Because Abbas is not a moderate.
Abbas's own Palestinian television serves to teach their own children to hate Jews and to murder them. It is a most effective tool in raising another generation of Arabs who will do what they can to destroy Israel and push the Jews into the sea.
Yes, they poison their children's minds at an early age.
The latest TV character created to incite Palestinian Authority children to anti-Semitism, Islamic triumphalism and violence has debuted on a popular show produced by Hamas. The character is a cute rabbit who aspires to finish off the Jews and eat them.
The rabbit's name is Assoud, which translates as "lions," and he has come from Lebanon "in order to return to the homeland and liberate it," according to the Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) organization, which translated the dialogue.
In a PA children's program called Tomorrow's Pioneers, a young girl hostess asks the new character, "Why is your name Assoud, since you are a rabbit?"
Assoud replies: "A rabbit is a [term] for a bad person and coward. And I, Assoud, will finish off the Jews and eat them."
"Allah Willing!" the girl exclaims.
Later in the show, children are taught that the Jewish city of Tel Aviv is actually Arab and that it must be "liberated" by way of Hamas-style terrorism.
Assoud asks the child hostess of the program, "Do you know the original name of our city... Tel Aviv?"
"It's our city: Tel-Rabia," she replies, "but the Zionists today call it Tel Aviv, but i t will stay ours.... And we will return with Allah's will."
Assoud: "How will we go to our city if the Jews took it?"
"We will continue the resistance [a PA term for terrorism]," she answers.
The program ends with singing: "We will never recognize Israel...." with the hostess emphasizing the call to "liberate our homeland from the Zionist filth."
The show, Tomorrow’s Pioneers, first became known for its genocidal Mickey Mouse look-alike character, Farfur. The show's producers had Farfur murdered by Israelis and replaced by Nahoul the bee, who was killed off in an episode in which Israel would not allow him to leave Gaza for medical treatment.
How cruel of these Palestinians to defer any hope of peace by poisoning their children's minds at an early age!

How cynical of the Arabs to use children to ensure that there will be no peace.

Israeli PM is not as moderate as Abbas that is why. Israeli should elect a PM moderate as Abbas to negotiate the final peace with native Palestinians. Olmart is right-winger he is never a moderate by all means.
Abbas has no power for one. Also, the Palestinians are not interested (currently) in creating two separate countries, one in the West Bank and the other in Gaza. They want one unified country, which is currently impossible due to the non-consensus with regards government. Olmert and Abbas are negotiating, but nothing positive has come from it yet.
Israeli Jews don't want peace, plain and simple. They always have an excuse for every thing ONLY to buy time to consolidate their grip on west bank and have Jewish majority at the end.
Abbas is Arafat in a Western suit.
As he recently said that the idea of taking up arms against Israel is not out of the question, I would neither call him moderate or friend.
Just a cheap copy of his mentor.
because zionists don't want to negotiate with any one!!!
abbas is just a baby doll to show the world that the zionist want peace!! in fact they don't.
Olmert has being doing that - the most public of these negotiations in recently was the Annapolis Conference (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annapolis_C... ). Israeli is constantly looking for Palestinians wanting to negotiate.
Good Luck!!!
they are talking. he's not really a moderate though. i guess relative to hamas which wants to see israel destroyed he might be moderate, but fatah was a terrorist group too. anyway, they ARE talking, but israel wants to make a peace deal with ALL palestinians, not just the west bank ones, and with hamas in charge of gaza, that's not happening right now. heck, even fatah and hamas can't get along; members torture and kill each other all the time.
bc a. the west bank is not only part of israel, its a strategic defense area
b. if we did that it would turn into another gaza and rockets would be launched daily
