PA president seeks urgent consultations with Arab leaders over address; Hamas spokesmen accuses Obama of "deception," favoritism to Israel.
Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas on Thursday called an emergency meeting of the PA leadership to discuss US President Barack Obama’s speech on peace in the Middle East, a PA official in Ramallah said.
Abbas has also decided to hold urgent consultations with a number of Arab leaders on the speech, the official said.
PLO Executive Committee member Saeb Erekat said that Abbas remained committed to fulfilling all Palestinian obligations in accordance with international agreements, especially the road map plan and the 2002 Arab peace initiative.
Erekat said that the PA was hoping that the Israeli government would fulfill its obligations “to give the peace process the chance it deserves.”
Erekat said that Abbas appreciated Obama’s efforts to resume the peace talks between the Palestinians and Israel so as to reach a final solution on the core issues according to an agreed timetable.
“President Abbas affirms his appreciation for President Obama’s declaration regarding people’s right to self-determination, freedom and dignity, as well as ensuring freedom of worship,” Erekat added. “The Palestinians need more than any other people such issues to get rid of occupation.”
Hamas, on the other hand, accused Obama of “deception” and bias in favor of Israel.
Hamas spokesman Ismail Radwan told Agence France Press that his movement does not believe in US policies because they are biased in favor of Israel and deny Palestinian rights.

Erekat: Yes...but I still support Ron Paul in 2012!
May God help us all.
Yep! Middle of the roaders! That is where the yellow stripe is.
Start a war between the PA and Israel! Way to go, Barry!
Exactly.
Hamas spokesmen accuses Obama of "deception," favoritism to Israel.

The entire multipart action is merely posturing. Nothing concrete to move the status quo will result.

Urkel the Great has done a magnificent job of uniting the Middle East. Jews, Christians and Moslems now are united in the knowledge that he is a clueless dumbass.
This guy can’t do anything right and every action makes the election of a Republican that much more certain.

..................
Can't blame Abbas, he needs money, and needs to triangulate.
Not only do I agree with that, it is my prediction that this will be the cause of WWIII.
Not a small war like Iraq or Afghanistan, but WWIII with every Muslim on one side and the US, France, England, Germany, etc., on the other.
Russia and China?
Probably feeding arms under the table to the Arabs.
Think about it. Every Arab country, every Muslim country at war with Israel.
Israel in danger of being overwhelmed goes to its nuclear weapons. That brings others into the war....and it escalates from there.
This is not good.
Agreed. Last weekend’s protests are going to look like a teddy bear’s picnic compared to what the arabs will do to Israel this week. Obama just threw the world into another shooting war involving every muslim nation and Israel.
I know they wont as a pre-emptive strike .. but if I was Bibi id be itching to turn Syria, Iraq and the likes into glass.
