If they invited me on the topic of who speaks for the Pals at the negotiating table it would be a one minute session:

Hamas, Hizbullah, PA, Islamic Jihad, Martyr Brigades, Saudis, Syrian, Lebanese, Iraqis, Turks, Egyptians, Yemenis, Pakistanis, Libyans and an entire coterie of the best Europeans money can buy.

Hey, but I am sure when you summon the experts you can have one of those all day onanistic sessions instead.
