Barak to set out for Washington to discuss Israel-Palestinian crisis

Ehud Barak plans to fly to U.S. Saturday, where he will hold meetings with U.S. Defense Secretary, CIA Director and other officials, to discuss Palestinian crisis, Egypt situation and Iran.

Defense Minister Ehud Barak will set out for Washington on Saturday night, for a trip who's initial declared purpose is to meet with U.S. Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, CIA Director David Petraeus and other security and intelligence personnel.

Barak's schedule does not yet include a meeting with U.S. President Barack Obama before his meeting with Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu in New York on Tuesday. But senior government officials in the Obama administration are discussing the possibility of holding high level meetings to discuss means for solving the crisis with the Palestinians.

The U.S. will vote to veto a Palestinian state. It may not be enough to thwart the motion. Then what? What can the CIA, the Defense Department, the State Department, the White House do once it's a fait accompli?

Or that are not wanted to be blathered about in the media.
