"The happy Family" Adjourn Unity Talks for Three Weeks


Fatah, Hamas Adjourn Unity Talks for Three Weeks
02/04/2009 Rival Palestinian factions Fatah and Hamas decided on Thursday to suspend Egyptian-mediated unity talks for three weeks, senior Fatah official Nabil Shaath said.

Shaath said the talks will resume between April 21 and 26. "There are new creative proposals and each movement needs to consult its leadership," he said.

Shaath refused to call the suspension of the talks a failure, saying "it was neither a failure nor a success."

Senior delegations from the Resistance group Hamas and the Western-backed Fatah movement of Palestinian Authority president Mahmud Abbas had met in Cairo on Wednesday to resume talks on agreeing a unity government.

The factions had agreed to form committees that would resolve their differences and form a unity transitional government that would prepare for general elections early next year.

The committees began their work in Cairo last month, but the talks were adjourned after they failed to agree on a new government.

Stay tuned Tony "will write a longer comment about all these "peace" and "reconciliation" moves breaking out all over, and what could be behind them.

The more things change, the more they stay the same: Hamas wants recognition and a place at the Table and the


Pharaoh will deliver a domesticated Hamas.
