He reminds me of that Iraqi communications person years ago who kept insisting that at Iraq was destroying the coalition forces as bonds were exploding all around him in Baghdad.
What pathetic excuses for walking away from a deal that most rational people see as fair. Olmert made an offer. Normally what happens is the other side makes a counterproposal. Instead Abbas walked away, sinking the best chance there has been since 1948 for a Two State peace. There was nothing preventing Abbas from creating his own map or pushing his own conditions but he refused showing quite clearly he had no interest in accepting a Two State peace....
It is a ridiculous proposition. An unprofessional and a moronic one. So you are saying that he got ambushed with a map, and was asked to approve something immediately, without actually taking it back to his people to review it extensively and come back with questions to avoid any loopholes? To resolve a 75 year old conflict of immense magnitude? Hence it was not a sincere offer after all. It was an offer provided knowing full well, that it will be rejected, so it can be used as media fodder, that Israel somehow was magnanimous enough to offer something like that. If they were serious, why the conditions? Offer it seriously and answer your Palestinian counterparts questions and do it earnestly. But that is not the Zionist way, I guess. Also, no. He stated he rejected it because he was not allowed to study the map. So you are lying.

Kind of hard when terror groups like Hamas and PIJ keep attacking Jewish civilians because they think violence will get rid of the Jewish presence.Its really kept Israel peaceful, hasn't it?

There's more here but you reject all the criticisms of Hamas in it.I'm sure there's more than that on this thread alone.
No, rich.In your opinion anybody who's against Hamas is worse than Hamas...."Hamas isn't the problem" that's your stance so who else is surprise? Palestinians suffer under Hamas...and you support Hamas...you are part of the problem...
Not a single criticism by any Israeli supporter.Hell bent on becoming a Pariah state. What a self destructive impulse.
You know mandrill, that's like taking your post and saying 'you really mean all Palestinians need to die' and especially the kids that might grow up to be Hamas.
You post from Mossad Commentary.
This website is pretty much devoted to supporting Hamas. Doesn't seem very neutral to me, Klatty.
