They were released?! The Palestinian president wanted to talk about peace? Yet, he released the people who wanted to assassinate Ehud Olmert. We will not see the end of this violence and blood shed, just when I thought there would be some peace talks.

As with most modern politics, actions speak louder than words...

It's sad to see them resort to Israeli tactics.

They should allow him to say what he came to say and leave. Any further violence, especially on a PM would only mean more oppression and murder of Palestinians.
