A Hot Time in the Old Settlement Tonight

In case you missed it, Ariel Sharon just got approval from the Knesset to remove the settlers from the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Believe me, this is not going to be the death knell of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict, but removing the antagonistic settlers from the mix will make it easier to have a more reasonable conversation.

As loathe as I am in general to praise the man, kudos to Sharon for risking a possible Likkud mutiny to take a step in the right direction.
