Israel "not interested" in peace process

Mon, 19 Mar 2007 10:20:44

Palestinian Deputy Prime Minister Azzam Al Ahmed has said Israel is not interested in reviving the peace process or implementing its obligations.


Referring to the Israeli government's decision to boycott the new Palestinian government, Al Ahmed said, "This was not unexpected as the Israelis did not approve of the Mecca deal before the formation of the unity government. The Israelis have consistently expressed a negative attitude," Palestine News Network reported.

He said it is a continuation of the regime's hawkish policy that began years ago with the siege imposed on the late Authority Chief Yasir Arafat using the same pretext that there is “no Palestinian partner.”

Meanwhile, Palestine's deputy PM described the first meeting of the eleventh government as “positive and responsible.”

The meeting was led by Authority Chief Mahmoud Abbas from the presidential offices via video conference between Ramallah and Gaza City on Sunday.

In the session, Abbas stressed the need for the new government to meet the needs of the entire Palestinian population, not one party over another.

According to Israel there were no Palestinians living in Palestine when Israel was established, which is strange because even when Joshua entered the Promised Land he had to concur it from its residents at the time.

There are no Palestinians to negotiate with, either because they are not there, or because they are raving mad suicide bombers, who nobody could possibly deal with.

This is the old Israeli story, and why should they change it as it has served it well for so long. Israel has been working hard to create "sectarian strife" in Palestine, if necessary by sending in IDF soldiers to commit atrocities dressed up like Arabs. When the Palestinians decide that they will not be destroyed by this wicket Israeli scheme and form a government of both its political forces, this is of course a tremendous setback for Israel.

Norway was courageous enough to recognize the new government with the intention to resume full relations with Palestine. That resulted in an immediate Israeli cancellation of all appointments with the Norwegian Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, along with accusations that Norway endangers the peace!

We just have to realize that we are dealing with war mongering Zionist lunatics, and we shall not be intimidated by their calling us "Anti-Semites". There is a lot more Semitic blood in the Palestine population than in the Israeli!
