Abbas sends flowers to Kim Jong Un

From North Korean news agency Rodong:

Supreme leader Kim Jong Un received a floral basket from Mahmoud Abbas, president of the State of Palestine, on the occasion of the 69th anniversary of Korea's liberation.

The floral basket was handed over to an official concerned on Aug.13 by Ismail Ahmed Mohamed Hasan, Palestinian ambassador to the DPRK.

This is confirmed by the official Palestinian Arab news agency Wafa, which said that Abbas sent this message:

The ties of friendship that bind our two countries will continue to be of mutual interest, for the good of our peoples and our countries, valuing your country's unwavering support of our people and their struggle, in order to gain their freedom and self-determination and establish their independent state with its capital in East Jerusalem, which will be an oasis of security, peace and coexistence.

Kim wasn't the only bloodthirsty dictator receiving love from that much-vaunted man of peace.

In June, Mahmoud Abbas sent a hand-written letter to Syrian president Bashar Assad, congratulating him on his victory in the "elections" and wishing him luck in confronting terrorists.

Well over 2000 Palestinians have been killed in Syria so far, yet Abbas' letter did not receive any negative coverage in the Arab press as far as I could tell.
