New Poll: Peace In The Middle East By 2008?

For this week’s poll, with Seminal readers and writers so skeptical about a solution to the Israel/Palestine problem (96% of respondents said we won’t see any progress on a peace deal before Bush leaves office when we polled last), will the Israelis and Palestinians stick to the commitments they made during the Annapolis conference? But first, last week’s results:

Last week, we asked you about your Republican primary pick. Last time we ran a Republican straw poll back in June, Ron Paul won with 60% of the vote. This time (surprise!) Ron Paul again won, but with only 53% of the vote. Of course, most of the rest of the votes were for the option that said the respondent wasn’t voting in the Republican primary. No other Republican candidate managed to get more than 4% of Seminal reader support. As we all know, Ron Paul’s supporters are big online, and so the results of our online poll are no surprise. I wouldn’t be surprised if Paul won the actual New Hampshire primary as well.

This week, as the Annapolis Middle East peace conference winds down, do you think Israel and Palestine will stick to their commitments to fashion a solution to their problem by the end of 2008? Voting begins in the sidebar at right.
