When Abbas gives speeches in English, he sounds like a moderate. But when he gives speeches in Arabic, he calls for the destruction of Israel.

that would be surprising since the palestinian authority has recognized israel as a state with a right to peaceful existence for almost 20 years and plenty of israeli's speak arabic.

do you have a credible source for this incredible claim?

Do a search for "Abbas calls for the destruction of Israel". By the way, Abbas' Fatah party still calls for the destruction of Israel in their charter.

"Indeed, the very day after his Israel television interview, Abbas told an Arab news station that he had not abandoned what he calls the "Palestinian right of return," indicating that his end goal remains the destruction of Israel as the Jewish state."

And Hamas still openly calls for the destruction of Israel. Many Palestinians still support Hamas. What percentage of the Palestinian population supports the destruction of Israel? It has to be 80-90%.

All Abbas is doing is carrying on the same strategies that Arafat used. Here is a quote from Arafat:
"Since we cannot defeat Israel in war we do this in stages. We take any and every territory that we can of Palestine, and establish sovereignty there, and we use it as a springboard to take more. When the time comes, we can get the Arab nations to join us for the final blow against Israel." (Yasser Arafat speaking on Jordanian television, September 13, 1993)

ok, i read that article. but it doesn't say just how abbas indicated that. what is that statement based on? i don't see any quotes that say that, or what they point to in order to make that assumption.

and an arafat quote isn't an abbas quote, and arafat is dead. and like i said above, i figure you're confusing abbas with hamas.
