Ehud Olmert's valedictory Jewish New Year message

The answer to the problems of Israelis and Palestinians remains the same today as it was 20 years ago in the wake of the first intifada: two independent states based on the immutable bedrock of history, geography and justice – dividing one small country equitably between the two peoples who are now doomed to inhabit it. Olmert is absolutely right about that – even if his own convictions were too weak to guide him when he could still have made a difference.
