Is Abbas Now in Favor of "Settlements"?

I can't figure this out.

Is a campaign against his presidency more important (read: dangerous) than Jews in so-called "settlements"?

What type of "Palestinian patriot" is he?

Item:

Palestinian security forces have arrested one of the most prominent human rights activists in the occupied territories after he criticised the arrest of a Palestinian journalist in a Facebook post.
Issa Amro, who lives in the southern West Bank city of Hebron, is the highest profile victim of a growing campaign by Mahmoud Abbas, the leader of the Palestinian Authority, against journalists and dissent on social media.
Amro is the founder of Youth Against the Settlements, which has long-documented alleged abuses by the Israeli military and settlers in Hebron. He was already facing charges in an Israeli military court for his activism.
