“He said the most effective way forward would be to resume negotiations.”

OK. Now let’s negotiate.

Abbas: Gimme lots a land, lotsa money, and let seven million “refugees” return to your land, where they never have been, and help me kick all the Jooos! out of my country.

Bibi: If I do all this, will you recognize Israel as a Jewish state?

Abbas: No.

Bibi: Will you agree to call an end to hostilities?

Abbas: No.

Bibi: Will you stop rioting every time someone mentions Jews praying on the Temple Mount?

Abbas: No.

Bibi: What will you do?

Abbas: Give you my next list of demands.

Bibi: @#$@#$@#$@#$@#R$@#$$@#$@#@##@@$#@#@

Abbas: See how intransigent and stubborn he is.
