Governments. You mentioned going to the arab regimes at the u. N. There have been lots of changes in the last several years of those government and i am wondering if you can give us an overview of where palestine stands in terms of those governments that are trying very hard to win support in washington particularly. Thank you very much for your time. Im with the institute of palestine studies. One question i know we are talking about the new leadership in the u. S. But there is also new leadership at the United Nations. The new secretarygeneral starting january. How is the palestinian leadership feeling about any roles he might have regarding a more active, more serious approach dealing with palestine. Thank you. Go ahead. Work the United Nations commission of refugees. From my perspective, it seems like there is already two states that exist in palestine. It is just that the Actual Community might not recognize it, but i believe you are in the same position as africa was under aparth

Ideology it would be nice to think we can bring them back in an ideological struggle. Im somewhat skeptical of that. I think for those who are truly committed this is a fight. As colonel price correctly points out, i dont know how many nazis were left in germany in terms of the mindset at the end of world war ii, but it lacked the military capacity to inflict that on other nations, so it was defeated. In so far as these particular adversaries not accepting that defeat, whether they accept it or not, what we want to do is blunt their capacity to impose it on others. With regard to the various models of u. S. Intervention, i dont think under any circumstances, however exquisite our counterterrorism strategies are, u. S. Troops in a foreign country killing local people is not going to be a winning formula.
