Olmert calls for end to extremism -- Israel

Analysis:
Olmert's speech: Old wine, new bottle - Olmert's speech
came at a time when the region, thanks to the fanaticism of
key players like Iran, Hizbullah and Hamas, seems perched
on the edge of an abyss - Olmert seemed to be giving up idea
of "Greater Israel" and endorsing Palestinian State
in evacuated territories

would lead to a two-state solution'
