Mahmoud Abbas calls on US to 'impose' a solution to Middle-East conflist By Robin Henr
Palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas today called on the US to “impose” a solution to the Middle-East conflict.Abbas made a direct plea to President Barack Obama to ensure Palestinians were given an independent state.
He also rejected the idea of a state with “temporary borders”, reportedly being offered Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu...
****This way, Abbas doesn't even have to "promise" anything ( not that his promises would mean anything. The most basic of the Oslo agreements have long been violated by Arafat and his progeny.) So, the only guarantor for trust in any imposed solution would be the U.S. and, given that Obama/Hillary have reneged on written promises to Israel already, why should any Israeli trust even the U.S.?****Obama's credibility exists only in the eyes of those (e.g. Hillary, Brzezinski, Samantha Powers, Mitchell et al) whose credibility is also absent.Obama's animus combined with his naivete can well produce nuclear war.****
****Does Bill Clinton know any better? Under him Rahm and the Ragin' Cajun undermined Netanyahu the last time he was PM. Barak, under Clinton's prodding, offered to give away the store; saved only by Arafat's total intransigence.****
Bill Clinton Encourages Obama on Mideast Peace Effort
(Wall Street Journal) Laura Meckler - Former President Bill Clinton said he would "strongly support" an effort by President Barack Obama to issue his own Middle East peace plan, something now under discussion at the White House. "We need to do something to deprive both sides of any excuse not to engage in serious negotiations," Mr. Clinton said Sunday on ABC's "This Week." "If this is the tactic he decides to adopt, I will strongly support it." Mr. Clinton said he has talked the issue over with Mr. Obama and White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, as well as with his wife, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
