Thus, US Secretary of State John Kerry will require great deal of creativity to reconcile Netanyahu’s position and the Palestinian precondition, recently reiterated by Abbas’s close associate Nabil Shaath, that Israel must agree to negotiate on the basis of the 1967 borders. Mahmoud Al-Habbash, the Palestinian minister of religious affairs, even went so far as to demand “assurances that the talks won’t fail,” because if they do, a new intifada would surely erupt.
因此，美国国务卿科里将要求拿出大量创造性调和内塔尼亚胡的立场和巴勒斯坦的先决条件——阿巴斯的亲信沙斯（Nabil Shaath）最近重申，以色列必须同意在1967年边界基础上的谈判。巴勒斯坦宗教事务部长哈巴什（Mahmoud Al-Habbash）甚至要求“保证谈判不会失败”，因为如若谈判失败，几乎肯定将导致新一轮动乱爆发。
