Stardate 20011129.0555 (On Screen): Prime Minister Sharon continues to insist that before there can be any negotiations with the Palestinians, that there must be one week with no violence. That guarantees that it won't happen. The Palestinians do not speak with a unified voice. They are not unified in any important regard. Among them are some who do not want negotiations -- and Sharon has now given them veto power. All they have to do is to keep inciting violent confrontations with Israel, and negotiations will never happen.
