Palestine is a land of betrayal. Yasser Arafat was aided and abetted by the CIA for a long time. He would visit a site and move out quickly saying he sniffed danger and the moment he would leave the place would be bombed. In the end, he was no more useful and GWB let Ariel Sharon take care of him. Mahmoud Abbas, the current president has a history too. Mossad guys were out in Tunisia to kill Abu Jihad, a PLO operative, in Tunisia; they wanted to kill Mahmoud Abbas aka Abu Mazen next door as well, thus killing two birds with one stone but he was spared! Mahmoud Abbas wrote a 600-page book on Oslo Accord to which he was a co-signatory with Yitzhak Rabin, without once mentioning the word ‘occupation.’ Hamas was made in Israel in the ‘80s as an alternative to PLO.
When Israel wanted to give Palestinians a bad name, Hamas would bomb Tel Aviv. Then it came into its own. Still, when a Brit reporter based in Beirut was going to Tel Aviv, a Hamas guy tells him ‘You’d better call Shimon Peres; here is his phone number.’ Hamas won the last elections but they picked Mahmoud Abbas, Israel’s own man. There are two presidents in Palestine, Mahmoud Abbas and Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas. Abbas calls the latest Unite Arab Emirates to move a stab in the back of Palestinians. He himself is a dagger no less!
