Spinning the "Peace Process"

Akiva Eldar of Ha'aretz details the plan by Israel's supporters to spin the "road map" to peace in the Middle East. The memo from political strategist Frank Luntz discussed in the story is available here (as a PDF file).

In a related essay, Adam Hanieh and Catherine Cook argue that the road map "offers no new path forward, but simply repackages many of the flaws that led to the failure of the Oslo 'peace process' of the 1990s."
