Martin Indyk Threatens Up the Wrong Tree

That's the best that Martin Indyk can do? Veiled threats and ominous warnings?

The shift in America's Middle East interests means that Netanyahu must make a choice: Take on the president of the United States, or take on his right wing. If he continues to defer to those ministers in his cabinet who oppose peacemaking, the consequences for US-Israel relations could be dire.

I've lost count of the number of times Netanyahu has said publicly, out loud, into a microphone, "We want peace. Any time, any place, we'll sit and talk peace." The Arabs have yet to make an appointment. Netanyahu imposed a building freeze on a huge portion of his voter base, lets Barak send 50-man teams to bulldoze patios, yet the premise of Netanyahu's supposed recalcitrance and warmongering seems to be the only talking point Indyk can remember.
