Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas announced he was cutting all ties, including security cooperation, with both Israel and the US. The following day, everything was back to normal, as if nothing had happened.
Palestinian officials say that this was just a “hint” of Abbas’s most valuable card, that he can cut off security cooperation with Israel if things aren’t going the way the Palestinian Authority needs them to go.
Some are expressing doubts whether Abbas could actually do a permanent cut, even if he wanted to. Israel doesn’t view it as a credible threat at this point, but they continue to agitate the Palestinians, and may force Abbas to make such rash moves.
Severing ties is an implied aspect of Abbas’s threat to end the Oslo Accords. With Israel moving toward annexation and the Trump plan precluding a Palestinian state, Abbas could quickly find himself with no other options but to do this.
Pathetic Abbas, Pathetic Palestinians. They deserve the Israeli boot on their necks.
” They deserve the Israeli boot on their necks.”
No, they don’t.
Tell it, Skywalker. Tell it!! The Palestinians deserve their lands back and their freedom, not the Israeli boot on their necks.
NO, they need to unite and get real leaders and fight. Nobody will help them.
Tyranny: the administration of justice without mercy. The Palestinians are at the mercy of those who have no mercy, those who can sit in their Ivory Towers and feast on the fat of the land while the always lessor creatures starve. They enjoy lording it over the poor while they systematically rob them of their lands and livelihoods.
Abbas, the Zionist policeman charged with keeping Palestinians enslaved and disarmed, would “sever all ties with Israal and the US”, and somebody believed it?
After finally doing something, he caves. As if the poor Palestinians need more betrayal.
