A Glimmer of Hope in Palestine

The Times yesterday had an article and a leader about how things are getting better in Palestine.

Let’s hope so!

They give the credit to Salam Fayyad, who has been concentrating on economic development of the country.

They sum it all up with this last paragraph.

Mr Fayyad’s efforts are embattled and small-scale, but they are far from futile. They exemplify the principle that statecraft is better practised by improving people’s lives than by promoting sweeping revolutionary schemes. They are a good deed in a weary region.

 I wish Mr. Fayyad well.

But perhaps he may turn out to be the right person in the right place at the right time! Palestine and the world for that matter needs a great statesman to move things forward.
