Shortly before a widely reported “peace meeting” between Mahmoud Abbas and two Israeli cabinet ministers, PA Authority Prime Minister Mohammad Shtayyeh hinted at destroying Israel.
Arabic media quoted Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Shtayyeh as saying, “there is no solution to the Palestinian issue on the horizon,” and that this would entail the replacement of Israel with a Palestinian state extending “from the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea.”
Meanwhile, in the Gaza Strip, leaders of the US-designated Hamas terror group attended a conference where participants called for the ethnic cleansing of Jews from the Holy Land.
Abbas has previously said there are no ideological disagreements between Fatah – the ruling party of the PA , which he heads – and the terrorist group Hamas.
