...namely that of mediator between two sides that harbor intense hate for one another-a gulf of bad blood, violence, and massacres. The United States did not impose the first disengagement agreement: she intervened to achieve a breakthrough and overcome the apparent impasse. The heading of the first disengagement document reads: American Proposal. Hence my assertion that the United States holds 99% of the cards in this game.
