Are you talking to me roachboy? Maybe I am a chump, but I think it's more likely you're misunderstanding what happened here.
This meeting occurred 2 years ago. Abbas made his comment immediately afterward. Now, 2 years later, another minister who was at the meeting made similar comments while filming an interview for a BBC documentary.
The story was mainly floating in the European newspapers, but was then asked during a White House Press Briefing where it was denied.
Then, a few days later, Abbas issues a denial, presumably to protect the White House from embarassment.
The story never really made it very far into the major news outlets.
So what you're saying is that 2 years ago, Rove hatched a plan with the Palestinians to help the President. It didn't gain any steam when they first tried it with Abbas and Ha'aretz, so they tried it again 2 years later by having another minister and the BBC. This time, it got a bit of play in Europe and the liberal blogosphere, but not anywhere else.
If that's what you're alleging, either Rove is an incompetent idiot or you're dead wrong.
