Mahmoud Abbas Israeli Quotations

We have agreed with Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to cease all acts of violence against the Israelis and against the Palestinians wherever they are. Tranquility and quiet that will be witnessed and in our land, starting today, is the beginning for a new era.

We have agreed with Prime Minister Sharon to cease all violence against the Israelis and against the Palestinians, wherever they are,

As for relations and contacts with the Israelis, we are completely certain they are going to resume very rapidly because there are many things we can tackle with the Israelis and which must be discussed,

no one would have the right to cancel any of the issues that the Israelis and the Palestinians would negotiate to find a final permanent solution for all these issues.

While we are happy the Israelis have left Gaza ... we really have no hope for the future here in the West Bank,

We condemn such actions and demand the Israelis stop these acts especially given the fact that all the factions here have recommitted to calm and to ending displays of weaponry in the streets,

The Israelis say: 'OK, we'll impose a unilateral solution' - which means that they will postpone, delay the struggle and they will not solve the problem.

I'm giving the facts. They (the monitors) left at 9:20 a.m., and the Israelis came in at 9:30 a.m. How can we explain that?

We have to reach the moment when the vision of President Bush to have two states for the Israelis and the Palestinians is implemented.
