As Gaza worsens, Palestinian leader controls fate of US plan - AP
The AP reports, "Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has been sidelined, isolated and
humiliated by the Trump administration. But the embattled Palestinian
leader may have the final say in determining the fate of the White
House’s long-awaited vision for Mideast peace."
Comment: This is another good example of the news media exaggerating the power of the Palestinians over the peace process. Has there ever been a peace agreement they have accepted? If there is power is saying no, then they have that. But if there is power and influence in negotiating and promoting a deal for the betterment of their people, then they have demonstrated that they have no power.
