Mother of 4 terrorist murderers chosen by the PA to launch statehood campaign - Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik (PMW)
I'm sure you've been reading about the PA bid for statehood at the UN. Here's some background: Palestinians Rejected Statehood 3 Times, But Claim Frustration with Israel. In 2008, present leader Mahmoud Abbas rejected Ehud Olmert's peace plan. Just as his predecessor, Yasir Arafat, rejected President Clinton's plan in 2000 (which Israeli PM Ehud Barak accepted). As for Palestinian frustration, they may indeed be frustrated with more than 18 years of on-again, off-again negotiations, but the question is with whom should they be frustrated – Israel, or their own leaders? Olmert's plan would have annexed the major Israeli settlements to Israel and in return given equivalent Israeli territory to the Palestinians, and would have divided Jerusalem. Numerous settlements including Ofra, Elon Moreh, Beit El and Kiryat Arba would have been evacuated, and Hebron would have been abandoned. Tens of thousands of settlers would have been uprooted. Olmert even says preliminary agreement had been reached with Abbas on refugees and the Palestinian claim to a "right of return." Olmert recounted much of this in an interview with Greg Sheridan in the Australian and Abbas confirmed this in an interview with Jackson Diehl of the Washington Post.
