  day 74/reason 27: W is not helping Israeli-Palestinian conflict

Although he gave lots of lip service to the "roadmap", Bush has not really demonstrated a committment to helping solve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and in fact has probably thrown fuel on the flame with the Iraq war.

Today the BBC reports that Palestinians are angry that Bush hasn't denounced new plans for building in Israeli settlements, even though such activity is banned in the roadmap. The administration apparently said they needed to "study the details" of the new settlement plan.
