About the author:

The leaders of Fatah, Islamic Jihad, and Hamas and their respective media outlets have been spewing violent rhetoric and publishing horrifying cartoons that celebrate the killing of women and children. In the Palestinian press, what began as the “children’s intifada” is now being hailed as the “car intifada.” Secretary of State John Kerry and the rest of the Obama administration would be well advised to take this blatant incitement into consideration. Khaled Abu Toameh writes:

The Obama administration would do well to understand that it is a waste of time to talk about any peace process when Palestinian leaders and activists are openly glorifying those who use their vehicles to kill Israelis. The Obama administration is talking about reviving the peace process while Abbas is telling his people that Jews are “desecrating” the holy sites in Jerusalem and praising an assassin as a “hero” and “martyr.” . . .

[I]t would also be a good idea for Obama and Kerry to go online and view the most recent Palestinian campaigns that encourage and applaud terror attacks on Israelis. Perhaps then they will understand that as long as the incitement continues, there is no chance—zero—for the success of any peace process between Israel and the Palestinians.
