Theodore Deutch actually said...

"President Abbas came to power on a platform of nonviolence. He pledged to seek a stable Palestinian state through direct negotiations with Israel."

"If officials within the Palestinian Authority never publicly acknowledge the benefits of the cooperation that is taking place between the Palestinian security forces and Israeli forces to calm the sit..."

"We spent all this money providing assistance that contributes to security for Israelis and Palestinians that keeps Hamas out."

"When President Abbas himself says, 'We welcome every drop of blood spilled in Jerusalem,' that sends a dangerous message that violence is the only way to preserve Muslim sites."
