Actually, it's a rather deft move on Sharon's part. This way, he can continue to maintain the status quo yet claim that he is trying for peace, by putting Abbas into an untenable situation.
Abbas cannot say "Yes'suh, massah Sharon suh!" because then the people that elected him will despise him. At the same time, Abbas must do what Sharon wants or Sharon is just going to blame Abbas for any future Israeli attacks on Palestinians.
