This document appears to be a page from a memoir or book manuscript by Ehud Barak (indicated by the header), contained within a House Oversight file. The text details a private conversation between Barak and President Bill Clinton in Lisbon during the spring (likely 2000), discussing the deteriorating security situation with the Palestinians and Yasser Arafat's intentions. Barak presses Clinton for a new summit despite Clinton's skepticism and the previous diplomatic failure with Syrian President Assad in Geneva.
