1. The Palestinians need to ditch the PA now!!!
Cynic #2   (10.03.09)
"Khuri, a political independent, was a new face in the government ..." Yes, this is what the Palestinians need, independent people with balls like Mr. Khuri, not VIP stooges and parasites like those of the PA who are willing to sacrifice all for the sake of a frequency band for a bloody cellular mobile operation.
2. Abbas is a puppet and sell-out
Fares ,   Jordan   (10.03.09)
Abbas is nothing but a puppet who sold out the people of Gaza for the sake of his masters Obama and Netanyahu.
3. Why resign? Already made enough to retire comfortably?
Genuine Tosefta ,   Tveria   (10.04.09)
it took him a few months only! what luck he had, to be put in charge of the $billions coming from stupid Europeans and Americans. His brothers in F. Arbia, Kuwait, Gutter, UAE know better what will happen to the money, so they promised a lot but did not deliver a single dime. poor man, now must be going first to Lichtenstein to withdraw euros for a well deserved vacation to start enjoying his new found wealth
4. Lookk, if the PA agree w/Goldstone,they have to admit to the
world they are a ,   terrorist group.   (10.04.09)
5.  Palestinian Patriotism is Alive and Kicking
Nour ,   Palestine   (10.04.09)
This is a refutal of the myth that Palestinians have a deep-seated desire to impose Islam on others. This man Khoury is a man of conscience and is expressing his shock and disgust at those who put money and business ahead of human rights. Palestine needs more men, real men, like Khoury. A Christian brother with a strong sense of patriotism and love for his country.
6. #5 Sure did a lot for Palestinian economy
Cynthia ,   USA   (10.04.09)
Another mumbler bites the dust. He refused to continue talks with Israel over economic cooperation. This could have helped the Palestinians. Seems he was more concerned about his image and bowed to pressure.
7. An Honorable Exit
Palestinian ,   Ramallah   (10.04.09)
This wise man is a true representative of his people, and took am honorable step. By agreeing not to discuss Goldstone report will, the PA encourages Israel to commit future massacres. This will will hurt the Palestinians and Israel. I seriously suggest moving PA headquarters to the USA.
