $2 billion a year in U.S. aid.

The idea that conflicts between peoples can be resolved by diplomatic negotiation has frequently been a dangerous delusion. Duplicitous states bargain in bad faith, using the process to buy time and mask their aggression. States unwilling or unable to use force will make diplomacy an excuse to substitute words for deeds.

But the Soviets did what their interests required when the alternative seemed less acceptable, and negotiation was merely a technical adjunct.”

This was not the new creative approach we were promised a month ago before his vacation, actually there was nothing new in his plan, this was more of a DVD of Barack Obama’s Greatest Hits. I think the Obama is fully aware that the bulk of his plan will be thrown crapper. There is no way way it gets passed by either the House or the Senate. It is also interesting that Obama started and ended by saying that his proposal was not political.

Rick Perry may come to be known as “Governor Provocative-Language or Gov. PL” for short by Americans desperate for some actual leadership for a change.
