Katsav: We got nothing from conceding

Failure to first agree on a blueprint for Israel's vital interests, and then to carry out orderly staffwork, said the president, had led to "three big mistakes" in the past 13 years.

"We didn't get anything in return for the Oslo accords," he said, stressing that he was not saying he opposed the accords per se.

Similarly, with the Road Map, "the Knesset and government declared that we support the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. That is a major, historic concession and we didn't get anything for it. And I'm not opposed to the road map."

Finally, as regards last summer's disengagement, which again he stressed he did not oppose in principle, "here too, there was a big mistake.

We took the army out of Gaza, we evacuated 25 Jewish settlements and we got nothing in return."

I'm glad someone has some decent reality testing there!
