...both the Israeli and the Palestinian sides, now, the political initiative is increasingly in the hands of those least inclined to make peace. Arafat and Sharon both proclaim their desire to implement the Mitchell Report, but their interpretations of the report's proposals are so divergent that in the absence of a referee decisively laying down the law, both sides' stated support for Mitchell's proposals has little meaning in reality.

But if this gives you the image of a bunch of spotty geeks in glasses sitting behind picnic tables grinning disturbingly at you over piles of CD cases, you couldn't be more off base...
