Palestinian Authority (PA) Minister of Religious Affairs Mahmoud Al-Habbash, in a sermon attended by PA President Mahmoud Abbas on the day that renewed peace negotiations with Israel were announced, compared PA peace agreements to a 10-year truce that was broken by the Prophet Muhammad after only two years.
The PA minister, according to a July 19 Palestinian Authority TV broadcast cited by Palestinian Media Watch, compared the Palestinian leadership’s approach to peace agreements such as the 1993 Oslo Accords to the “Treaty of Hudaybiyyah” between Muhammad and the Quraish Tribe of Mecca. Just like the Palestinian leadership encountered “much criticism and much opposition by some [Palestinians]” over the Oslo Accords, Muhammad was initially met with “anger and fury” from his followers for the Treaty of Hudaybiyyah, Al-Habbash said. Questioned at the time why he didn’t decide to conquer Mecca, Muhammad assured his followers the 10-year truce would turn out to be a “victory.”
“In less than two years, the Prophet returned and, based on this treaty, he conquered Mecca,” Al-Habbash said. “This is the example, this is the model [for contemporary agreements with Israel].”

Might take 3 1/2 years this time.
Is anyone surprised by this? Any “peace” deal with the PA is worthless from the gitgo. The vast majority of Israelis know this. The delusional Israeli Left is selling unicorns and fairy dust.
Along with the pressure and interference from the UN and American Left, and the disruption of stability of countries surrounding Israel, and the economic issues in Israel, Israel may buy into it. Hope not in one sense, hope so from a Biblical prophecy sense.
exactly what I was thinking... time to fill the lamps and trim the wicks...
Israel should have taken out the mosque with abbas inside.
Whether believer or unbeliever, it will affect us all.
I forgot to mention the pressure the EU, business interests influencing the situation (Natural gas discoveries, The Quartet/Tony Blair efforts, and ecumenism, etc.)
I'm watching with you and others on FR.
We’re going to find out, sooner or later, if Abdul will pray, to a smoking crater.
Arafat said the same things about the Oslo Accords during a speech given in South Africa in Arabic soon after the accords were agree to. The Treaty of Hudaybiyyah tactic comes in handy time-after-time.
Amazing honesty for an Arab.
Truly amazing!
“In less than two years, the Prophet returned and, based on this treaty, he conquered Mecca,” Al-Habbash said. “This is the example, this is the model [for contemporary agreements with Israel].”
Translation: “This is the example, this is the model [for TEMPORARY agreements OF CONVENIENCE with Israel].”
Abdul is destined to a smoking pit one way or another.
That is because he was speaking to Muslims. It is the only time they will stumble through a bit of truth.
Yeah, no kiddin’. Thanks haffast.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.
