Pardon me for making a mistake. Ehud Barak was a member of the Labor Party. But what happened in 2008 when Ehud Olmert, a Likud Praty member, made substantially the same offer to Mahmoud Abbas?
My mistake does not change the fact that Likud members have been willing to compromise the ideals that Trackfan attributes to them. Thus, my assertion was correct, but the evidence provided was incorrect. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to correct my mistake.

If you check my post history, you'll see that I've always given Labor and Meretz credit for being serious about peace, but Likud has never been serious about making the Palestinians a serious offer, because their charter won't allow it. Also, Olmert was a member of Kadima in 2008, not Likud. In 2006, there was a split in Likud between those like Olmert who were interested in peace and those like Bibi who weren't, and the "peacemakers" left Likud to form Kadima, which is to the right of Labor and to the left of Likud. However, Olmert was a lameduck on his way to prison for corruption, so he never had the political backing to close the deal.

Livni had to call an election to seek a new mandate because Olmert's napkin map included parts of East Jerusalem and Shas had threatened to pull out of Kadima's coalition? Livni lost the election to Bibi, who broke off that round of negotiations and started Cast Lead?
