Abu Mazen speaks out of both sides of his mouth

In an earlier post, I discussed  'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen's interview with Channel 2, in which he supposedly 'gave up' the 'Palestinians' 'right of return.'

In this clip, you will see part of that interview followed by what he said the next day on Egyptian television. In Arafat's heyday, in the early and mid-90's this sort of double dealing would have lead to an uproar (following which the government would ignore the subsequent remarks and delude itself that all is well), but today, Israelis are so used to this kind of double talk that many are still discussing Abu Mazen's Channel 2 remarks as if they mean something.

Let's go to the videotape.
