The Palestinian Authority’s president, Mahmoud Abbas, wants to “pressure” the American government to do his bidding before Biden visits the Middle East on a trip scheduled for this July.

Plans to Increase Pressure on U.S. ahead of Biden’s Visit.” This headline in the Daily Alert was illustrative of why Palestinian delusions are mainly responsible for their plight. The article associated with the headline said the Palestinians want to “turn the screws on the White House in order...

Mahmoud Abbas, also known as Abu Mazen, is now 85-years old; he is frail and largely dysfunctional, as is his Ramallah based Palestinian Authority (PA), which he has presided over since 2005. Abbas
has also been chairman of the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) since 2004. A third leadership position held by Abbas is that of the chairman of the Fatah (party and terror group at times). A majority of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza want Abbas to resign. According to the Palestinian Center for Policy Survey Research, 64% of Palestinians are concerned that Abbas’ departure from politics would...

“History Lesson” From Mahmoud Abbas: You’ll Never Guess Who Backed The Creation Of Israel

As Philip Klein points out, it’s a good thing that this “history lesson†comes from the Left’s favorite Palestinian moderate. Lord
knows how this would have unfolded with a less rational personage than Mahmoud “Abu Mazen†Abbas. The Palestinian leader opened the first Palestinian National Council in 22 years yesterday, hoping to firm up his credibility enough to establish his preferred line of succession as well as unite Palestinians under his leadership. And what better way to accomplish this than some unadulterated and absolutely bat-s*** crazy anti-Semitic conspiracy theories? In a long and rambling at speech in Ramallah at...

Former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denounced “acts of terror and terrorism” on Sunday, seemingly in response to the assassination attempt on former U.S. President Donald Trump in Pennsylvania on Saturday evening, although Ahmadinejad did not refer to Trump by name in his message. “Acts

Humanity is suffering such severe pains all over the world,” Ahmadinejad said on Twitter, where he has over 144,000 followers, although his account has been largely inactive for about two years.

Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas just told the Turkish parliament that "America is the plague, and the plague is America." Will the United States tolerate such attacks? What
do Palestinian leaders say when they are not speaking in English? For decades, Yasser Arafat spoke of peace in English—but only in English. In Arabic, not a word about peace and compromise. In Arabic, not a word about peace and compromise. (Here, from 1997, is an example of the many articles about this phenomenon.) But Arafat has been dead since 2004, and Mahmoud Abbas has been the leader of the PLO, Fatah Party,...

The President of the PA, Mahmoud Abbas, addressed the United Nations Security Council yesterday. Of
note was the fact that during the PA president’s speech, he told the audience that his people were part of a culture of coexistence, that he wished for his people to far from terrorism and extremism and finally that the United States had contradicted itself and was not capable of solving the “regional conflict”. In addition to what Abbas said, as usual, he conveniently forgot to mention that the PA pays terrorists and their families for murdering Israelis. He also conveniently forgot to mention that...

Demonstrating a new level of tension with Israel, President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority declared Wednesday that it was no longer bound by the Oslo Peace Accords and subsequent agreements that formed the basis for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In

He asserted that there was no reason that the Palestinians should remain faithful to them as long...

Speaking at the European Parliament on June 23, PA President Mahmoud Abbas alleged that only a week before, some Israeli rabbis had demanded "that their government poison the water in order to kill the Palestinians," saying that this was incitement to mass murder. The
address aired on the Palestinian Authority's official TV channel. Two days later, his office issued a retraction, which, according to The New York Times, read in part: "After it has become evident that the alleged statements by a rabbi on poisoning Palestinian wells, which were reported by various media outlets, are baseless, President Mahmoud Abbas has...

the BBC and the Associated Press are at the root of it, I’m leaning towards the former. A BBC reporter in the room claimed that Pope Francis said “you are an angel of peace†while presenting a gift (which is Vatican tradition) to Abbas.The Vatican reporter for the Italian newspaper La Stampa has it differently: As is tradition with heads of State or...

Peace and reconciliation between Israel and the Palestinians would require first and foremost a Palestinian leadership that acknowledges the historical connections between the Jewish people and the Land of Israel. Without acknowledging this basic historical fact, which the Bible established, and the 1920 San Remo International Conference confirmed, there is no basis
for negotiating a true peace.It is not just the Islamist terrorist group Hamas that rejects Israel’s right to exist and seeks to destroy it with words and actions — it is the leader of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas. In his speech to the Fatah Revolutionary Council last...
