A Truce Is Offered - Weakness Admitted
Palestinian Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said Saturday that his Hamas-led government would be willing to accept a temporary Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza and east Jerusalem in exchange for a 10-year truce with Israel.Well you know this is a no sale. Who wants to help create a state that starts out at war with its neighbor except for the minor detail of a ten year truce? It didn't sell the last time it was on the table. It will not sell today. However, his bargaining position must be extremely weak, because he admits his weakness. This is a highly unusual bargaining strategy. "We are with liberating any inch of Palestine," the Palestinian Prime Minister said in a televised address,Breathtaking. Actually though, that has always been Hamas policy. Nice hearing it from the horse's mouth. Cross Posted at Power and Control posted by Simon on 01.20.07 at 02:49 PM |
