Mahmoud Abbas avoiding negotiations

Since taking office in 2009,  Prime Misnister Benjamin Netanyahu has extended gestures towards the Palestinians to encourge their return to the negotiating table with Israel.  He has voiced in support of a solution for the conflict between the  two states, Isreal and Palestinian.   By doing this he has broken the policies of his predecessors.  He enforced the freeze on constructions on the building of new Jewish homes in Judea and Samaria.  For the stopping on construction to build homes, Isreal was asking for the agreement that they had signed, to be respected and for the Palestinian to have a readness to negotiate with them.

Palestinian Chairman Mahmoud Abass has avoided talking to the Isreal goverment.  To make matters worse he is tring to  talk with Hamas to reconcile their differences.  Hamas has still been firing missiles on  the Isreal cities and towns.  Abass is also lobbing to the U.N. for unilateral recognition, insted of recognizing that Isreal exists as a Jewish State.  This agreement could possible end the conflict between these two state.

Isreal calls for the support of the world to call for negotiation and resolvoing the confilcit.  Rather that give in to Palestinian ploys that will lead to more distrust, hardship and conflict.
