Building up a Palestinian force capable of providing security and preventing militants from attacking Israel is a key part of a U.S.-backed push to revive peacemaking and meet Israeli security demands for ending its occupation.

Am I missing something, or aren't the Palestinian forces the very militants (read terrrorists) that are attacking Israel? Has someone slipped something in Bush's drink?

"Has someone slipped something in Bush's drink?"

No. Our more superior fellow constituents are only pushing the President to complete their anti-Israel part of our 2004 Republican Platform (under "Road Map"). ...except for the reneging on the part about moving our Embassy there to Jerusalem, of course. That's not going to happen, either, as our leadership is pushing Israel to split Jerusalem in preparation for Muslim takeover.
