Well, they're off to a good start aren't they:
Abbas stressed that he would not make any concessions to Israel.“If they demand concessions on the rights of the refugees or the 1967 borders, I will quit. I can’t allow myself to make even one concession,” he said.
We also had Israel's foreign minister proclaiming that a peace deal was not possible "in a generation" let alone a year.
