The Palestinians still haven’t had their fill of violence and hatred: Palestinians Reject Sharon’s Peace ‘Test’.

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters) - The Palestinian Authority on Friday rejected Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s new and seemingly softer terms for restarting peace talks, saying he should drop all conditions for dialogue.

Sharon, proposing what he called a test for a new Palestinian leadership, said on Thursday it could show its desire for peace by ending anti-Israeli “incitement” even before the crackdown he has long demanded it launch against militants.

“(The Israelis) should begin by abandoning their policy of setting conditions and stop their incitement (against the Palestinians),” Palestinian cabinet minister Saeb Erekat told Reuters in response.
