« Democracy is Not Magic | Main | Rajoub Resigns » Pressure Abbas
By Micah Halpern
Tuesday January 11, 2005 I've Been Thinking: I knew that the Bush White House would invite Abu Mazzen over as soon as he was elected. Literally, the invitation was extended the very next day. The sentence structure may be awkward, but the wording was frank and the sentiment probably sincere. While speaking to reporters in the Oval Office the president put it this way: But pressure must be placed on both Bush and Abbas before an actual visit commences. Before Abbas comes we must hear him denounce the terrorists who lifted him high on their shoulders and paraded proudly through the throngs. That behavior was unacceptable - even for him and certainly for every other world leader. There should be no double standard for the new Palestinian leader. He doesn't deserve it. Neither do we. 4 June 2017 12:14 PM in Thoughts
