Saturday is the holy day for all Jews in world. This is a well known part of the Jewish customs. During Saturday they exchange greetings, saying “Shabbat Shalom” or “Peace Saturday”.

In "Behind the Headlines: Israel continues prisoner release policy" we see the [...]

Hamas and the Palestinian Authority (PA) have been trading harsh accusations as to who bears responsibility for the open-ended postponement of Egyptian-sponsored national reconciliation talks that were due to take place in Cairo earlier this week.
Citing Hamas's decision to boycott the much-heralded talks, PA and Fatah leaders and spokespersons denounced the Islamic movement for being [...]

Barring last-minute glitches, Palestinian political factions will meet in Cairo Saturday in a last ditch-effort to end the two-year rift between the Islamic group Hamas and the American-backed and financed Fatah organization. (It has been announced that the talks will be postponed indefinitely).
 
The Egyptian-mediated reconciliation talks are being closely monitored by the Palestinian masses whose [...]
