Palestinians certain to win UN recognition

[Dr. A ♥ O 203]

I can't help but see the irony in Arafat's body being exhumed and risen from the grave in the same week as the UN General Assembly recognizes Palestine as a non-member State. Thus putting it on the same level of recognition as the Vatican, which is technically a sovereign entity.

Then please explain why else no other country in the world recognizes Jerusalem as the capital of Israel ?

Canada has a similar demographic problem, but they stood with Israel anyway.

The French are just cowards.

Canada has 2.8% Muslims, France - 7.5%. It's a bigger problem in France.

[mawilson 2,133]

Wow I didn't know they had so many.

I looked it up and it's 4,704,000 Muslims in France.

My number is from the BBC: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/4385768.stm

I say good for the Palestinians. But now follow this step up along the way to full Nationhood status by working to improve the lives of Palestinians.

Gotta say one point for the Palestinians today! Congratulations!

Well said. Time to take advantage of the momentum gained by the vote and get on with it! Congrats!

A day after Palestine's UN upgrade

In response to UN vote, Israel to build 3,000 new homes in settlements

Netanyahu orders thousands of new housing units in East Jerusalem and the West Bank; controversial plans for new construction in the E1 area near Jerusalem will be advanced, contrary to commitments made to the Obama administration.

Israel plans to build some 3,000 new housing units in East Jerusalem and West Bank settlements in response to the Palestinians' successful bid for recognition at the UN General Assembly this week, a senior diplomatic source told Haaretz on Friday.

According to the source, Israel also plans to advance long-frozen plans for the E1 area, which covers an area that links the city of Jerusalem with the settlement of Ma'aleh Adumim.

If built, the controversial plan would prevent territorial contiguity between the northern and southern West Bank, making it difficult for a future Palestinian state to function.

In the beginning of his term, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave the Obama administration a commitment that Israel would not build in the area. Both of his predecessors, Ariel Sharon and Ehud Olmert, also promised the U.S. administration that Israel would not build in E1.

The source said Israel would advance building plans for another several thousand housing units in settlement blocs in the West Bank and in East Jerusalem, while weighing additional measures.

He added that the construction would be carried out according to the map of Israel's strategic interests.

There is no Palestine to hate. There are two small enclaves of Arabs left in Israel and they get smaller by the week. The only "moving on" will be the moving on of Israel as it moves closer to replacing Tel Aviv with Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

As far as Belarus voting for anything, Belarus is a European backwater Commie run dictatorship that amounts to zero in the scheme of things. Kind of like the UN.

Lost? If you had a clue about the UN you wouldn't be wasting your time posting that. The UN is a joke. In fact the UN made a draft a few weeks ago supported by the majority of the UN members including China and Russia (two great human rights countries) in regards to the Israel - Hamas bruh hah that just ended. The US vetoed it for the fact the UN left out any mention of Hamas rocket attacks. You wouldn't know that though unless you actually read up on it.
