(Comment to a misleading CNN report, part XXVII.)
Abbas continues in power only because USA refuses to accept any other candidate who could win a presidential election. Abbas is ready to give Israel much in a desperate quest for a peace agreement and USA believes that they can force on him the most humiliating of agreements with time.
Even the most dovish supporters of non-violence among at least a bit serious presidential candidates are lightyears away when it comes to what they would accept compared to the broken man Abbas has become under US and Israeli pressure.
What you claim about the Gaza blockade is mostly wrong.
PA itself has become a hostage which US and Israel use to blackmail Abbas and his inner ring. But the hostage has become much more important to the hostage takers than to the Palestinians and also it suffers increasingly from a Stockholm's Syndrome.
Other false claims I have no time to debate about as the night has been long and the survival of Samer Issawi is the most important thing at the moment. More than just his own life depend on the survival of this brave hunger striker.
