That’s the Palestinian people. It remains to be seen if the leadership understands that their people have had enough and are demonstrating a new willingness to talk peace:

If this is to be made into something that could resemble a positive step, the PA should offer to work beside the Israeli military instead of against it, even going so far as to wage war against the Palestinian terror forces. It Abbas is to be seen as serious, he needs to begin punishing terror organizations immediately.

If he does that, he will find himself in what amounts to a civil war. I don’t see how he can avoid war and wage peace with Israel. Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, Hamas and the rest will not go away and must be dealt with violently.

It looks like this may be the moment where the Palestinian people have decided that their future lies with an Israeli-Palestinian peace rather than with a dead Arafat intifada.
