"I am prepared to immediately resume direct peace negotiations with the Palestinian Authority without any preconditions whatsoever," Netanyahu said in a speech before the U.N. General Assembly on Thursday."Unfortunately, President Abbas said yesterday that he is not prepared to do this," he said Thursday. "Well, I hope he changes his mind, because I remain committed to a vision of two states, two peoples in which a demilitarized Palestinian state recognizes the Jewish state."
So again, a speech made before Netanyahu said this is taken as refusal by the Palestinians. Seems Netanyahu is as disingenuous as you are as his mouthpiece.
