Abbas’ advisor: “Israel receives and complies with instructions from the US”
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Advisor on Religious Affairs and Islamic Relations Mahmoud Al-Habbash: "The Zionist lobby serves only American interests and acts according to the will of the American administration. If the American administration decides something, the Zionist lobby will adopt it. The so-called Zionist lobby within the US is merely a scarecrow that enables the US to evade pressures. But the truth is that the decision is made in the White House, and what the head of the White House wants is what happens. The Zionist lobby will undoubtedly respond to the will of the American administration and will itself exert pressure on Israel. More precisely, Israel does not need pressures; Israel only receives instructions from the US and complies."
