'Palestinian Authority' makes first gesture of 'direct talks'

And you thought that it was only Israel that made 'gestures' in connection with the 'direct talks' and the 'peace process.' The 'Palestinian Authority' has made a gesture in connection with the peace process. Unfortunately, that gesture is somewhere worse than sticking out a middle finger. The 'Palestinian Authority' has honored Um Yousuf Abu Hamid (pictured) with its Mother of the Year award (okay, I made up that title - they call it the Shield of Resoluteness and Giving) for having four sons in Israeli prisons at the same time for murdering Israelis.

"The Palestinian mother is a central partner in the struggle...
It is she who gave birth to the fighters, and she deserves
that we bow to her in salute and in honor."
Those were the words of the Palestinian Authority's Minister for Prisoners' Affairs, Issa Karake, when he honored a Palestinian woman by awarding her "the Shield of Resoluteness and Giving."

She received this honor because she is the mother of four sons who are serving a total of 18 life sentences in Israeli prisons. They all killed Israeli civilians in terror attacks.

The Minister also "praised the Abu Hamid family as a model of willpower and of the struggle for the independence of Palestine" when he visited the family with a ministry delegation, human rights organizations and released prisoners, the official PA daily newspaper reported.

The four sons are serving life sentences for the following crimes:
Nasser Abu Hamid - 7 life sentences + 50 years - commander in Fatah's military wing the Al-Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades in Ramallah. Convicted of killing seven Israeli civilians and 12 attempted murders.

Nasr Abu Hamid - 5 life sentences - Member of terror faction of Fatah, Tanzim, and convicted of involvement in two terror attacks and arms dealing.

Sharif Abu Hamid- 4 life sentences - a member in one of the brothers' units carrying out terror attacks against civilians and soldiers. Accompanied a suicide bomber to his attack in March 2002.

Muhammad Abu Hamid - 2 life sentences + 30 years - involvement in terror attacks.
Minister Karake also chose this week to visit the home of the suicide terrorist Ayyat Al-Akhras who in 2002 entered a Jerusalem supermarket and detonated a bomb murdering two Israelis and killing herself. The minister's visit took place on the occasion of the Palestinian "National Day for Returning the Bodies of Palestinian and Arab Shahids and MIA's."
But if only Israel returns to the 1949 armistice Auschwitz lines so that the 'Palestinians' can set up their own little state reichlet, they'll just name streets and office buildings after these people and stop rubbing our faces in it with these annual awards.

What could go wrong?

Hamas murders and attacks Jews and hands out candy for them.

The "moderate" PA just rewards the mothers of unrepentant terrorists for their murders and assaults upon Jews.

Can any one care to explain to me the difference between the Palestinian factions in their views towards Jews? Since as I can see, its really a distinction without a difference.

We're not going to see peace within a year or within our lifetime.

And if the Israelis keep this a secret, don't mention it during the "negotiations," whose fault is it? It's bad enough your mortal enemies celebrate your suffering, but it is made all the worse by silence.

Why Netanyahu doesn't make these kinds of provocations front and center in the talks, I have no idea. If I were there, I would be raising this continually with the PA and with Obama. I would ask him, how are these the actions of a "peace partner," and I would do that in public.
