This is how US Secretary of State John Kerry is spending his time. No, not trying to rally support for a US strike on Syria. Instead, Kerry is spending his time
listening to 'Palestinian' gripes over the 'peace process.'
The Palestinians are busily seeking to arrange a meeting between PA
Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and US Secretary of State John Kerry, Ramallah’s
foreign minister, Riyad al-Maliki, told Palestinian media on Tuesday.
According
to al-Maliki, the Palestinians are intent on utilizing the Abbas-Kerry
meeting, which is due to take place in a few days somewhere in Europe,
to communicate their reservations regarding the peace negotiations with
Israel.
The Palestinians are unhappy over what they say are Israel’s repeated
attempts to dictate the talks’ agenda, Israel Radio reported. Abbas and
his aides are also displeased with what they perceive as US mediator
Martin Indyk’s insufficient participation in the negotiations thus far.
The
independent Palestinian news agency Ma’an is reporting that US
President Barack Obama is working hard to persuade Abbas to meet with
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu sometime this month, though this
information has not been confirmed by another source.
I would call that an Israel obsession.
