James Bennet in tomorrow’s New York Times has an extremely optimistic assessment of Israel’s position: “Israelis Sense They’ve Won”:
“Israeli officials are expressing growing confidence that after 33 months they have defeated the Palestinian uprising, or intifada.”
There’s lots more; check it out. The Trunk is our house pessimist on these matters, so rather than critique Bennet’s assessment, I’ll wait for him to weigh in.
