While Abbas might be doing a good job (emphasis on the word might), it looks like his people remain hellbent on destroying the Jewish state. This, from the same publication as the article below:

IDF nabs Palestinian planning suicide attack on Jerusalem bus

Israel Defense Forces soldiers operating in Nablus on Thursday afternoon arrested a Palestinian man suspected of planning a suicide bus bombing attack in Jerusalem's French Hill section in the near future.

Maharan Omar Shucat Abu Hamis, 21, is from a Nablus-area refugee camp and has been affiliated with a number of militant Palestinian organizations including Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Tanzim and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine.

He was carrying a handgun and two fragmentation grenades when he was arrested by Israeli special forces, Israel Radio reported.

On Thursday morning in the same West Bank city, IDF soldiers arrested two Fatah militants. The militants led the troops to an armed explosive device they had planted nearby.
