Obama envoy: Two-state solution is only solution

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — A Palestinian state alongside Israel is the only way to end the Mideast conflict, President Barack Obama's Mideast point man said Friday, sending a stern message to Israel's hardline leaders, who have expressed misgivings about a two-state solution.

Envoy George Mitchell, in the region on his third trip since Obama took office in late January, suggested the U.S. was eager to see quick progress after years of failed peace efforts.
