US Secretary of State John Kerry has blocked a meeting between Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas, senior Palestinian and Israeli officials say.
During a meeting with four retired Israeli ambassadors in Paris last Monday, Haaretz reported, Abbas said that despite his willingness to meet with Netanyahu, "a third party who is not Israeli" had recently prevented the meeting.
Netanyahu has reportedly been sending Abbas messages for weeks about reviving the long-stalled peace process amid escalating Arab violence and Abbas' threat to suspend key clauses of the Oslo Accords during his visit to the United Nations in New York.
During communications between the two, Abbas relayed he would be interesting in attending a meeting with Netanyahu, but first wanted to consult with Kerry on the subject.
Israeli and Palestinian officials claim that Kerry asked the PA chairman to push off a meeting with Netanyahu for a few weeks until after the two met at the UN General Assembly.
Palestinian sources say Kerry blocked the meeting because he did not want it to take place without American involvement and his own personal mediation.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
So, our poodle of state is blocking progres?
First time Obama/Kerry did something to help Israel. Bibi gets nothing but bombs and rocks and threats from the murderous islamonazi Abbas. Let Abbas go to alluh in hell, Bibi. (Help him get there ASAP too )
During a meeting with four retired Israeli ambassadors in Paris last Monday, Haaretz reported, Abbas said that despite his willingness to meet with Netanyahu, "a third party who is not Israeli" had recently prevented the meeting.
And they let the US block the meetings why? I would have told Kerry and his ilk to go straight to h*ll.
As the mossad chief looks at Bibi and asks .... now ?
“And they let the US block the meetings why? “
I suspect the “blockage” is a threat to cut off the money spigot. Abbas, like practically every other middle eastern leader, is in it for the money.
Abbas was elected for a term that ended over a decade ago. The entity that elected him no longer exists. Pretending he’s an elected leader gives structure and focus to a non-existent peace “process.” The people who follow Abbas do so because he pays them to. Cut off the money and there is no Palestinian government.
“And they let the US block the meetings why?”
Money and support.
“Kerry blocked the meeting because he did not want it to take place without American involvement.”...
Two countries wanting to meet to discuss “peace” and the U.S. tells them to “halt”.......Tell me again how we got that piece of crap Kerry representing the U.S.
Kerry will not allow a meeting until 1/2 Jews
in Israel agree to suicide, or to let Kerry’s allies
murder them and their children.
Abbas was elected for a term that ended over a decade ago
LOL
:')
That’s cute, thinking that Kerry was approved (by HOW many Senators??) to represent the U.S.
