#1 âLasting peace and stability in the Middle East will not be possible until the Palestinian people achieve their independent state and the honorable, prosperous and free life they deserve,â Turkish Parliament Speaker Bulent Arinc said at a lunch with Abbas.

I agree.

#2 âWith the support of peace-loving nations, Jerusalem will again belong to the Muslims and worship will continue in Jerusalem until doomsday,â

Dunno, just got out of bed... but this does not sound too peaceful.

Palestinian people achieve their independent state

Don't they have a majority in Jordan?

the honorable, prosperous and free life they deserve

Somehow, this snippet catapulted me to my school years when we learned about mechanics and cause and effect.

#3 Abbas: "...Jerusalem will again belong to the Muslims...".
On that alone I can see that Abbas isn't going to accomplish anything more than Arafat did.

#4 Turkey to Back Abbasâ Struggle for Statehood

The only "struggling" that Mazen is going to be doing is with the enemies under his own roof.

"..Jerusalem will again belong to the Muslims.."

Himself included.

#5 Jerusalem under control of Muslims. Not in my lifetime or anyones I hope.

Abbas needs to get a grip. This is not a possibility. Forget it.
