| Abbas ready to talk with Israel even if Hamas in govt |
| 2006-01-26 |
 Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas said he is ready to resume peace talks with Israel, even if Hamas joins his government after Wednesday’s legislative vote. “We are ready to negotiate,” Abbas told Israeli reporters who were in Ramallah to cover the election. “We are partners with the Israelis. They don’t have the right to choose their partner. But if they are seeking a Palestinian partner, this partner exists,” he said. |

| #2 What they deliver is talk. For a suitable territorial withdrawel by the Israelis, they'll talk until, and through, the next x number of suicide attacks. Fooey. A partner for peace must be able to make promises, and then deliver on them. Mr. Abbas is capable of neither. |

| #1 “We are ready to negotiate,” Abbas told Israeli reporters who were in Ramallah to cover the election. Doesn't mean squat. The Paleos talk and talk and talk, but don't deliver. |
