Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak gets it about right when he says that the make up of the current Israeli government is not conducive to peace-making.
In an interview with Channel 10 news, he said:
We must find a way to progress and avoid being being isolated. I am not sure that this government can move forward. Barak said that the government structure is not suitable for progress in the negotiations: "Until now I could not change the situation from within. I see this as the reason to stay in government. I have not significantly changed my position on how the final arrangement will look, there is not much difference between the proposal at Camp David and today."
According to Barak, Israel has a lot to lose from continuing to be passive.
So, Ehud, why are you and your four fellow splitters still in the government? What exactly do you stand for?

Well, Milligramsam didn't yet wake up to criticise Gaddafi for murdering more civilians than Israel killed terrorists during the Cast Lead operation...
So Ehud Barak maybe still makes some kind of nightmare about Israel. But anyway, he should stick to realities: and the reality is that, to make peace, two partners are needed. As the 'Palestinian' side is still missing in action, there is no need for Israel to worry about peace. There won't be any, whatever Israel does.
