Abu Bluff spits on Obama
They're not smiling and laughing together anymore, but you would have to have been blind not to see this one coming: 'Moderate' 'Palestinian' President "For now he is doing nothing, but he has invited us to revive the peace process. I hope that in the future he can play a more important role," Abbas said in an interview published Tuesday by the Argentine daily Clarin.And of course, the 'Palestinian people' aren't making 'any more' concessions:
...
Abbas expressed the hope that "the United States [will] put pressure on the Israelis to abide by international law, so that the roadmap can be implemented."
"We accepted to have only 22 per cent of Palestine, and that is the biggest concession. And we also accepted that Israel had 78 per cent. So, what kind of concessions are they expecting from us?" he said.JPost reports that Abu Mazen actually believes that Israelis want peace:
He opined that the current government, with Binyamin Netanyahu as prime minister and Avigdor Lieberman as foreign minister, "is not seeking peace," though he said that 73 percent of Israelis were in favor of peace.Well, yes, but not a peace that is likely to result in another existential war a year or two down the road.
How low can Obama go? My guess is that we have not seen the limit. But when the powerless Abu Mazen feels it's okay to spit on you, you're pretty low already.
What could go wrong?

This would be a really good article to analyse with regards to the "percentages" discussed.
The Palestinians act like they're doing Israel a favor by accepting a two state solution. But they refuse negotiate with Israel and to accept it as the Jewish State. So their supposed acceptance of co-existence is just a farce as is their complaining Israel isn't bending over backwards to give still more land away to them without their having to even compromise to get it.
Now that's chutzpah.
