When I read the coverage suggesting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's endorsement of a demilitarized Palestinian state was a major breakthrough in the "peace process," it struck me as the usual wishful thinking. The initial Palestinian reaction seems to confirm this view. Israelis and Palestinians are still very far apart on what a final agreement would look like, and it isn't clear that any Palestinian authority exists that is currently capable of delivering a lasting settlement.

The Palestinian reaction is no surprise.

Neither is the fact that those who claim to be encouraged refuse to acknowledge there is no one on the Palestinian side about to accept the continued existence of Israel.
