U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says he held "very constructive talks" with Israeli and Palestinian leaders during three days of high-level Mideast diplomacy. He says everyone is committed to continuing a process that could "create the conditions for peace" so direct Israeli-Palestinian talks can resume. Kerry spoke after meeting Tuesday for private talks with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, according to a report of the Associated Press. Peace talks between the Israelis and Palestinians been largely frozen for 41⁄2 years.
