The U.S., as it continues to engage, faces the danger of becoming part of the furniture if George Mitchell begins making monthly visits during a period of minimal possibility for progress. "One or two listening tours will do," says Rob Malley of the International Crisis Group, "But at a certain point it will become better not to go than to go."
