« Terror in Nigeria | Main | New Elections in Israel? » Abbas Provokes Again
By Micah Halpern
Monday December 1, 2014 I've Been Thinking: Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas made a provocative announcement to the Arab media yesterday. Abbas proclaimed that Hamas and Israel are conducting secret talks. Of course there have been indirect conversations between Israel and Hamas. Egypt has been the intermediary and has successfully brokered deals by relaying information between the two parties. But Israel does not speak directly to Hamas. Abbas is correct when he says that it is very difficult to get Israel and the PA to speak - even when the US is the intermediary. The main reason for the difficulty is that both parties continue to point the finger at one another and do not seem to be interested in sitting down with each another. Abbas is always blaming Israel. Instead of blaming each other, Israel and the Palestinian Authority should sit down and start talking. Read my latest book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
