Another hurdle down...

The Israeli cabinet is going to support Sharon in pulling back some settlements.

Truly good news... the settlements were a big issue with the Palestinians, and there was really little question that they were illegal in a big way. However, cabinet support was in doubt, particularly because the settlers are some of the craziest, most fundy people you can imagine (regardless of religion).

One other thing caught me about this story though... Sharon's eyes in the picture CNN used in their story:

I didn't know he had a lazy eye... or is he just trying to do his best Peter Faulk impression?
