 United Jerusalem - - Week in Review -- 5/15/2007
JERUSALEM, May 15 (Reuters) - Israel is pushing for changes to a stalled U.S. timeline calling for Israel and the Palestinians to take specific steps to bolster the prospects for peacemaking, officials close to the talks said.
The U.S. timeline had asked Israel to take several steps no later than Tuesday, from allowing the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt to operate five days a week to loosening restrictions on Palestinian travel in the Jordan Valley.
Israel´s main objections to the U.S. timeline have centred on two of the 27 so-called "benchmarks" asked of Olmert: the removal of checkpoints around the West Bank city of Nablus by June 15 and the establishment of a bus convoy service between Gaza and the West Bank on July 1.
