/ BARAK / 15 By November, even his Foreign Minister, David Levy, was making noises about quitting. He said it would be a waste of time to stay in the cabinet if it was going to bring the peace process to a halt. I warned Bibi, both in the Knesset and in a series of speeches, abo...
/ BARAK /9 seemed to defeat the purpose of going into politics in the first place. Still, I had no appetite for rushing into a challenge to Peres’s leadership, both because it was bound to be difficult for both of us, and frankly because it seemed rash, premature and maybe even...

/ BARAK / 47 Whether the stories were true wouldn’t matter. They would still make the real bargaining necessary for peace far more difficult, perhaps even impossible. I also had doubts whether Assad was ready for real peace: embassies, open borders, personal contact between Syr...
