Resumption of Israeli-Palestinian talks- Some Clues-1
Time has Runout for Fascist Israel in Mideast (Part 28)
-DR. ABDUL RUFF COLACHAL
*************

The international efforts, if any, to delegitimize Israel with economic, cultural and academic boycotts must continue as long as Zionists refuse to help establish Palestine state.
Israeli fascism reigns in Mideast. The Mideast “peace” negotiations are set to resume this week with a gala summit meeting in Washington after months of American mediation efforts but not entirely opposing the Zionist masscre and proliferation of illegal settlements. Jordan and Egypt, both of which have peace treaties with Israel and share borders with it, have been invited to attend the formal launch of the Washington talks. Jordan's King Abdullah II and Israeli military terror Minister Ehud Barak met in Amman on 28th August for talks ahead of the Washington summit.
Israel captured the West Bank from Jordan in the 1967 war and began building settlements there soon after. There are more than 100 of them in the West Bank today, territory the Palestinians envision for their future state along with the Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem. The international community at large does not recognize the settlements as legally part of Israel. Thanks to manipulative tactics of US-Israeli extremist leaders, the Palestinian Authority is split between the Western-backed Fatah party in the West Bank and the ruling Islamic Hamas that controls Gaza since it ousted the deadly opposing Fatah supporters in street battles in 2007.
Under intense American pressure, Israeli Prime Terrorist B. Netanyahu declared a 10-month partial freeze in settlement construction to boost prospects for talks, but the negotiations are resuming just three weeks before the freeze expires. Netanyahu has not pledged to renew it, facing stiff opposition from hard-line coalition partners in his government. Israelis themselves are divided over the settlements, including how many should be dismantled, if any, to enable the creation of a Palestinian state. Reflecting that divide, leading Israeli theater actors and playwrights pledged not to perform in West Bank settlements, an announcement that drew sharp criticism from Israel’s Prime Terrorist B.Netanyahu.

Netanyahu had tactfully ordered a partial building freeze in an effort to get talks with the Palestinians back on track. U.S. special envoy George Mitchell shuttled back and forth between the sides for the past few months, urging them to agree to resume negotiations. The Palestinians have already announced they will withdraw from peace talks if the illegal building is renewed and settlement proliferation is continued. The fate of east Jerusalem lies at the heart of the settlement dispute. Israel wants all of Jerusalem its eternal capital, while the Palestinians want Jerusalem as the capital of their future state.

In order to prolong the crisis and unlealsh masscre in the meantime, Netanyahu has been calling for direct talks to resume without preconditions soon after he took office last year.The Palestinians, however, have been reluctant to return to the negotiating table, fearing that they will be blamed if the talks collapse. That has left them hesitant to commit to new negotiations without Israel first agreeing to preconditions, such was a freeze on settlement construction in the West Bank. Hamas leader in Gaza Ismail Haniyeh condemned the renewal of talks and demanded a boycott. Also, the European Union said it will not participate in the talks. The bloc said foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton will be in Beijing at the time.

Netanyahu, getting ready to fly to Washington for this week's relaunching of the direct Israeli-Palestinian talks after a break of two years, has expressed optimism that upcoming direct talks with the Palestinians could achieve a "stable" peace accord. "We can reach a peace based on stability for us and for our children and that is my goal," he said. But he the hawk who has killed number of innocnet Palesitnians during his two terms as terror PM, showed little readiness to accept a key Palestinian demand for the course of the direct talks, that Israel extend beyond September 26 the current freeze on building new settlements in the West Bank.

With a view to blocking in advnace any possible agreement in a usual pre-emptive fasion, Netanyahu said the top essential component of a peace agreement is the recognition of Israel as the Jewish homeland and an end to further demands on Israel. Ahead of the cabinet meeting, Netanyahu rejected a suggestion by Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor for restarting construction only in those major settlements near the Green Line which in any event were expected to become part of Israel in a future deal. All terror minded, hawkish members of Netanyahu terror coalition government oppose any concessions to the Palestinians, and one unleashed a harsh tirade against the Palestinians.

The Palestinians never endorsed the freeze, because it did not halt all construction in the West Bank and did not apply to east Jerusalem, the section claimed by the Palestinians for a future capital. Speaking in a televised address recorded earlier in Jordan, Abbas said "the Israeli government holds full responsibility for the failure and the collapse of these negotiations if it continues settlement expansion in all the occupied Palestinian territories," a clear reference to east Jerusalem. Palestinians criticize Abbas for not securing Israeli concessions in advance of the talks. The Palestinians broke off direct negotiations and similar “talks” in December 2008, when fascist Israel staged a bloody terror offensive into the Gaza Strip, killing thousnads of innocent Paleslitnians, icluding children call them all as “terrorists” but only to facilitate the reelection of the previous regime.

The Palestinians have warned that the talks would be immediately broken off if Israel began construction again. The Israeli leader's proposal to resume “talks” appears to indicate that he is now serious about the talks and won't allow them to fizzle out after next week's meeting in the USA. However, Palestinian (Fatah) President Mahmoud Abbas warned from West Bank on 28 August that he will not back down from his threat to pull out of new peace talks with Israel if it resumes construction in West Bank settlements. Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said he hadn't heard about the proposal but would be open to the idea.

Meanwhile, Reflecting Israeli divisions over the settlements, more than 60 Israeli actors and playwrights signed a letter refusing to perform in the West Bank, because appearing in a settlement clashes with their political views. The issue came to the forefront because a $10 million performing arts center in Ariel, one of the West Bank's largest settlements, is set to open in November. A Jewsih religious top guy Rabbi Ovadia Yosef has employed nasty remarks about Arabs, Mulsims, Islam and Palleisntins. Yosef, a founder of the ultra-Orthodox Shas Party, also described Palestinians as "evil, bitter enemies of Israel." The 89-year-old former chief rabbi of Israel is a respected religious scholar among Jews of Middle Eastern descent, but is also known for vitriolic comments about Arabs, secular Jews, liberals, and women.

The Abbas government responded angrily, demanding in a statement that the Israeli government put a stop to what it described as a "culture of hatred in Israel toward Palestinians." The “piritual leader” of one of the hard-line parties in Netanyahu's coalition caused a stir by saying in his weekly Sabbath sermon that the Palestinians and Abbas should "perish from the world." Shas runs private schools that educate tens of thousands of Israeli children against Arabs and Palestinians. The Netanyahu office, a central part of the nasty Judaism, said in a statement that Netanyahu is going to the talks with a goal of "reaching an agreement with the Palestinians that will put an end to the conflict." U.S. State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley condemned the rabbi's comments, saying in a statement that they are "not only deeply offensive, but incitement such as this hurts the cause of peace."
In order to create peaceful conditions in the region, Israeli arrogance needs to be urgently contained and the international efforts to delegitimize Israel with economic, cultural and academic boycotts must continue as long as Zionists refuse to help establish Palestine state. The international community considers settlements in the West Bank, including Israeli-annexed east Jerusalem, to be illegal. They are home to about 500,000 illegal Israelis. Netanyahu wants permanent “talks” and plans to personally lead the talks and hopes to meet the Palestinian leader Abbas every two weeks. Key to the discussions will be the future of a partial Israeli moratorium on settlement construction in the occupied West Bank, which is due to end on September 26. Himself a hardcore hawk, Netanyahu faces strong pressure at home not to renew the freeze on new construction permits, while Abbas has warned that "if Israel resumes settlement activities, including in east Jerusalem, we cannot continue with negotiations."
On the whole, it appears every Jew in side the illegal settlments is a supporter of illegal settlements, genocides of Palestinians. The regime survies on entirely killing the Palestinians and grabing/confiscating their lands with support from the US-UK led Western powers.

Fake democracies like USA and India have zero tolerance to any criticism of their anti-Muslim and other aggressive practices. Anti-Muslimism and anti-Islamism are more dangerous than "terrorism".
Anti-Islamic forces & terrorists are using criminal elements for terrorizing the world and they are harming genuine interests of ordinary Muslims. We have many hypocrites among Muslims. Dr. Abdul Ruff (91-9961868309). abdulruff@gmail.com, abdulruff_jnu@yahoo.com)
