But serious differences remain over the proposed government's platform, including wording on recognizing Israel. Hamas' charter calls for the destruction of the Jewish state, and its leaders have said repeatedly that the group would not recognize Israel. Hamas officials Thursday offered praise for a statement by the peace intermediaries known as the quartet -- the United States, European Union, United Nations and Russia -- that welcomed efforts to form a unity government. The statement expressed hope that the platform of the new coalition would "reflect" three conditions supported by the mediators: recognizing Israel, renouncing violence and abiding by interim peace deals. Sami abu Zuhri, a Hamas spokesman, called the statement a positive sign but said it did not go far enough. "The quartet position must include the immediate stop for the economic and political embargo and to put pressure on the Israeli occupation to stop all the aspects of aggression against the Palestinian people," Abu Zuhri said. The quartet's statement was interpreted by some observers as a softening of the mediators' demands.

The panel left open the possibility of a further reduction. The three-member panel unanimously ruled Gatlin committed a doping offense when he tested positive for excessive testosterone in April 2006, but the sprinter's first doping offense in 2001 troubled the group. The 2001 findings came under different standards than those in effect now because the World Anti-Doping Code had yet to be established. Gatlin has six months to appeal. In 2006, Gatlin tested positive for a banned substance for the second time and, under anti-doping rules, was supposed to receive a lifetime suspension. But because of the special circumstances behind his first positive test -- he was taking medicine to treat attention-deficit disorder -- he reached an agreement with USADA that called for a maximum eight-year ban. Gatlin's agreement with USADA called for him not to argue that the second positive test was faulty, but also gave him the right to seek a further reduction through arbitration. Bock said USADA argued Gatlin didn't provide the agency with "real material assistance" in its investigation.
