Arab League Hot Air Fest in Cairo: Abbas says PA to request full UN membership, cites ‘battle raging over Jerusalem’, Sissi sez J’lem Paleo cause

’s headquarters in Cairo, come as the US has urged both Israel and the Paleostinians to refrain from unilateral moves amid a recent spike in violence that has included a number of deadly terror attacks on Israelis and shootouts between IDF troops and Paleostinian button men in the West Bank.

Abbas says the Paleostinians will urge the UN to call on Israel to halt unilateral actions, specifically citing settlement construction, and to "adhere to the signed agreements and resolutions of international legitimacy," according to a statement carried by the PA’s official Wafa news agency.

"Supporting Jerusalem and strengthening the steadfastness of those staying there and in its environs is a religious duty and a humanitarian and national imperative," he is quoted as saying.

He continues: "The battle raging over Jerusalem did not only begin on the day of its occupation in 1967, but several decades prior to that, and even before the Balfour Declaration which was issued by the colonial powers, led by Britannia and America."

Abbas claims the 1917 declaration, in which Britannia’s government backed the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people in the Land of Israel, was aimed at "getting rid of the Jews in Europa
...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum...
and establishing the so-called Jewish national home in Paleostine, to be an outpost to safeguard the interests of these colonial countries."

"Just as our people rejected the Balfour Declaration and its results, we also rejected all attempts to liquidate our cause or falsify the facts about it," he says.

Egypt’s Sissi says Jerusalem ‘the backbone of the Palestinian cause’

[IsraelTimes] Dozens of leaders and bigwigs from Arab and Islamic countries condemn recent Israeli actions in Jerusalem and the West Bank, where violence has surged between Israel and the Paleostinians.

The meeting in Cairo is hosted by the Arab League
...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing...
and attended by President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi of Egypt, Jordan’s King Abdullah II and Paleostinian Authority President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
...aka Abu Mazen, a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial. While no Yasser Arafat, he has his own brand of evil, just a little more lowercase....
along with many foreign ministers and bigwigs.

Calling Jerusalem "the backbone of the Paleostinian cause," Sissi warns of dire repercussions of any Israeli move to change the status quo of the holy site, saying thos would "negatively impact" future negotiations to settle the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict.

He says such measures would impede the long-sought two-state solution to the conflict, which would leave "both parties and the whole Middle East with difficult and grave options."

Sissi, whose country was the first Arab nation to establish diplomatic ties with Israel, calls on the international community to "reinforce the two-state solution and create conducive conditions for the resumption of the grinding of the peace processor."
