		<description><![CDATA[The US and Israel have both been intent on forestalling the appearance of the Palestinian Authority before the UN, in case it succeeded in winning support for its unilateral declaration of Palestinian independence. This is a reversal of history: in 1948, the US regarded the prospect of an Israeli declaration of independence as a threat to its interests in the region, and the State Department, Defence Department and CIA were worried about such an outcome.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What will the Palestinians do at the UN in September? The question appears to haunt Washington and Tel Aviv as they prepare to block Palestinian attempts to obtain UN recognition, as though the very idea of such action represents a form of political impudence that merits the harshest international rejection. Sober accounts by Palestinians of what they may expect from a trip to the UN have done little to allay the dark cloud of suspicion that is fostered in mainstream accounts.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Does history matter? Over the course of the past few months the Obama administration has abandoned its putative efforts to engage Israel and the Palestinians in peace talks after their collapse in the face of Israel's continued settlement building on the West Bank. At the popular level and in the mainstream media, the response was one of familiar frustration with the allegedly intractable Israeli-Palestinian conflict... In practice, the core issues have remained the same for over 60 years, with the role of the United States and U.S. interests, including defense industries — major components in perpetuating the conflict — expanding over the course of that period.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There was a revealing interlude in mid-September 2007, when the former Federal Reserve Chair, Alan Greenspan, was quoted in The Washington Post of Sept.17, 2007, as saying that "the removal of Saddam Hussein had been ‘essential' to secure world oil supplies...." Greenspan's statement, that "the prime motive for the war in Iraq was oil," apparently shocked the White House, leading an anonymous White House official to explain, "well, unfortunately, we can't talk about oil." The former Federal Reserve Chair was already on record as conceding that he was ‘saddened that it was "politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil.]]></description>
