...here, beyond the reach of postal cookies (one never can trust customs inspectors with cookies anyway), it is nice to know a little flour, a few nuts and the essential raspberry jam can bring a taste of home to a bachelor pad halfway across the world.

He joked with the parties, "I've kept you so long, you have a right to ask me for territory." Clinton got Arafat to accept Netanyahu's five security demands, but that afternoon Bibi put forward a kitchen-sink collection of complaints. Once the core security problems were solved, it was clear to Clinton that two emotional issues were blocking progress. For the Palestinians, it was the release of prisoners held in Israeli jails...
