Mr. Bush announces a major Middle East peace conference and the response is somewhat underwhelming, all right I'm being polite, the response is laughable. Israel will not discuss, borders, Jerusalem or refugees (Palestinians). Hamas will not be invited which, considering they already declined the offer, is obfuscation of a high order. Syria may or may not come depending on the agenda and Egypt is fence-sitting as usual. That would leave Condi, Fatah and a low level Israeli delegation left to discuss what exactly, the weather?
Tony Snow, who is becoming more obtuse and deceitful with each passing second, provides the matrix necessary to understand our administrations intentions and goals with regards to this 'conference':
The White House moved to douse expectations. "I think a lot of people are inclined to try to treat this as a big peace conference. It's not," Tony Snow, the White House's press secretary, told reporters.
So what is it? It's a distraction is what it is... from this, this and this.
