(Jerusalem Post) Hilary Leila Krieger - The U.S. does not see solving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as a magic bullet for resolving the region's other woes, a top White House official said Monday. "We do not believe that resolving this conflict will bring an end to all conflicts in the Middle East," Dan Shapiro, the National Security Council's senior director for the Middle East, told an Anti-Defamation League conference. Shapiro also emphasized that "we do not believe that this conflict endangers the lives of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq." Shapiro explained that the U.S. thinks that "depriving Iran of a conflict it can exploit by arming their terrorist proxies is very much in our national interests," and that images broadcasting Palestinian state-building rather than suffering "would do much to transform attitudes positively and deprive extremists of an evocative propaganda tool." He further noted that "a solution cannot be imposed on the parties from the outside. Peace can only come from direct talks." 2010-05-04 08:51:38Full Article
