Abbas adviser says Palestinian elections ‘very likely’ to be postponed
|
[IsraelTimes] Nabil Shaath, an adviser to Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase....
, says in a statement that the Paleostinian national elections scheduled for next month are "very likely" to be postponed in light of Israel’s refusal to allow the vote to go forward in East Jerusalem.
A plausible excuse. But really it’s because the Palestinian/PLO/Fatah vote will be split, leading to Hamas winning the presidency for the second time. Shaath says that if Israel continues to ignore the PA’s request to hold the elections in East Jerusalem, "the electoral process will be postponed."
He adds that PA Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki has been sent to Europa
 ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
to push for international pressure on Israel on the matter.
The Paleostinians view East Jerusalem as the capital of their future state, while Israel considers the entire city its undivided capital and bars any PA activity from taking place in the city.
Shaath’s comments came a day after the Paleostinian Elections Commission said most Paleostinians in East Jerusalem will be able to vote in next month’s elections, regardless if Israel permits voting in the city.
The commission said some 150,000 residents will be able to vote in what Paleostinians call the "Jerusalem suburbs" — towns and villages that ring the capital. Israel defines these areas as lying in the West Bank, while the Paleostinian Authority see them as part of its "Jerusalem Governorate."
Abbas announced in mid-January that the Paleostinians would hold their first elections in over 15 years. Paleostinians last went to the ballot box in the 2006 legislative elections, which led Hamas, the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®, to a landslide victory over Abbas’s Fatah movement.
Paleostinians are scheduled to head to legislative elections next month and then to presidential elections on July 31.
