Palestinians Offered State Five Times The Size Of Palestine By Egyptian President, Abbas Rejects

Egyptian President General Abdel Fatah al-Sisi has reportedly offered Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas a Palestinian State, in Egypt’s Sinai, which would be five times bigger than anything Israel could offer them in negotiations.

The International Business Times reported today that even though he was offered 1,600 square kilometres of the Sinai Peninsula by al-Sisi, Abbas refused, proving that the Palestinian’s plight, which he represents, are more interested in replacing Israel rather than enjoying a warless state adjacent to their current borders.
As part of the offer to the Palestinian side Abbas would relinquish their demands that Israel return to the 1967 borders and would, of course, be totally demilitarised. Also as part of the deal Palestinian cities in Judea and Samaria would have been autonomous and continued to be under Palestinian Authority control.
In the meeting between al-Sisi and Abbas, the former is reported to have said to his counterpart, “You are now 80 years old, if you don’t accept this proposal, your successor will.”
