    Palestinian Authority President, Says He's No Longer Bound by Oslo Accords

    http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/01/wo...eech.html?_r=0

    Demonstrating a new level of tension with Israel, President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority declared Wednesday that it was no longer bound by the 1995 Oslo Accords that formed the basis for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

    In his annual General Assembly speech, Mr. Abbas accused Israel of having violated the accords and subsequent agreements, saying "we cannot be the only party" that remains faithful to them.

    Mr. Abbas delivered his speech against a backdrop of growing frustration among many Palestinians over the paralysis in peace negotiations with Israel, the most protracted conflict vexing the United Nations since its founding 70 years ago.

    It's been pretty clear for a long time that Mr. Netanyahu has no intention of agreeing to a two-state solution; it seems his goal is to slowly annex the West Bank.
