THE LEFT OF CENTER NEW YORK Times, normally pandering to the leftist on the national and international “news” had an out of character editorial suggesting that Mr. Abbas’s vile speech was a new low. No doubt he feels embittered and besieged on all sides. But by succumbing to such dark, corrosive instincts he showed that it is time for him to leave office.
Abu Mazen1 is the consummate anti-Semite: he denies the holocaust in one breath and blames it on the victims in another.

Apparently the Times has a belief that what it published will be accepted by ”The World” as the final word on whatever subjects its editors pontificate.
If the Times tells Abu Mazen it is time to go, its editors must be confident he will start packing his bags preparatory to surrendering the title he’s clung to for more than 10 years; he took office as president in January of 2005.
The publication notes that But pressures, some of his own making and many others caused by Israel, which has ultimate control over the West Bank, are building. Mr. Abbas, who oversees a governing system plagued by corruption and dysfunction, has lost support among the Palestinian people.
”some of his own making” vs. “many others caused by Israel” Naturally.
The Times mentioned the Oslo Accords signed by Yasir Arafat and Yitzhak Rabin; however, it failed to mention the number of times the PA has violated the accord. That might have caused the publication’s leftist subscribers to drop their subscriptions to the Times for subscriptions to the Washington Post, also loved by the liberals.
