In answer to Terry
Reader comment on item: Which Way Will Abbas Go?

Submitted by Neila Hachicha (Tunisia), Jan 11, 2005 at 19:30

Yes indeed, Abbas has exactly the same way of thinking that Arafat had; he is only using a different way of communication. We Arabs who live under dictatorships, know exactly how these guys try to lie.

The problem is that every one today is helping him strengthen his legitimacy, beginning with the White House.

So now that he is promoting non-violent strategies, it's a good time to test him and propose one democratic state for all at least to see how he will answer.
