Curious - from The Jerusalem Post:
Saudi ex-intel chief slams Palestinian's criticism of UAE-Israel deal
Saudi Arabia's former intelligence chief and ambassador to the United States, Prince Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz, slammed the Palestinian leadership for criticizing the decision of some Gulf states to normalize ties with Israel.
In an interview with Saudi-owned Al Arabiya television aired on Monday, the prince labeled the Palestinian authorities' criticism a "transgression" and "reprehensible discourse."
"The Palestinian cause is a just cause but its advocates are failures, and the Israeli cause is unjust but its advocates have proven to be successful. That sums up the events of the last 70 or 75 years," he said in the first of a three-part airing of the interview.
"There is something that successive Palestinian leadership historically share in common: they always bet on the losing side, and that comes at a price."
Much more at the site. Heh - got to love the coment: "they always bet on the losing side" They could have had their own Nation and they could have had peace with Israel at any time. Israel was more than willing to accomodate them. Instead, they thought that they were relevant and they thought that they could get everything they asked for. They used terrorism as a negotiating tactic.
Now, watch their power and their relavence melt away into the sand. A bunch of has-beens. The origin of their claim is interesting. Yasser Arafat was an Egyptian who studied in Moscow for nine years. The palestinian conflict was a KGB dirty trick.
