Abbas: We Choose Peace, But Reserve Right to Resistance
[Ha'aretz] Avi Issacharoff and Jack Khoury - Western-backed Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas said Tuesday his people must not "mar their legitimate struggle with terror" and that while his government seeks peace with Israel, it reserves the right to resort to "resistance." Abbas' comment was echoed by Jibril Rajoub, a senior Fatah official who served as a key security advisor to Arafat. Rajoub said Fatah has not relinquished the option of armed struggle against Israel.
