 Jerusalem (IINA) – The Palestinian Authority (PA) leadership doesn’t believe negotiations with Israel will produce any results, and therefore plans to step up its anti-Israel activity in international forums, according to Israeli intelligence assessment.
Haaretz Hebrew daily reported that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has despaired of negotiations both because of their lack of results during the sporadic talks he held during Netanyahu’s two previous terms and because of Netanyahu’s conflicting statements about the two-state solution in recent months. Abbas is apparently convinced that Netanyahu’s sole goal is to buy time until U.S. President Barack Obama’s term ends in January 2017.
The Israeli intelligence agencies predict that the PA will adopt a confrontational stance and try to undermine Israel’s standing in international agencies – not only the United Nations, but also dozens of other organizations, along the lines of last week’s failed bid to get Israel suspended from FIFA, the Federation of International Football Association. At this stage, they say, the struggle will remain largely nonviolent, the newspaper added.
