You have to understand Rocco, they haven't exhibited leadership because they didn't want to. Yasser Arafat and now Hamas are getting to steal hundreds of millions into their own personal Swiss bank accounts. If they stop this quest to destroy the Jewish state, the money gets dried up, and they actually have to do what all leaders have to do. In other words, the Palestinian people are victims of outside influence and corrupt leaders.
This is so true. The worst punishment Israel could do to the Palestinians is let them stay where they are & grant them self determination without having Israel to suck off for their survival anymore.
There will never be any peace with with Israel, as long as the Palestinians continue to have xorrupt terrorists as leaders, and there is outside money coming in with strings attached - to destroy the state of Israel.
Abbas is in Sudan now trying to get African nations to restrain any movements by Israel in Africa.Israel needs to stop pussyfooting with these criminals.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas arrived in Sudan on Tuesday for a three-day visit with Sudanese President Omar al-Bashir, who has been wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of genocide since 2010. PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki
announced Wednesday that the PA and the government of Sudan are working together to combat Israel’s diplomatic outreach to Africa. “President Mahmoud Abbas and his Sudanese counterpart Omar al-Bashir discussed developing a strategy for the African continent and coordinating to restrain Israeli attempts to make a breakthrough in Africa,” al-Maliki said.
Abbas spoke before the African Union on Sunday in Kigali, Rwanda and
urged the body to back France’s plan to host an international conference on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Dore Gold, the director-general of Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said in an
interviewThursday with The Times of Israel, “The French initiative unfortunately is an alternative to direct negotiations. I’ve seen French statements on that, and it’s undermining the whole peace process that was begun in Madrid.” The Israeli government insists upon bilateral negotiations with the Palestinians as the only way to achieve peace.
Abbas’ visit to the African continent comes two weeks after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to four African countries, and just as the Republic of Guinea, a Muslim-majority African nation,
restored diplomatic ties with Israel after a 49-year break. Netanyahu has made it a priority to strengthen Israel’s commercial, diplomatic, and security relations with African countries. Faced with rising
security threats from Islamic extremists, African nations like Uganda, Kenya, and Ethiopia have been seeking Israeli knowledge and assistance in combating radical Islamic terrorism. Netanyahu stated that Israel is the “
best partner that the countries of Africa could have” due to its experience in fighting terrorism, conserving water, and irrigating dry lands. Israel has a long history of
sharing its expertisewith African countries. Jerusalem hopes that increased ties with African nations will lead to a
shift in their voting trends at the UN and other global fora, thus improving Israel’s diplomatic standing and reversing what Netanyahu called “the automatic majority against Israel.”
