Kerry Cancels Abbas Meeting as PA Requests To Join UN Agencies

Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas breached the conditions of the peace talks Tuesday by signing a request to join several United Nations (UN) agencies.

Abbas obligated himself to refrain from such unilateral moves for international recognition during the course of the peace talks, restarted last July by US Secretary of State John Kerry.

It's ok, though, apparently:

Seems like Kerry said that none of the things Abbas signed up for involve the UN. How much of that is true, I don't know.

I enjoy reading the comments under stories like the ones posted above; sometimes they're more interesting than the stories themselves. Here's one from The Jerusalem Post:

Kerry's comments were full of boilerplate notions and non-committal statements. The fact that he isn't coming back to meet with Abbas shows he needs to reassess his entire approach.

But you will NEVER see him put the blame on the Palestinians for their refusal to make legitimate peace.

That's kind of a funny word. Is the US afraid of those people or something? This is mostly rhetorical.

All day I had read about the 400 Prisoners with a release of Pollard. When I hopped on tonight I was surprised that things had already gone south. In my opinion, Abbas is having a hissy fit because he did not get his way. We all know that somehow this kink in the peace process will be Israel's fault.
