| 2013-01-31 |
| [Al Ahram] Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,'s approval of the two-state solution reveals the tendency of the movement to cooperate with the political platform of the Paleostine Liberation Organisation (PLO), senior Paleostinian negotiator Saeb Erekat ...negotiated the Oslo Accords with Israel. He has been chief Paleostinian negotiator since 1995. He is currently negotiating with Israel to establish a de jure Paleostinian state... told the Saudi Al-Sharq Al-Awsat newspaper Wednesday. Erekat, a member of the PLO Executive Committee, stated that the decision of the Islamist movement to accept a state based on pre-1967 borders with East Jerusalem as its capital stems from its willingness to pave the way for further inter-Paleostinian reconciliation. "Hamas has to maintain this orientation in case of a future revival of talks with the Israeli side, as the two-state solution signifies the cornerstone of the PLO's position towards the grinding of the peace processor," he noted. Meanwhile, ...back at the barn, Bossy had come up with a new idea... Erekat welcomed the recent meeting between Hamas leader Khaled Meshal and Jordan's King Abdullah II, calling on the international community to understand that Amman is a "partner" to the Paleostinians. Meshal said Monday that the world "must respect" Paleostinian reconciliation talks during a visit to Jordan, a palace statement said. |
