Just so you you know...

This is not a Middle Eastern politics blog. Nor is it even a foreign policy blog. It just so happens that my first day back blogging this huge story of incredible interest to me comes across. Perhaps I'm just exaggerating it a bit, but this is the biggest shift of the sand in the Middle Eastern peace process, possibly since the assassination of Yitzak Rabin. Perhaps the beginning of the second infadta or even Sharon's coma. But, I don't know. This just seems bigger. I will get on to other issues, trust me. But, for now, I want to cover this story as well as possible. Hang in there if you're bored of this, because I'm not quite yet.
