Powell Seeks Arafat Aid on Terror, Warns of 'Cliff'
Powell appealed for all countries, including Arab nations, "to step up now and insist that the terror perpetrated by organizations such as Hamas must come to an end" and he denied that the road map has come to an end.
"The alternative is what? Just more death and destruction, let the terrorists win, let those who have no interest in a Palestinian state win, let those who have no interest but killing innocent people win? No. That is not an acceptable outcome," he said. "Both parties realize it and I think both sides should recommit themselves to finding a way forward."
If anybody can find a way forward, it's gotta be Cliff Clavin.
