U.S. Mideast Envoy Resigns After 2 Years of Frustration

With Bibi coming to Washington - he meets with Obama on May 20 and will address a joint session of Congress on May 24 - the news of George Mitchell's resignation does not buoy my spirits.

Update: Mitchell's resignation takes effect on May 20, the day Bibi visits the White House. I'm sure that it's just one of those funny coincidences.
