U.S. Envoy To Press Israel To Take Risks
November 30, 2007
Predicting potentially grave security consequences for Israel, defense officials responded pessimistically Thursday to news that former NATO commander and retired US general James Jones had been tapped by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice as the new special envoy to coordinate security between Israel and the Palestinians.
A senior defense official involved in talks with the Palestinians said that Jones was likely to invest most of his efforts in pressuring Israel to concede to the Palestinians and taking risks on issues of security.
“Another envoy is not what is needed now,” the official said. “Both sides know what needs to be done, the problem is that due to everything else that is going on - including Hamas’s control over Gaza and the current coalition in Israel - things are stuck.”
