What the Likkud statement on 'no Palestinian state' means: Hell if I know. Sorry, since I am not a skanky journalist, I don't pretend to know that which I do not. More than a few Kesher Talk readers and other commentators have suggested that it is part of the Netanyahu-Sharon struggle for power. Certainly, as my fiancee says, Bibi carries himself like he thinks he is still PM.

What it means for the larger issues at hand, I have little idea. Neither does anyone else.

But we do have responses. Jacob Weitz (The American Kaiser) writes an open letter to Likkud:
There will eventually be a Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza; the only question is when. You were not asked to endorse parameters for peace or boundaries for a future state. You were simply asked to approve a concept, an idea which is a fundamental part of the peace process and of the Likud Party's mission: peace with security.
See the rest on his blog.

I think I'll add him to the link list.
