If I were prime minister, who would receive my first phone call? It would not be a difficult decision – Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas.  - Gershon Baskin

In his article, “Encountering Peace: The challenge of statesmanship”  one wonders why Gershon Baskin in his "Prime Ministership" will not ask Abbas to cease and desist from the consistent virulent message that Abbas conveys in the Arabic language.

Just look at the website of palwatch.org to discern the message what Abbas's media output conveys in the Arabic language, Palestinian Media Watch documents that Abbas's official media used term "alleged Temple" at least 97 times in 2011 and 2012 in its ongoing campaign to deny Jerusalem's Jewish history.

On August 29, the PA daily cartoon demonized Israel as a bloodthirsty Jew

The question remains - given Baskin's intense involvement with all levels of the Palestinian Authority, does Baskin not follow the PA media?
