Israel blinks

On the eve of a new US President, Israel has blinked, and is accelerating a pullout from Gaza, with the goal of completely withdrawing before Barack Obama is sworn in at noon tomorrow.

Unlike the past few weeks, where we had a "when the cat is away" scenario, with Bush as the lamest of ducks, we now have a President who is willing to re-engage in the Middle East.

Even though people think this is a great thing, it's not. They will fight again and Obama will be tested.
