Abbas here lied twice. First, it is a lie that he is prepared to return to the negotiating table with Israel. In the past few years, Abbas has repeatedly rejected Israeli offers to resume the stalled peace negotiations.

Abbas's chief negotiator, Saeb Erekat, claimed this week that his boss was ready to resume the peace talks with Israel in Moscow....... This means that Abbas has not abandoned his preconditions for resuming the peace talks with Israel. The timing of Erekat's announcement in Moscow is clearly linked to the Paris peace conference. It is part of the Palestinian strategy to depict Israel as the party opposed to the resumption of the peace talks.

Abbas has in the past reluctantly condemned some of the terror attacks against Israel... however,...statements were made under duress, after being pressured by the US or EU.... nothing but political pablum, a sop to the West.

The Palestinian terrorist who rammed his truck into a group of young Israeli soldiers last week was doing exactly what his president urged Palestinians to do.

The Germans and French should not believe Abbas when he says that he condemns truck terror attacks in their countries..... Palestinians celebrating carnage in Jerusalem ... the overall Palestinian strategy – like the jihad strategy -... terror as one their main pillars.

What members of the international community do not seem to understand is that... [t]he terrorist who rammed his truck into a German Christmas market .... [or] who mowed down French people celebrating Bastille day ... are part of just one big global jihad against all "infidels" – including them.

The Palestinian Authority and its leader, Mahmoud Abbas, still believe that they can fool all of the people all of the time.-snip-

The international community needs to understand is that there is no "good terrorism" (against Jews) versus "bad terrorism (against the rest of the non-islamic world). It's all one big global jihad movement to conquer infidels and set up a universal one-world caliphate.

As long as Muslim hijra to Europe continues, Euro political elites will pander for their votes by blaming Israel for everything.

Mohammedanism endorses lying.

Judaism denounces lying; Christianity denounces lying.

I wonder who lies more.
