  2. <span>Well the answer is there your honor..Abbas' job was to ensure there wouldn't be one..He thawrted it in concert with his US/Israeli masters. That's why he said (upon announcing that he wouldn't be running for president" :" Go and find another donkey"...He realizes he's been used as a beast of  burden all along.

  5. Maybe Abbas felt that fighting a war with Israel in Dec'08/Jan'09 was premature? Maybe Abbas wanted more time to train and equip the Palestinians National Security Forces?

    I think it was premature for Hamas to fight Israel in Dec'08. Hamas' fighters were not ready.

    Do you know what intifada means? Uprising, and it's usually the population NOT the gov't forces who are involved..You got things tragically mixed up..
