Abbas’ advisor: Israeli PM Netanyahu “is just a clerk of the US administration who obeys its orders”

PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas’ Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash: “The one who makes the decisions about continuing the [Israeli] aggression or stopping the aggression (i.e., Israeli operation against Hamas) is the American administration. [Israeli Prime Minister] Netanyahu is just carrying it out. He is just a clerk of the American administration who obeys its orders and carries out its instructions… All the senior American officials who come to the region are participating in meetings of Israel’s war council, because they are the ones who are directing the battle… Israel is an American colonialist interest.”
