From my reading of George W. Bush's trip to the middle east, it appears that he is trying to create his presidential legacy by forcing a peace treaty between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
Report: Bush ordered IDF to be used to soften Hamas in Gaza for Abbas
Bush is pressing Israel to send the Israeli Defense Forces into certain parts of Gaza, on a limited scale, to "soften up" hamas (but not to stop daily rocket attacks on Israeli civilians). After hamas is softened up the other palestinian terrorists can then come in and take over (i.e. fatah and the holocaust denier Mahmoud Abbas). Then the Israelis will be pressured into more "land-for-peace" bullshit.
I'm getting sick and tired of the US dictating to the Israelis what they can do, both politically and militarily. All the Jew-haters I know tell me that the "evil Jooooooooooooooos" run the American government. However, based on how the US government is continually tying the hands of the Israelis and the IDF in their war on terror, I have to respectfully disagree.
