Report: Abbas, Olmert Shouted At Each Other in Meeting
(IsraelNN.com) Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas traded angry shouts in what the Arabic newspaper Al Quds said was a stormy meeting on Sunday. The Prime Minister charged that Abbas has not been able to control armed terrorists in Judea and Samaria.
Abbas shouted back at the Prime Minister that Israel is to blame for the destruction of the barrier separating Egypt and Gaza at the border city of Rafiah. PA negotiator Saeb Erekat quoted Abbas as saying that Israel still is an "occupier" of Gaza and therefore is responsible for the area. He explained to reporters that the PA includes Gaza as well as Judea and Samaria and it would never consider the two areas being separate entities.
