NP Bush's "plan"

[Doug Millison]

"[...] The great stupidity of Bush's speech, of course, is that he calls
upon a people who hate him -- and see him as unabashedly pro-Israel -- to
take his paternalistic-sounding advice. [...] Bush's call for Arafat's
removal is the mark of a grossly immature statesman. Good diplomacy means
finding solutions to a conflict, even a stalemated one, rather than
childishly asking for a new partner. You can't call for a leader's ouster
when he doesn't do what you want. [...]"
