    Larry -- While it may be true that we don?t really know what we?re doing over there, it is also quite obvious, based on what has been going on there for at least the period since the end of World War I, that they don?t either. And we do have a vital interest in what is going on there, as this dispute could easily spin out of control and lead to wider war (as it has nearly done on more than one occasion). So, maybe we need to stop saying nothing can be done and roll up our sleeves and do the best we can. Sen. Kerry and Secretary General Ban are good men, and I believe they are giving Israelis and Arabs good advice.
