"Israel has resumed building one of the most controversial parts of its West Bank barrier, deep in occupied land, in a move Palestinians say clouds new President Mahmoud Abbas's efforts to revive peacemaking.
[...]
'How we are going to convince our people and factions that we are trying to end Israeli occupation while Israel is imposing facts on the ground,' Palestinian cabinet minister Saeb Erekat said.

'This will have a deep and negative impact on our efforts to reach a ceasefire.'"

That's Bubba Logic for you. Sharon claims that the suicide bombings are holding off any peace agreements then goes ahead to do everything in his powers to be sure that the bombings continue. And the US in all of this? It's not our fault, of course -- we're just bankrolling the whole deal.
