Palestinians Fail to Reach Agreement on "National Unity"
(Jerusalem Post) Khaled Abu Toameh - A meeting of Palestinian leaders in Egypt ended on Sunday without agreement on ending the feud between Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah faction and Hamas. At the meeting, Abbas called for "peaceful popular resistance" against Israel, while Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh insisted on armed "comprehensive resistance." Palestinian Islamic Jihad, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command, and As-Sa'iqa boycotted Sunday's meeting.
