Here's Haaretz's lead headline and lead op-ed as of 8:30 this morning:

Lead Headline:

Israel postpones demolition of illegal outpost, handing settlers a major victory

Initially, the government argued that it was conducting negotiations with the residents of the outposts to evacuate them willingly, which never happened.

Lead Editorial:

Netanyahu leading the fight against Israel's peace activists

Right-wing parties blame Israel human rights organizations for aiding what they call 'campaign to delegitimize Israel', and have turned them into a scapegoat.

Irrelevant Ha'aretz News pushed to back of page 37:

PA concedes defeat in statehood bid after failing to muster votes
Measure not likely to pass the Security Council, since U.S. plans to veto statehood bid, but Palestinians hoped to muster majority needed to trigger veto and embarrass the U.S.
