'Palestinians'' seek gripe session with Kerry

This is how US Secretary of State John Kerry is spending his time. No, not trying to rally support for a US strike on Syria. Instead, Kerry is spending his time listening to 'Palestinian' gripes over the 'peace process.'

The Palestinians are busily seeking to arrange a meeting between PA
Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and US Secretary of State John Kerry, Ramallah’s
foreign minister, Riyad al-Maliki

Your tax dollars at work: 'Palestinian Authority' giving grants to released murderers

The 'Palestinians' are doing more than honoring the child murderers that Israel released to bring them to the conference table. They're also giving them 'grants' to honor them for their 'sacrifices.'

A statement issued by the government following its weekly meeting in
Ramallah said that the "grants" were being presented to the prisoners in
honor of their "sacrifices and in order to guarantee

Abu Mazen threatens to stop funding Gaza

Israel's Channel 2 reported on Saturday night (surprisingly, it has not been picked up anywhere else that I saw) that 'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen has decided to hold elections for the 'Presidency' and 'Parliament.' He is threatening that if Hamas does not participate, he will declare the Gaza Strip to be in revolt and will stop sending money there. Most of the '

The end of the 'Palestinian Authority'?

For the umpteenth time, the United Nations representative to the 'peace talks,' Robert Serry, assures us that the sky is falling. According to Serry, if the current talks do not result in a 'Palestinian state,' the 'Palestinian Authority' will collapse.

In remarks broadcast on Israel Radio, Robert Serry said that the urgency
of the hour gives him hope that both sides will approach this

Abu Bluff seethes: No 'progress' in 'talks'

'Moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen whined to a delegation of Meretz MK's on Thursday that no 'progress' is being made in the 'talks.' Israel isn't willing to commit suicide quickly enough.

MK Zehava Gal-On that the Palestinian people are ready for peace but
that there cannot be an interim

'Palestinians' seethe, Israelis satisfied over Indyk's absence

The 'Palestinians' are seething at US facilitator Martin Indyk's exclusion from the 'peace talks' that are taking place in Israel, but the Israelis, who were never happy with Indyk's role, are quite pleased with his absence.

An Israeli source noted that the Palestinians are claiming that Indyk
should be actively involved in talks and should be sitting at the
negotiating table. Palestinian

Why the 'peace talks' are being held in secret

Silly me. I thought that the reason that the 'peace talks' were being held in secretive locations without a media presence and without press briefings was so that we wouldn't realize that Netanyahu, Livni and Netanyahu's attorney, Yitzchak Molcho, were giving the country away until it was a fait accomplis. I was wrong.

Khaled Abu Toameh reports that the real reason that the talks are being

'Palestinians' threaten to walk out of 'peace talks' over 'settlement' freeze

And you thought 'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen agreed that Israel would release murderers and wouldn't also agree to a 'settlement' freeze. Well, he did. But now he'd like to pocket the murderers and get the freeze anyway.

The PLO leadership on Sunday launched a scathing attack on Israel and
threatened to go to international agencies to punish it for its “war

'Palestinians' accuse US of 'deception and misinformation' on talks

Nothing, but nothing, is good enough for the 'Palestinians.' After the United States exerted enormous pressure on Israel, which is supposed to be an American ally, the 'Palestinians' are now accusing the United States of 'deception and misinformation about the 'peace talks.'

[London based Al-Hayat] quoted Abbas as telling the officials: “I have told the US
Administration 10 times, and I’m

Guidelines for 'peace talks' leaked?

Elder posts a list of leaked 'guidelines' for the 'peace talks' that came from something called 'Palestine Today' put out by Islamic Jihad. Elder speculates that 'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen may have sent them to Moscow for approval and they may have been leaked that way. Color me skeptical. Here are some of the more outlandish ones.

Abu Mazen's welcome home

On Tuesday night, Abu Mazen stayed up all night partying with murderers.

How Peres duped Israel again

Take this with a grain of salt, because it is the Sunday Times of London, but Shimon Peres, who negotiated the Oslo Accords behind Yitzchak Rabin's back, played a major role in the current 'negotiations' getting started, apparently behind Binyamin Netanyahu's back. This was behind a paywall, but I got it by email.

SECRET talks in the Jordanian capital, Amman, earlier this year between Shimon

in the West Bank and east Jerusalem "were to some degree expected," and
urged

The names of the 26 'Palestinian' terrorists to be released before Wednesday's 'negotiations' between 'justice minister' Tzipi Livni and 'Palestinian' chief negotiator bottle washer Saeb Erekat were published during the night. What's most striking about the list is that every single person on it was convicted of either murder, attempted murder or being an accessory to murder. The public now has

Kerry to US 'Jewish leaders': 'I know what's good for Israel better than its elected leaders'

US Secretary of State John Kerry has told a group of American 'Jewish leaders' that he knows what's good for Israel better than that country's elected leadership.

An optimistic-sounding Kerry asked the Jewish
leaders for their help in supporting the newly restarted talks, The
Times of Israel learned, saying that he feared for Israel’s future if a

Abu Mazen about to back out of 'peace talks'?

On Tuesday, 'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen suddenly canceled a meeting with his Fatah faction that was to plan for the 'second round' of 'talks' with Israel on August 14, and flew off to Saudi Arabia to meet with King Abdullah bin Abdel
Aziz.
