A decade of US sponsored Israeli-Palestinian negotiations are leaked today by Al-Jazeera and The Guardian. The documents will be published over the next few days.
The minutes were recorded by the Palestinian based, UK sponsored, Negotiations Support Unit (NSU).
They show:
- On the Palestinian side: despair, humiliation, and endless concessions.
- On the Israeli side: extreme intransigence, contempt for Palestinians, and unwillingness to achieve peace.
- On the US side: total lack of neutrality always siding with Israel, absence of a genuine will to achieve peace, and contempt for Palestinians to the point of crude cruelty.
The peace process has long been dead and successive US and Israeli administrations were playing a sadistic game with Palestinians and their aspirations for peace and statehood while trying to convince us that they were working for peace.
