Friedman: Fayyad and Iran have plans, US does not

There are five key actors in the Israeli-Palestinian equation today. Two of them -- the Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad and the alliance of Iran, Hamas and Hezbollah -- have clear strategies. These two are actually opposed, but one of them will shape Israeli-Palestinian relations in the coming years; indeed, their showdown is nearing. I hope Fayyad wins. It would be good for Israel, America and the moderate Arabs. But those three need their own strategy to make it happen.
