Strong statement from Palestinian negotiator

The Palestinian Authority's chief negotiator has made some strong statements regarding Palestinian statehood. He recently said a Palestinian state with pre-1967 borders is coming and that there is nothing Israel can do to stop it.

This seems to me to be a very strong statement to make unless he has had some sort of behind the scenes assurances from some source that there will be strong international support for such a proposal.

Saeb Erekat, the negotiator, stated nothing was going on behind the scenes as far as negotiations with Israel go, but one has to wonder what else may be going on behind the scenes to give him the courage to make such a declaration.
