FACTBOX: Olmert and Abbas: the distance between them

(Reuters) - U.S. President George W. Bush, on a visit to Israel next week to mark its 60th anniversary, will discuss U.S.-sponsored peace talks Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is holding with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

After five months of talks, what separates the two sides?

SECURITY:

Ahead of Bush's visit, Abbas deployed hundreds of his security forces to the northern West Bank city of Jenin and surrounding villages in a show that his government can exert control after a smaller deployment late last year in Nablus.

Israel has said no peace agreement will be implemented until the Palestinians dismantle militant groups. Palestinians say Israeli restrictions and raids have hindered those efforts.

Hamas Islamists, who seized control of the Gaza Strip in June after routing Abbas's Fatah forces, oppose the talks. With U.S.-backing, Egypt has been trying to broker an unofficial ceasefire between Gaza militants and Israel.

BORDERS:

Washington sees borders as the least problematic of the final-status issues and pushed for it to be tackled first. Israeli officials have reported "significant" progress on borders, but the Palestinians dispute that.

Olmert has privately expressed willingness to give up "90-something" percent of the West Bank and 100 percent of the Gaza Strip as part of a final peace deal, Western officials say.
