So basically everything will remain the same !

BETHLEHEM, West Bank (Reuters) - Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's Fatah faction opened its first conference in 20 years on Tuesday, set to endorse a two-state solution but keep an option of "armed struggle" with Israel.
Officials said a draft of Fatah's new programme calls for new forms of resistance such as civil disobedience against Jewish settlement expansion and a West Bank barrier Israel says is for security but which Palestinians see as a land grab.
Crucially, the draft leaves open the option of "armed struggle" if peace talks with Israel fail and does not rule out a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood in the West Bank and Gaza Strip if peace negotiations remain stalemated.
Fatah's 400 delegates who live in the Gaza Strip were banned from traveling to the city of Bethlehem for the conference by the territory's Hamas rulers.
