"There should be an end to the occupation that began in 1967. The agreement must establish Palestine as a homeland for the Palestinian people, just as Israel is a homeland for the Jewish people. These negotiations must ensure that Israel has secure, recognized, and defensible borders. And they must ensure that the state of Palestine is viable, contiguous, sovereign, and independent."

Well this is a stunner. I wonder how long it will take before this gets spun into something completely different from that statement. If he actually sticks with it and pushes it hard, W could get something in the plus column. Unfortunately given his history, that's about as likely as Nixon coming back from the grave and saying what was really in those lost 18 1/2 minutes of tape.
