Former Palestinian Authority PM Salam Fayyad says Palestinians must be tending to their very own pursuits, not Israel’s.
“No nationwide liberation motion in historical past is predicated on what its enemy needs,” says the previous prime minister of the Palestinian Authority, Salam Fayyad.
For the Palestinian Authority to have any legitimacy within the eyes of the Palestinian folks, the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) must broaden its membership to incorporate Hamas and Islamic Jihad, Fayyad tells host Steve Clemons.
With out attaining a “nationwide consensus”, the Palestinian Authority is in no place to rule the Gaza Strip when Israel’s battle on Gaza ends, Fayyad says. In any other case, the US’ hopes for a “revitalised” Palestinian management are pointless.
