Mitchell: Neither Side Wants to Stop Direct Talks
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - One Israeli government source said Netanyahu is not actively lobbying ministers yet to support a two-month extension of the settlement freeze in exchange for various U.S. security and diplomatic commitments because there is no concrete proposal yet on the table. U.S. envoy George Mitchell said that both Israel and the PA "have asked us to continue these discussions in an effort to establish the conditions under which they can continue direct negotiations....They both want to continue these negotiations, they do not want to stop the talks."
