	The Way to Peace Emerged at Madrid: A Decade Since the 1991 Madrid Conference, by Eytan Bentsur
		The Madrid process sought to take into account the aspirations of the parties, their security requirements, their readiness for mutual reconciliation, and, most of all, their reciprocal need to compromise.
		Madrid's participants knew from the beginning that even if the journey down this road had begun, there were no shortcuts to peace.
		We knew that the Madrid Conference was the starting point of a long road that, on the horizon, would lead to the squaring of circles and the eventual bridging of presently polarized positions in order to forge a comprehensive peace.

	Excerpts From Speeches at Madrid Peace Conference
		This conference cannot impose a settlement on the participants or veto agreements and just as important, the conference can only be reconvened with the consent of every participant.
		The composition of the participants as well as the nature and objectives of this conference are eloquent testimony to the fact that we are participants in an event of major importance in new world politics.
		Its apparent, though artificial, exclusion from this conference is a denial of its right to seek peace and redemption, for it too had suffered from war and occu0pation.

	TESOL Spain
		TESOL Spain is best known for its fantastic regional and national conferences, which gather in the best English teachers and authors from around the world and Spain to give conferences on a variety of TEFL related subjects.
		A TESOL conference in Spain is a reaffirmation of what it means to be a “professional English teacher;” whatever that is. And this means quite a lot to a lot of people, but not to everybody and not even to most.
		The reality of the situation is that even as a beginning teacher you may well get to be the most experienced teacher on your second-rate academy’s staff by your second or third year there because of their MIA career prospects and consequent high turnover rate.

		Even before the conference could start, however, Powell was already trying to lower expectations saying, "I have never approached [the $36 billion figure] as a goal that has to be reached," even as he later on sternly urged the participants to give "substantially".
		Despite these arrangements, the organizers strove to project the conference as a gathering of the generous, not as the multilateral division of spoils that it turned out to be.
		The message was well heard: a Spanish delegate to the investors' conference said that with all the things he's been hearing, he's not all that excited about Iraq.
