I-16 Israels - Olmert scrambling to maintain HIS personal power

Olmert courts hard-line party in Israel JERUSALEM - With his political fortunes plummeting after the war in Lebanon, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is scrambling to shore up his rickety coalition by courting a hard-line party that favors redrawing Israel's borders to exclude Arab citizens......Bringing the Yisrael Beitenu party into the coalition would mark a sharp turn to the right for Olmert, who was elected on pledges to cede large parts of the West Bank, and could hurt already slim chances of restarting peace talks.....

Political power or peace??? What's his real agenda... Power!!!!! of course.. but he'll say it's peace that he can bring if HE has the POWER..... Yea Right! Where have I heard that before?
