WSIS the Peace Summit?
There's an interesting twist to the recent Geneva meetings for the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS); Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon has been invited by Tunisian president ben Ali to partitipate in the summit, and Sharon has accepted. This would mark the first official visit by an Israeli prime minister to a North African country. It certainly would be amazing if WSIS helped the Mideast peace process, along with helping bridge the digital divide, though both prospects may seem like wishful thinking to the cynics among us... -andy
