Why oh why do the Palestinians have such easily bought leaders?

Palestinians should not sign any agreements with Israeli govt. These agreements do not mean anything as is the case of prisoners release.

The two-state solution is a polite way of saying that Palestine will be a dependency of Israel

That is fine by me. An advanced economy side by side with a huge pool of cheap labor. That's going to be an interesting experience.
