since 2005, the pig has been controlled by a political party led by mahmoud abbas. he's the palestinian president, represents palestine on the international stage. this split between him off and the palestinian authority creates all sorts of problems and raises the question of who actually represents the palestinians. this is a really difficult question to answer. and the reason it's difficult to answer is because we have not had elections in more than 15 years to be a we're going to hold elections in may. but mahmoud abbas counsel them the last minute that it was because of israeli restrictions on campbells meaning and voting, unoccupied, east jerusalem. but some palestinians question if that the whole story i don't think that we should minimize what it means to have elections in jerusalem. that being said, i think that the elections were canceled because bass wasn't competent with the outcome as long as the palestinians politically divided between them off and graphically divided between the west bank and gaza strip city. no hope for any jewish negotiations. it's
