The Palestinian Election

The election of Abbas indeed offers some hope as reflected in this editorial from The Times of London:
"The Palestinian elections offer a glimmer of hope for peace....Hope, exhilaration and relief are all too rare in the Palestinian territories. But after yesterday's election in the West Bank and Gaza, there was a palpable feeling that something had changed."

As Krauthammer and others have pointed out this will not be a smooth road to peace but let's have hope.
