29/04/2011 10: 47, Palestinian Authority, President Mahmoud Abbas may not be associated with terrorists, without being a partner with terror itself, Foreign Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman said in reaction to the agreement of the unity of the Fatah-Hamas Friday morning that he had met the President of Cyprus Dimitris Christofias.

"Abu Mazen [President of the Palestinian Authority Mahmoud Abbas] and the PA must understand that it is not possible to be a partner with terrorists without being a partner of terror," said Lieberman.

"The international community must not legitimize the Government whose face is the face of Abu Mazen and whose arms are arms of Hamas, which launches missiles at citizens and innocent stains with blood," Lieberman said Christofias.

Lieberman said that "the inability of the international community to make even a declarative decision at the [UN] Security Council condemning the Syria for the violence and the murder of innocent citizens by [President Bashar] Assad regime, raises the question in Israel of".: If and how the international community can be relied on for its balanced and honest considerations with regard to the situation between Israel and the Palestinians. ?

"This feeling is currently strengthened by the conciliatory approach of the Quartet decision, taken by some countries towards Hamas - a terrorist organization whose declared goal, main is the destruction of Israel," said Lieberman.

Lieberman went to Cyprus to discuss bilateral relations, the events in the Middle East and the unity of the Fatah-Hamas agreement and its effect on relations between Israelis and Palestinians.

Friday, President Shimon Peres stated that the unity of the Fatah-Hamas agreement States that the PA will control the West Bank and Hamas controls the Gaza Strip, in contradiction with the previous comments by Abbas that Palestinians will be governed by a single organization.

Peres said that if, for the PA elections, political platforms will include the destruction of Israel and continued subordination to the Iran, it is not relevant, what will be the results of the elections next year.

"Our goal is to maximize our ability to detect prevent them and deter terrorism and to minimize the likelihood that they will be successful," Napolitano said. "" " Even given that we must be very fair and say that there is no guarantee here.
