Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said the U.S. was engaged in "extremely intensive" diplomacy with Israel, the Palestinians and the other governments gathered in New York for the annual U.N.

They also insist that the US economy is aces and that they have an easy ride to reelection. Why shouldn't they be peddling this garbage as well?

The headline makes it sound like he wants to salvage the crisis, like keep it going. Could be the badly written headline is unintentionally more accurate than the story itself.

It’s like Al Gore saying “I don’t feel anything other than optimisitic” during the 2000 Florida recount. Probably a headline typo, but a perfect fusion of optimistic and parasitic.
