Abbas Warns of "Hard Measures" If Israel Doesn't Accept PA Demands
(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon and Khaled Abu Toameh - PA President Mahmoud Abbas warned, before the Quartet-sponsored talks in Amman on Tuesday, that Israel's failure to accept Palestinian demands would prompt him to take "hard measures." Speaking in Ramallah, Abbas said the peace process would not be revived unless Israel agreed to freeze settlement construction and accept the pre-1967 lines. "If Israel does not accept the Palestinian demands, we will take other measures which we cannot detail. These measures could be hard," he said.
