Shouldn`t a template for baby steps along the road to an eventual peace treaty and two-state solution follow the example of Egypt and Jordan, who have treaties and diplomatic relations with Israel?

Tackle the problems one at a time beginning with Syria, and if that proves to be successful, move on to Lebanon. Save the tough nuts -- the Gaza Strip and the West Bank -- to be cracked last.

Zvi Bar`el offers no solutions -- merely chronicles obstacles.
