2020-11-18 Israel-Palestine-Jordan

[Jpost] PA Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh said that the Palestinians have received a written document in which Israel pledges to abide by all the agreements with the Palestinians.

The Paleostinian Authority on Tuesday said it has decided to renew its relations with Israel, including security coordination, after receiving assurances that Israel would abide by the signed agreements with the Paleostinians.

The announcement was made by Hussein al-Sheikh, head of the PA General Authority for Civil Affairs, who is in charge of coordination between the Paleostinians and Israel.

Senior Israeli officials confirmed that security coordination with the PA was being restored.

The decision is likely to hinder efforts to end the dispute between the ruling Paleostinian Fatah faction and Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,, which has long opposed security coordination between the PA and Israel, dubbing it an act of treason.

The decision to restore the ties came in light of contacts made by PA President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas

"regarding Israel’s commitment to the bilateral and signed agreements," Sheikh said.

"Based on the official written and verbal letters we received, confirming Israel’s commitment, the relationship with Israel will be restored," he said.

PA Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh said the Paleostinians have received a written document in which Israel pledges to abide by all the agreements with the Paleostinians. He did not provide further details.

Shtayyeh expressed hope that the new US administration under Joe Foreign Policy Whiz Kid Biden

...Candidate for president in 2020. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
would support the two-state solution on the basis of "land for peace."

Sheikh and Shtayyeh did not specifically mention the security coordination with Israel.

A senior PA official in Ramallah, however, told The Jerusalem Post the decision includes the resumption of security coordination between the two sides.

The decision was taken after the Paleostinians received "assurances from several European Union
...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
officials that Israel won’t take any unilateral move in the near future" and remains committed to all the signed agreements, the official said.

The official was referring to Israel’s since-shelved plan to apply illusory sovereignty to portions of the West Bank.

According to the official, the Paleostinians also have agreed to receive the tax revenues that Israel collects on their behalf. In the past six months, the Paleostinians have refused to accept the tax revenues due to Israel’s decision to deduct the sum of stipends paid by the PA to the families of Paleostinian prisoners and those killed during terrorist attacks on Israelis.

In May, Abbas announced that the PA was "absolved" of all security agreements and understandings with Israel. His announcement came in response to the Israeli "annexation" plan and in protest of the policies and decisions of US President Donald Trump
...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party...
toward the Paleostinians.

The decision to restore ties with Israel was aimed at paving the way for resuming contacts between the Paleostinians and the new Biden administration, another PA official told the Post.

"We have received many positive messages from the Biden team in the past few days," the official said. "We are looking forward to opening a new page with the Biden administration after the damage caused by the Trump administration."

Earlier in the day, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories Maj.-Gen. Kamil Abu Rukun wrote a letter to Sheikh, in which he stated the following.

"Israel has previously stated that the bilateral Israeli-Paleostinian agreements continue to form the applicable legal framework governing the conduct of the parties. On financial and other matters.

"Therefore, in accordance with these agreements Israel continues to collect taxes for the Paleostinian Authority. Unfortunately it was the Paleostinian Authority which decided not to receive those collected funds from Israel."

#2 Wonder if Biden remembers the time his bloviating bullshit & bullying provoked Menachem Begin to humiliate Biden in front of the Sebate and the world:

In 1982, Biden thought he could appeal to the perceived nativism of the Dixiecrats by publicly threatening to cut off aid to the Jewish state. In July of that year, he used an appearance of Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin before the Senate Finance Committee to threaten to cut off aid to Israel.

After enduring Biden’s fist-pounding tirade, Begin responded with the eloquence that was his trademark. Looking directly at Biden, Menachem Begin said:

“Don’t threaten us with cutting off aid to Israel. It will not work. I am not a Jew with trembling knees. I am a proud Jew with 3,700 years of civilized history. Nobody came to our aid when we were dying in the gas chambers and ovens Nobody came to our aid we were striving to create our country. We paid for it. We fought for it. We died for it. We will stand by our principles. We will defend them. And, when necessary, we will die for them again, with or without your aid.”

The always proper and dignified Begin then lectured Biden on his manners. Looking directly at him he said, “This desk is designed for writing, not for fists.” Biden’s behavior was so out of line that immediately after Senator Moynihan approached the Jewish Prime Minister and praised him for his cutting reply..
