Members of The Al-Aqsa brigade, an armed group linked to [Yasser Arafat]'s Fatah movement, march through the streets of Borage refugee camp outside Gaza City during an anti " Geneva Accord " demonstration December 5, 2003. [Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon faced Friday a rift with Washington over an unofficial peace plan he opposes and an opinion poll showing his popularity had dipped to its lowest point since he took office. US President Bush threw his weight behind a meeting Secretary of State Colin Powell was to hold Friday with the co-authors of a symbolic peace plan known as the Geneva Accord. Bush said, "I think it's productive," of the proposal by leading Israeli dove Yossi Beilin and former Palestinian minister Yasser Abed Rabbo. Under the Geneva deal, Israel would give up West Bank and Gaza territories occupied in the 1967 Middle East war to Palestinians to set up a state, also the end goal of a U.S.-backed "road map" that Bush reaffirmed in his remarks. ]
