good morning, ambassador. >> good morning, eric. glad to be with you. >> do you think this news of new talks starting perhaps tuesday or wednesday in washington is a major breakthrough or will likely lead to more disappointment? >> i think it's about like winning an intense game of cribbage. look, the prospects of any real progress between israeli and palestinian is effectively zero for a variety of political and strategic reasons we could spend a lot of time listing. nobody, i think, including secretary kerry is really optimistic about that. all he has succeeded in getting really, as we say in diplomacy, talks about talks. there comes with these talks a cost. there's a risk that further undermining the legitimacy, whatever little is left, of the palestinian authority. and there's an opportunity cost for the united states of spending as much time as the administration has this last six months on getting this meeting in washington to the detriment of everything else going on around the world. particularly in the middle east. iran, sy
