		<description>&lt;p&gt;This is the telling sentence: &quot;AIPAC and the Conference of Presidents, are for &#039;the peace process,&#039; but have done all they can to limit abridgments of Israel&#039;s &#039;power and territory.&#039;&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;When those entities define Israel&#039;s territory as being in the West Bank (and they do if we judge by their actions and not just their words) then the peace process is meaningless.  It is totally absurd to continue supporting a &quot;peace process&quot; where the stated goals of building two states is already negated by the Israelis from the beginning.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;That is why we must drop the two state solution.  Working for that goal simply provides the Israelis cover to increase their settlements, to continue building facts on the ground.  The negotiations have been going on for 16 and that is their only result.  To continue is to continue the charade, but more distructively, put off until some undefined future for the Palestinians are allowed freedom and civil liberties.  That should be the goal today. Work for Palestinian freedom and civil liberties, not obstruction, delay and charades.&lt;/p&gt;
