国际英语新闻：Israeli PM: no guaranteed success in talks

Palestinians officials in recent days called on the United States to force Israel to continue a self-imposed construction freeze in the West Bank after the September 26 deadline.

This is the first time Netanyahu has used the recently-launched YouTube video sharing site page to offer the traditional New Year' s greetings. In years past prime ministers would address the nation via live a television broadcast.

The PMO also recently launched a Twitter and Facebook page to get out information more directly to the public, leapfrogging more traditional press coverage.
