Sticking point on 'settlement freeze': Obama won't put it in writing

Based on a report by Shimon Schiffer in the Hebrew daily Yedioth Aharonoth, fellow Israeli blogger Arlene Kushner reports what is apparently the main sticking point (other than length) in the negotiations over a 'settlement freeze.' Shimon Schiffer, in Yediot Ahronot today, says the US wants a two year freeze because Obama figures that's how long forging a peace deal will take (in his dreams).
