This is the stuff of history. From Maan news. Reader dont be a surprised virgin. Remember that years ago Aaron David Miller said that Ross acted as “Israel’s lawyer” at Camp David. Remember that Abe Foxman recently said that Ross was Israel’s “advocate.” And this man is making policy in the Obama White House. Why? The answer is, the power of the Israel lobby in our politics, which Chris Matthews can’t even address.
A political adviser to the late president Yasser Arafat issued a statement Tuesday, alleging that US Mideast peace envoy George Mitchell resigned because of the “extreme bias” of his deputy Dennis Ross.
Bassam Abu Shareef said Ross obstructed all US initiatives aiming to achieve progress in the peace process, and blamed the deputy’s bias for Mitchell’s resignation Saturday.
Abu Shareef said senior American officials informed him that Mitchell viewed the appointment of Ross a step to obstruct the peace process. He added that Mitchell believed Ross was working against US interests.
