PA and Fatah officials keep accusing Israel of killing Arafat, recently at two public memorial ceremonies commemorating Arafat’s death.

Following PMW presentation, Cong. lIleana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL) calls on US to “condition assistance to the PA" on their taking "meaningful steps” to peace.

This is a unique opportunity for Fatah and Abbas to officially and publicly eradicate four principles that are basic foundations of the conflict, thereby demonstrating that the Palestinians have joined the peace process.

Defending the Palestinian Authority's "right" to use terror, Dahlan cited Arafat's behavior as an example: "Arafat would condemn [terror] operations by day while at night he would do honorable things."

Senior Fatah leader, Muhammad Dahlan: Palestinian Authority's apparent "recognition" is meant to make the PA "acceptable" to the international community, and thereby allow it to continue to receive international aid.
