Hmm?

The Fatal Quiet: Netanyahu Leaves Divided Israel for Europe Trip - SPIEGEL ONLINE - News - International: "Segev sounds skeptical, almost resigned. Is there no glimmer of hope on the horizon? Yes, there is, he says: Marwan Barghouti. Sentenced to life in prison for three murders, the Palestinian leader has been in an Israeli prison since 2002. But he is believed to have become increasingly moderate and have developed into a proponent of peace. At the Fatah congress in early August, Barghouti, 50, was voted into the party's central committee with the third-largest number of votes of all candidates."

This article argues that Netanyahu has divided Israel, which is a lie, because it was divided already at the election. People here in Sweden and in Germany do not seem to understand, or accept rather, that Israel moved to the right. Democratically. Some see the status quo as good because they have problems understanding how peace would materialize, others see people like Barghouti as future partners for peace.
