It was another sleepless night for all sides as the game of brinkmanship at Camp David wore on into the wee hours of the morning.

The White House describes the negotiations as having hit a "fevered pitch" as the clock counts down to what is now an imminent departure by the President. JOE LOCKHART, WHITE HOUSE SPOKESMAN We wouldn't stay if we didn't think there was some chance of having a productive day."
But Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak seems to be hinting this NINTH day of negotiations has done little. Rumors had been circulating that he was threatening to leave.
The White House confirms Barak sent a letter to the President which according to Israeli radio - accuses Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat for failing to negotiate in good faith -- and blames the Palestinians for squandering an opportunity for peace.


The Palestinians responded in kind -- saying it is the Israeli delegation that won't engage in meaningful talks.

JOEL SINGER, FORMER ISRAELI NEGOTIATOR : Both sides are arguing, are negotiating, things that are at the core of their existence.
The talks will succeed or fail on one point in particular -- the status of east Jerusalem -- the holy city both sides want to claim as their capitol. Barak cannot relinquish sovereignty -- and Arafat cannot allow Israel to keep control over Arab neighborhoods -- a point he has steadfastly maintained for the last seven years. ROBERT SATLOFF,WASHINGTON CENTER There can be no end of the conflict agreement without a Palestinian foothold in Jerusalem. Early on, many had thought a partial agreement might be able to be reached -- on other issues outside of Jerusalem. There is still a chance, the White House says -- everyone expects the negotiating to go right down to the wire. Lee Cowan, CBS News, Washington.))
