Reply #16: Not Geneva [View All]

[tinnypriv]

This conversation is about the Roadmap.

In any case, I'll answer: an overwhelming majority of the Palestinians have consistently expressed their view that the diplomatic component of their struggle is up to the PLO/PA, regardless of what they think about those institutions personally.

In that sense, there is some significant representation of the Palestinian national movement among the "signers" (check their history and see).

If you ask them, they'd tell you that Geneva is not intended to be a position for the Palestinians, or a treaty, but a framework for discussion. They've made many comments about the Palestinian government (or what is left of it) rewriting Geneva, discussing it with the Israelis Taba style, and then ratifying it.
