More "Flexible"?

While on the one hand, Barak Ravid writes:

Quartet 'giving up hope' of renewing Israeli-Palestinian talks

Quartet representatives say differences between Israel and Palestinians are far too wide to get negotiations back on track; since Itamar attack, Netanyahu refraining from speaking of need to advance peace process.

Reading there further, I see this:

The envoys from the Quartet arrived in Israel last Thursday and met separately with Israelis and Palestinian representatives. In addition to Molcho, Israel was represented by the deputy legal adviser at the Foreign Ministry, Daniel Taub, and the head of the Israel Defense Force's strategic planning unit, Brig. Gen. Assaf Orion. The Palestinians were represented by Saeb Erekat, despite his resignation as chief Palestinian negotiator over the controversy sparked by the leak to the media of Palestinian documents related to the peace negotiations.

Unlike prior rounds of negotiations, the Israeli delegation came better prepared this time and presented more flexible positions. Molcho told the envoys that Israel would soon take steps on the ground to demonstrate its commitment to concluding a final peace agreement with the Palestinians.
