AL-Aloul: the political process based on two states has failed.

Islam Times: Meeting with Fatah officials in Bethlehem, Al-Aloul said the Palestinian side had exerted all possible efforts to reach an agreement with Israel, but Israel's "racist policies" have eliminated the possibility of reaching an agreement.

US involvement will achieve nothing, he said, so Palestinians had no choice but to freeze the peace process. Western economic support has been used to hijack Palestinian action, so Arab states should fill the void.

In the other hand, the speaker of Fatah Ahmad Assaf said: Israeli violations against Palestinians and their land, and the racist laws passed by the Israeli government, would not weaken the resolve of Palestinians to achieve peace.

Further, Fatah's determination to establish an independent Palestinian state would not change, Assaf added.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's conditions for negotiations demonstrate his government's "political bankruptcy".
