You want some Palestinian leader to say the same things in English as he does in Arabic. You'll wait forever. Let's pull a number out of the air. Let's say 50% of the Palestinian public wants to fight Israel until the Zionists pull out of what is now called Israel completely. How are you going to "sell" a long term peace with Israel unless it is first described in Arabic as a "truce", or words to that effect Then if they like it they may ultimately be reconciled to the transition from truce to peace. So maybe it isn't 50 %, maybe it's 70% or 35%. Anyway it's a significant part of the Palestinian population and a would be leader can't ignore their point of view. Let's remember that they may know relatives of Arabs who have been killed by Israeli(made in USA?) bullets. Whereas they are unlikely to know relatives of any Israeli who has been killed by Arabs. They automatically have an asymmetric view.
