This is one reason why the”peace” negotiations failed. Netanyahu was quite right when he said: “Hamas has fired more than 10,000 missiles and rockets at Israeli territory and has not halted terrorist actions against Israel even for a minute.” But as far as a jihad operative like Erekat is concerned, the only terrorists in the picture are Israel and the United States. The murderers that CAIR-linked Hamas trains and celebrates are warriors of jihad. “Chief Palestinian Negotiator Claims Hamas Not A Terrorist Organization,” Matzav.com, April 25, 2014:
Saeb Erekat, the Palestinian Authority’s (PA) chief negotiator in its now-defunct peace talks with Israel, said he believes Hamas is not a terrorist organization.
In an Arabic-language interview with Sky News Arabic, Erekat said Hamas “is not and will never be a terrorist organization to us.”
The Israeli government called off negotiations with the PA over the unity deal between Hamas and PA President Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah party.
“Instead of choosing peace, Abu Mazen (Abbas) formed an alliance with a murderous terrorist organization (Hamas) that calls for the destruction of Israel,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday.
“Hamas has fired more than 10,000 missiles and rockets at Israeli territory and has not halted terrorist actions against Israel even for a minute,” Netanyahu added.

The thought processes and logic of anyone who ever believed peace can be achieved with those who have sworn to murder Israel any number of times escapes me entirely. These continued fruitless, idiotic attempts are worse than doing nothing at all for they encourage the terrorists by making the good guys look stupid. Which in fact they are.

As a good friend told me 20 years ago, there will never be piece in the ME when Israel is concerned. Israel has to protect herself as the rest of the world will not.
DVult says
Everybody except John Kerry knew the peace talks would not succeed. All he managed to do was force the Israelis to release a bunch of blood thirsty murderers. That red stuff on his hands is not ketchup.

“That red stuff on his hands is not ketchup.”
You are absolutely right there, DVult.

The Palestinians, like other Arabs, have mainly a religious, not a national identity. They, like their brethren in Syria, want to wage war against infidels to establish Sharia law. That’s their idea of “liberation”.
To really achieve peace, Islamic supremacism must be replaced with a striving for equality, and Islamic narcissism (the we’re-perfect-you-suck mentality) must be replace by self-criticism. While that’s a difficult goal, we can start by electing officials who understand those principles and can articulate them as policy. I nominate Pamela and Robert.
I’m optimistic that Arab culture can change since it is in everyone’s self-interest that it do so, though it may take a few centuries.

Hypovirulent Islamoculture — inoculate ’em with it! You Jewish authors of mischief in the land are cunning, jewdog —

The Palestinian Muslims want peace almost as much as the love playing the martyr. ALMOST
Champ says
Calling the “Chief “Palestinian” “peace” negotiator a LIAR is just too easy, but there you have it …
Wellington says
Actually, I grant him sincerity and therein lies the core of the problem, not just with the PA and Hamas but with all of Islam.

Pull this clown off the world stage! His mouth starts with lies…he has nowhere to go from there.
Cred=Zero.
Salah says
Erekat said Hamas “is not and will never be a terrorist organization to us.”
Of course he is lying; Hamas *is* a terrorist organization, an offshoot of the Muslim Brotherhood international terrorist organization (who btw is running the show from the White House).
Having said that, I think it’s good to see a united government under the leadership of Abbas. This way it will be its responsibility to stop all terrorist activities in the region. A government is more accountable than a gang of mad dogs!
Aardvark says
What he is saying is completely false,but, as Wellington points out above, he does not see it as a lie. He believes it is true.
Islam is founded on ideas that are obviously arrant nonsense, but which mohammedans accept as truth. How can a lying, mass-murdering, child-molesting bandit leader be seen as a perfect exemplar for moral behaviour? Yet he is accepted as such by literally millions of mohammedans.
How can it be ‘honourable’ to murder your own child? Yet mohammedans do so.
How murdering someone simply because they disagree with you be justified? Mohammedans do it on a daily basis.
There is no cure for this sort of insanity; the only answer is isolation. Get them out of the civilized West, and break off ALL relations with mohammedan countries. Set up a barrier tighter than the Iron Curtain, and let them drift back to savagery and ignorance on their own, while we move on.
john spielman says
Erekat is lying to the world just as his demon god Allah commands him, so as to gain advantage over us.

Well he’s right of course. They’re not terrorists and he’s not a Palestinian
Proving that two wrongs do not make a right
Geordie says
Only a complete simpleton would believe anything a Chief Palestinian Negotiator would say. The PLO, Hamas and muslim brotherhood have repeatedly and very publically stated that their aim is to completely destroy the parliamentary democratic republic of Israel. They will settle for nothing less.
judi says
Er, of course they aren’t terrorists Saeb. As if…….
Charli Main says
Well of course, according to the Muslim mind set, there are no Muslim terrorists or Muslim terrorist organisations.
They are ALL poor victimised Muslims defending themselves against unprovoked attacks by foul, ignorant, sub-human infidels that refuse to acknowledge their divine, Allah given right, to invade and take over every non-Muslim country in the World.
Its so simple, so why can´t the ignorant Kaffirs understand that ?????’
duh_swami says
Just because you believe something doesn’t make it real. Mahoundians believe their beliefs because they believe their beliefs, and those are molded by Islam. Molded then fixed with superglue.
‘Fixed delusions’, the psychiatrists call it, religions call it dogma. I call it, the ‘delusions of the pious’…A delusion dictated from Allah’s celestial office, is called Islam. Over a billion humans are infected with it.
