This does nothing but acknowledge that such acts of terrorism, if sustained long enough, will make us want to give in and negotiate. Which, in turn, simply encourages more acts of terrorism by other factions who want to get us to talk to them as well.
It’s ludicrous, naive policy and something tells me that the Israelis don’t really mind Bush using the anniversary of their country to call Obama out on it.
