		<description>We forget that the purse strings of the Palestinian Authority (aka formerly PLO) are in Washington.

Therefore anything that enhances or legitimizes Hamas is a no-no.

The dirty world of realpolitik at play here, nothing more.

		<description>&lt;he source said that “the arguments advanced by Mr. Abbas to put pressure on the politicians was that the Greek organizers of the conference, mostly are c&lt;strong&gt;lose to the government of Ismail Haniyeh&lt;/strong&gt; in Gaza and do not agree with the views of the &lt;strong&gt;PLO and the Palestinian Authority&lt;/strong&gt; to adopt a negotiating approach in dealing with Israel.”&gt;

What are the motives that make people obstruct a good cause?
Hunger for superiority , Power for this temporary world? Do you let your brothers and children suffer because the PLO and the  government of Ismail Haniyeh in Gaza are not in unity and agreement? &quot; Suffer little children , suffer&quot; breaks my heart. Astagfir Allah.</description>

		<description>Just a few words about the man, Mahmoud Abbas.
Mahmoud Abbas has been the Chairman of the Palestine Liberation Organisation since 11 November 2004 and became President of the Palestinian National Authority on 15 January 2005. Elected to serve until 9 January 2009, he unilaterally extended his term for another year. Rival political party Hamas announced it would not recognise the extension.
Abbas was chosen as the President of the “State of Palestine” by the Palestine Liberation Organisation’s Central Council on 23 November 2008, a job he had held unofficially since 8 May 2005.
&lt;strong&gt;On 9 January 2009, Abbas term as president, at least as he was originally elected, ended&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;ul&gt;
Abbas extended his term for another year, stating the Basic Law gave him the right to do so, so he could align the next presidential and parliamentary elections. Pointing to the Palestinian constitution, &lt;strong&gt;Hamas disputes the validity of this move, and considers Abbas’ term to have ended,&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;ul&gt; in which case Abdel Aziz Duwaik, Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council (or, since Israel has detained the speaker, his deputy Ahmad Bahar) has become acting president</description>
