Elliott Abrams’ advice to Obama team

Elliott Abrams, a top Mideast strategist for the Bush Administration, sets forth in the Weekly Standard his advice for the Obama team on Israeli-Palestinian issues. He says “it is time to face certain facts: We are not on the verge of Israeli-Palestinian peace; a Palestinian state cannot come into being in the near future; and the focus should be on building the institutions that will allow for real Palestinian progress in the medium or longer term.”
