Diskin to Abbas: Defer UN vote on Goldstone or face 'second Gaza&#

[naomiglover]

The request by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to the United Nations Human Rights Council last year to postpone the vote on the Goldstone report followed a particularly tense meeting with the head of the Shin Bet security service, Haaretz has learned. At the October meeting in Ramallah, Shin Bet chief Yuval Diskin told Abbas that if he did not ask for a deferral of the vote on the critical report on last year's military operation, Israel would turn the West Bank into a "second Gaza."

I wonder how true this is. I'm sure Abbas was pressured, but to this extent?

If this is true, the Israeli government is proving that it's nothing more than a mafia government.
