Two stories in Haaretz today:

Israel's UN ambassador: Netanyahu committed to peace

Netanyahu, Lieberman 'struck secret deal for West Bank construction'

Netanyahu is as committed to peace as Olmert, Livni, Peres, or Barak, i.e. ready willing and able to mouth platitudes for public consumption while acting to make sure there is no practical way for it to come about. Naturally, the top story was covered by the NYT, while the second, not.
