Principle Paper for Peace or a Waste of Time?
by Ziad Khalil Abu Zayyad ~ June 9th, 2008. Filed under: Palestinian, Israeli Conflict.In the last few days signs of disagreement and argument appeared between the two Israeli and Palestinian negotiating teams although they declared the beginning of writing a principal paper about the points they agree on. Some analysts said that the reason fo such a declaration only was published for the sake of supporting Ehud Olmert the Israeli Prime Minister that is in a difficult situation politically in his country.
The Palestinians did not receive their money earns and payments that they are supposed to be given every month from the Israeli government in order to pay the salaries of their employees. Officially the Israelis said that this happened only because of some technical obstacles. Off the record some Israeli and Palestinian politicians and officials said that this happened in order to send a clear warning to Abu Mazen because of his invitation to reopen the negotiations with Hamas and reach a unity government with them.
The Palestinian authorities are interested in reaching an agreement with Hamas as it happened between the political forces in Lebanon. This could be another playing card instead of giving the Israelis the chance to open two ways of negotiations with Ramalla and Gaza. From the other side it would be better for Israel and even easier to act with the Palestinians as long as they are separated. Although Israel is facing a real change in its politics because of what its prime minister is facing in court, the negotiations still take place between the Palestinians and the Israelis.
This could be either a waste of time or only a matter of keeping things on their track in order not to lose control of the situation between the two sides of the conflict. As we can all see clearly there is no will to reach peace not until the end of this year or even the coming few years. Indeed still the idea of bringing security and inside security is the winning idea that the people are interested in and want to achieve without hard decisions or signing peace with the others.

I think, it is for just talk on papers but until people and politic don’t understand do something. There many communist people in every countries/haters and they are the making people fight against each other.
