It's come to this

It's come to this: Abu Bluff has threatened to quit the 'direct talks,' and Bibi is begging him to stay. Here's the first article:
Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas declared during a visit to Libya that if he is pressured on key issues at the direct talks, such as borders and refugees, he will not accept it and "will take his bags and leave," Palestinian newspaper Al Quds reported on Monday.

"I will not be pressured into signing anything or taking even one concession with relation to all the aggressive attitudes around me," Abbas reportedly told the east Jerusalem newspaper.
And Bibi's response: "Please, please. We won't pressure you on anything.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu called on his partner in peace negotiations Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas not to give up on a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict on Monday. Netanyahu's comments came at a meeting he held with Democratic members of the US congress at his office in Jerusalem.

The prime minister added that the two sides agreed on many subjects during preliminary talks and that the only way to arrive at an agreement on those subjects is through a year-long round of direct, consecutive and uninterrupted negotiations.
What could go wrong?

Why beg Abu Bluff to stay in talks he has no real interest? Its a degrading stand for a Prime Minister Of Israel to take. If peace is not important to the Palestinians, Israel has no business forcing it upon them.

Its time for Israel's government to draw the appropriate conclusions and to move on.
