Collapse Feared for Palestinian Authority if Abbas Resigns

The possible collapse of the Palestinian Authority , Israel's negotiating partner, loomed Monday, as several aides to its president, Mahmoud Abbas , said that he intended to resign and forecast that others would follow.

Maybe it should collapse. It's not like they're moving towards peacy anyway.

excatly,maybe next gov't will be better,abbas anyway was an old fart,he was with arfat from the beginning i believe.

The Palestinian Authority already collapsed a long time ago. Nothing new. They never really controlled anything anyway. It's just a bunch of greedy and corrupt politicians who provide services for a fee.

Is Abbas going to retire now and live in Paris as has Arafat's wife done,with millioms of $$$ to her credit? www.jihad-watch.org

all the colonial powers who have started the last 2 world wars are trying to interfer with Israel and so is the US. And as for abbas, he nothing. Bibi should just tell them to buzz off. They are a bunch of gutless wonders. If they had rockets coming into their countries, well you know what britton did with the v-2s, They declared war, so what the big deal? Israe is a soverign nation, so the jerks need top back off...

Abbas has threatened to resign as PA Chairman nearly 12 times in his tenure. He's a Drama Sheik.
