	<p>Michael Oren said on Tuesday that the US had agreed with Israel to a temporary halt to settlement building activity in the Palestinian West Bank and East Jerusalem, rather than a total freeze.</p>
	<p>&#8220;The agreement was a time-limited halt &#8211; or a pause, if you will &#8211; to the settlement construction, that would allow for a certain amount of what we would call &#8216;certain life growth&#8217; in the territories,&#8221; Oren said.</p>
	<p>Snip</p>
	<p>Sometimes the only option for Analysis the Mid East is total despair. To limit a Likud government to &#8220;natural growth&#8221; viz the settlement is to impose no limits at all. This is a favorite con of Likud governments going all the way back to Menachem Begin. It is a loophole that the Israeli government will drive untold number of moving vans through.
