Abbas Is Not a Peace Partner
(Jerusalem Post) Dore Gold interviewed by Gil Hoffman - PA President Mahmoud Abbas has disqualified himself as a serious peace partner unless he pulls back and changes the tone and content of his approach, former Foreign Ministry Director-General Dore Gold told the Jerusalem Post on Monday. Israel has complained for years about Palestinian incitement and Abbas' speech on Sunday revealed that the source for the incitement has been Abbas himself. "It's critical for Abbas' strategy to characterize Israel as an apartheid state, to put Israeli history in the context of colonialism and to advance boycotting, divesting, sanctions and other lawfare. These become the messages he wants to leave for Palestinian youth even after he goes, and this is extremely destructive."
