MUST BE THAT PALESTINIAN SENSE OF HUMOR. A Jerusalem Post article on growing Arab pressure on Abbas to reconcile with Hamas includes this from Abbas aid Ahmed Abdel Rahman:

"We welcome all Arab, Palestinian and international efforts and initiatives aimed at ending the military coup in the Gaza Strip," he said. "What happened in the Gaza Strip serves only the interests of Israel and its expansionist schemes."

Putting aside the return of the Sinai, considering the Disengagement on the one hand and Olmert's determination to follow through on the Convergence Plan in the West Bank--hasn't Rahman noticed that the only thing expanding is the Palestinian Territory?

Come on Ahmed, get with the program. That is sooooo last century.

Technorati Tag: Israel and Ahmed Abdel Rahman.
