PLO always rejected all peace agreements that left Israel intact. Israel should absolutely reject the idea of a second Arab state west of the Jordan. In July 1970, Egypt and Jordan accepted U.S. secretary of state William Rogers’ plan for Israel’s withdrawal from the west Bank and Gaza in exchange for peace and recognition. But instead of embracing the plan and taking control of the West Bank and Gaza, Arafat denounced the Rogers proposal, reiterating his determination to reject any peace agreement. The liberated Palestine he sought would stretch from the Jordan river to the sea, with no Israel. All peace agreements that left Israel intact were in his view betrayals of the Palestinian cause as described at : http://xrl.us/bi3id
