This one is obviously pro-pal/anti-zionist, yet it still makes some valid points.

I think she's absolutely correct that this agreement is a significant setback for the prospect of a Palestinian state. Even though it has Israel formally signing on to a nominal roadmap for the first time since Oslo, the interim step of having Gaza be re-occupied by a U.S.-led multinational governing body is incompatible with Palestinian autonomy. And the milestones for removing the "interim" governing body are so nebulous (and perhaps unattainable) that this is unlikely to change.

But again, a lot depends on whether Hamas goes quietly or not. Early indications suggest they won't, but we'll see.
