| (KUNA) -- A Paleostinian official called on Wednesday for addressing the United Nations, aka the Oyster Bay Chowder and Marching Society Security Council to seek "decisive resolutions" against Israel's settlement policies in the West Bank and Jerusalem. Yasser Abed Rabbo, the secretary of the executive committee of the Paleostine Liberation Organization (PLO), said in remarks to Paleostine Radio, "Peace in the eyes of Israel does not mean the end of the occupation and the establishment of a (Paleostinian) state. "Currently, the stalemate cannot be broken with mere rhetoric, and there must be practical steps and there must be reference to the Security Council to take resolutions compelling for Israel," he said. "This is the available option now to stop the arrogant Israeli practices against the Paleostinian people," he added. Israel has revealed plans to build 2,100 new settlements and the Israeli television declared that 66 Israeli families have recently settled in East Jerusalem. Abed Rabbo denied reports that the US would inform the Paleostinian leadership about a conciliation formula for resuming the negotiations soon. Washington had asked to be given a month to find such a formula for ceasing the construction of settlements, and the Arab follow-up committee agreed to the request. |
