ABBAS KILLS PEACE TALKS‏

JPOST: Abbas: No 'historic compromise' on Jerusalem, borders

In interview with 'Al-Quds', PA president says Palestinians won't recognize Israel as a Jewish state, accuses Netanyahu of trying to "strip" Israeli-Arabs of their rights.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas rejected Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's talk about an "historic compromise" and said there would be no compromises on core issues such as Jerusalem and borders.

Abbas also reiterated his rejection of Netanyahu's demand that the Palestinians recognize Israel as a Jewish state. "We're not talking about a Jewish state and we won't talk about one," Abbas said in an interview with the semi-official Al-Quds newspaper. "For us, there is the state of Israel and we won't recognize Israel as a Jewish state."

THIS INTRANSIGENCE MAKES ANY AND ALL TALKS WORTHLESS.

MAY I REMIND ALL OF YOU THAT THE ONLY REASON THERE HAVE BEEN NO DIRECT TALKS FOR TWO YEARS IS ABBAS'S REFUSAL TO TALK.

THEW PALI'S ARE THE OBSTACLE TO PEACE. FATAH AND HAMAS.

THERE CAN BE NO PEACE UNTIL THERE'S REGIME CHANGE IN IRAN.

THE ROAD TO PEACE GOES THRU IRAN.
