Had a look at Netanyahu's page, full of Evengelical stooges thinking they are special because they can suck-up to Israel. One reason why Israel is where it is today is because of the amount of pro-Israeli promoters preaching nonsense to people who are don't even know where their country is on a map. So you have that plus the Islamophobic zeitgeist which creates the dangerous cocktail of right wing fanatics that run the powerful conservative circle of US politics.

So while the world runs after "mullahs and Jihadist", these Jewish and Evangelical extremists which are currently in power in Israel and has a major grip on US continues to thrive and supplement the hatred against not just Palestinians but Muslims around the world.

I think best things Palestinians can do is start playing the same game as Israel.

1) Since Israel doesn't like Palestinian extremist Hamas, Mahmoud Abbas should make it a point it does not deal with a Israeli coalition that would include the Shas and Yisrael Beiteinu party who advocate continuation of settlement. That would be fair as extremists are boycotted both ways.

2) State that East Jerusalem is the eternal capital of a Palestinian state and integral part of Muslim/Arab world.

3) Stop running to Washington at Obama's every whim. Either meet him at UN or ask him to come and brave the checkpoints at Ramallah for a change. Or even better send Saeeb Erakat to meet him.

Israel is determined to ensure that:

1) A peace deal never takes place
2) if it at all does, it must get most out of it (recall Netanyahu's proposal to setup interim Palestinian state on 40% of West Bank).

PA must avoid both. Once a deal is reached there is no turning back hence it has to be made and also be made on EQUAL TERMS.
