- If you read the Camp David accords, you will find out that very little
- of what they call for has actually happened. In addition to the
- actual peace between Israel and Egypt, the Camp David agreement calls
- for a transitional Palestinian administration of the West Bank and
- Gaza. The transitional period was to have lasted no more than five
- years, then full autonomy was to take place, pending Israeli,
- Egyptian, and Jordanian approval.
-
- Somehow, I think that the US was cheated on this deal. We paid for a
- Palestinian state, and we didn't get one. We ought to ask for our
- money back.
