The breakdown that began with Camp David may have set the peace process back years, and Israel appears poised to elect another right-wing government committed to hitting the rewind button while Palestinian public opinion hardens against compromises with Israel. Moreover, the moderate Arab regimes on which Washington has traditionally relied to provide political cover for Arafat are themselves under increasing domestic pressure to distance themselves from Israel and the U.S. While a comprehensive peace appears beyond reach in the near...
