Palestinian Unity
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.
“Reconciliation” is ostensibly the order of the day in the non-state the United Nations now calls Palestine. The leaders of the Fatah and Hamas factions will be meeting in Cairo shortly to try to forge a unity government.
One obvious basis for unifying is the fact that the two long-time enemies share a common determination to destroy the Jewish State. Fatah’s Mahmud Abbas would do so after negotiating a phony peace accord with Israel. Khaled Mashaal of Hamas insists on skipping that step – a stance that clearly enjoys growing support among Palestinians.
Either way, Israel can’t be expected to negotiate a real and enduring peace with the Palestinians. It is unreasonable to ask Israelis literally to bet their lives and country on that proposition – and reckless to insist that they do so.
