| Quartet Reports Progress on Roadmap for Resolving Middle East Crisis |
| 2002-12-21 |
| United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan today said the diplomatic Quartet on the Middle East - comprising the UN, European Union, Russian Federation and United States - was "very close" to finalizing a roadmap for resolving the regions crisis, which it will soon present to the Israelis and Palestinians. "Okay! The peace processor's all ready to go. Ready to plug it in? Okay, all you Zionists and Paleos, hop in!" Speaking to reporters before the Quartets meeting in Washington, D.C., with US President George W. Bush, the Secretary-General said that the group believes the roadmap "can help bring about the vision of two States, Israel and Palestine, living side-by-side." Powell no doubt said that with a straight face. Somehow, various parties have been "making progress toward peace" in the Middle East since 1973. Nobody ever seems to get there, except for all the corpses, and that's just because they don't care anymore. |

| #1 The most consistently hoaky comment always comes after some Paleo outrage when "the world" asks Israel not to retalite for fear of "derailing the peace process"! I think the tracks were ripped up and sold for scrap long ago. |
