Not-so-buried in the sand

Have you seen this story?

ISRAEL IS COMPLIMENTING PALESTINIAN SECURITY ON THEIR EFFICACY!!!

Isn't it grand? (Not to mention that the story made it into the BBC news!)

Fingers are still crossed, of course, but it appears that - lo and behold - an elected, pro-reason, pro-peace leader is getting results on behalf of decent Palestinians everywhere. I could burst out in song! Let's all send Mahmoud Abbas a huge thank-you vibe.

And kudos to Israel for their evenhandedness. It takes cool heads on both sides to make this sort of progress.
