What a Shock ! There is still no progress between Israel And Palestine .
And there never will be , not when each side Blames each other for all the problems !
....
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Washington's peace envoy ended a week of shuttle diplomacy in the Middle East on Friday with little yet to show for his efforts as Israel and the Palestinians dug in to opposing positions on Jewish settlements.
U.S. President Barack Obama may yet host a summit next week with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas during the U.N. General Assembly in New York. But his envoy George Mitchell has more work to do before any substantive resumption of peace negotiations.
Each side blamed the other for failure, but pledged to keep talking. Neither is keen to refuse Obama's invitation, but on both sides officials acknowledge that a photograph and handshake at the United Nations will not be enough to relaunch the peace process without substantial shifts in negotiating positions.
