Palestinians see the accords that the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain signed with Israel in
Washington a week ago as a betrayal of their cause and a blow to their quest for an independent state in Israeli-occupied territory.
Earlier this month, the
Palestinians failed to persuade the Arab League to condemn member nations
BREAKING ranks and normalising ties with Israel.
