Institutionalized racism will continue.
So will constant fear, economic strangulation, collective punishment, mass arrests, torture, neighborhood incursions, Israel's expanding Separation Wall, curfews, roadblocks, checkpoints, barriers, by-pass roads, barbed wire, electric fences, isolation in bantustans, daily humiliation, and naked aggression whenever Israel chooses to wage it against defenseless civilians.
Nonetheless, expect Abbas to settle for what no responsible leader should tolerate any time.
His disgraceful record shows he'll again prove his collaborationist credentials, opting as well for more peace negotiations that never before worked and won't now.
Systemic wrongs will continue. Poverty, unemployment, and repression will remain extreme. Institutionalized denial will substitute for freedom later, not now or maybe never.
Palestinian winter will replace hoped for spring. Status quo subjugation will be enforced by a puppet figurehead, a disgraceful Israeli collaborationist.
It's time for Palestinians to decide their own fate - freedom or bondage under rogue leaders like Abbas, his number two Salam Fayyad, and their hangers-on for whatever privileges they enjoy at the expense of their own people.
