As the Palestinian Papers continue to leak out, and continue to reveal the unseemly policies of the Palestinian Authority, PA officials are blasting al-Jazeera for its role in the leak and insisting all of the information, despite being confirmed repeatedly by Israeli and Western officials, are lies made up by the Qatari government to embarrass them.
Indeed, PA President Mahmoud Abbas held a rally today where protesters burned posters of the Qatari Emir, and told them that al-Jazeera had faked all of the documents to trick Palestinians. He was greeted with a chorus of cheers.
Meanwhile, yesterday’s “impromptu” attack on an al-Jazeera office in the West Bank turns out to have been anything but, as local journalists confirmed that the people leading the attackers were PA police officers wearing civilian clothes.
PA negotiator Saeb Erekat sought further action against al-Jazeera, insisting they were guilty of inciting violence against him and his family for reporting his involvement in past negotiations, including comments that seemed to eschew the right of return.
Another quisling has been exposed. To be expected and not a surprise as this is the norm for Arab rulers.
They believe they are in power by the "grace" of the US and Israel. What a sorry lot.
As an Arab, I can confidently say they are there by the grace of the West. We certainly would not have put those incompentants in power.
Every thing will come out from traitors who enjoy the good will as Iranian say biggest shaitan .
Blaming the messenger for their betrayal. The PA should be ashamed.
Classic Hasbara. Ain't that the shit?
Ok, the papers are revealing some really sick shit even though a lot of it was instinctively known, even if not the extent to which that dog Abbas was willing to sell his people down the river in order to get on Israel's good side. The Palestinians should administer justice, really, he has earned that much.
Another thing that irks me about this is the fact that the jackass has adopted Israel's posture: lie, blame the other side and misinformation. Is there no limit too low to which this jerk won't stoop in order to betray his people?
On a different note, Ha'aretz reports that the papers were leaked by a CIA agent.

Ha ha! The CIA is going rogue and turning against its master. Love it!
It seems to me that the PA are out to create a sort of ‘Vichi’-like state. The Vichi ‘Government’ in France under Marshal Petain, was a NAZI creation during WW2. and saved them from occupying a large part of France which would have taken a lot of manpower. After the war Petain was prosecuted for high treason and subsequently executed. (as were many quislings at the time). During WW2 the Zionists in Palestine, then still composed of a number of terrorist gangs (Haganah, Stern Gang and others), allied themselves with and received weapons from the French Vichi forces in Lebaon and Syria (French colonies) in their war against British forces in the then Palestinian/British controled Mandate. The similarities between Marshal Petain of WW2 and to-days Abas of the PA.are striking. Both are betraying their people.
It seem that the PA under Abas and his cronies are out to create a sort of a Nazi like 'Vichi' Government as it existed under Marshall Petain during WW2 . After the war Petain was prosecuted and subsequently executed for high treason as were many quislings in the occupied countries of Europe at the time. Its interesting g to note that the Zionists during that time still composed of a number of terrorist organsations (Haganah, Stern Gang etc later amalgamated into the IDF) were allying themselves with the French Vichi forces stationed in Lebanon and Syria (French colonies) when fighting the British in the Paletinain Mandate.
