My Way News - Israel FM confirms interim Palestinian state plan
My Way News reports: "Israel's foreign minister confirmed Monday that he has drawn up a plan for the creation of an interim Palestinian state with temporary borders in the absence of a full peace agreement. Avigdor Lieberman argued that an interim arrangement was the only option, saying the Palestinians have turned down previous Israeli offers and no agreement is possible at present."

My Way News - Peru recognizes Palestinian state
My Way News reports: "Peru has joined a growing number of South American countries in recognizing an independent and sovereign Palestinian state. However, the decision announced by Foreign Minister Jose Antonio Garcia Belaunde does not recognize Palestine's borders pre-dating the Six-Day War of 1967, when Israel captured the West Bank and Gaza."

My Way News - Palestinians lash out over document leak
My Way News reports: "President Mahmoud Abbas and his aides went on the attack Monday, accusing Al-Jazeera television of lies and distortions in publishing the so-called 'Palestine Papers,' which claim that Palestinian negotiators were ready to make significant concessions for a peace deal with Israel."

Comment: Leaked documents reveal Palestinian leaders were actively engaged in serious peace talks...they will now be punished by their people who, we can surmise, don't really want peace with Israel. If they did, this would not be an issue, would it?
