Fatah official: Our goal has never been peace
But of course the learned analysts, from Obama on down, will never be convinced of this. “Fatah official: ‘Our goal has never been peace. Peace is a means; the goal is Palestine,’” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik for Palestinian Media Watch, July 12 (thanks to Rachel):
The PA will resume violence and terror against Israel when Fatah is “capable,” and “according to what seems right,” Fatah activist Kifah Radaydeh says in a PA TV interview. She states openly that peace is not a goal for Fatah:
“It has been said that we are negotiating for peace, but our goal has never been peace. Peace is a means; the goal is Palestine.”
Radaydeh says that “armed struggle” has not been ruled out and will continue, depending on how “capable” the PA forces are.
