US Objections at the Security Council Encourage Israel to Continue Its Aggression
Ramallah, MINA – Spokesman for Palestinian Presidency, Nabil Abu Rudeineh said on Saturday that the American objections at the United Nations Security Council constitute a cover for Israel to continue its aggression against the Palestinian people and encourages it to defy UN resolutions aimed at ending its occupation.
These objections, obstructed condemnation of Israeli murder of 15 Palestinians and injury of hundreds others in Gaza on Friday, Palestinian News and Info Agency (WAFA), quoted Abu Rudeineh saying in a statement.
“The continuation of the US administration’s current approach in protecting the occupation and blocking all international attempts to pressure the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to stop its aggression and brutality, will only increase the steadfastness of our people and their resolve to fight all conspiracies targeting their existence and their land and to prove that the Palestinian cause is alive and will not die and cannot be bypassed or liquidated,” Abu Rudeineh said.
He added that, “the message of the Palestinian people yesterday was clear, that the Palestinian land belongs for its legitimate owners and that the occupation, no matter how long it takes, will vanish, and the settlements, regardless of their expansion, will be extricated by the sacrifices of our people and the steadfastness of their leadership.”
Abu Rudeineh stressed that “our people will not bow down to the difficult and complex situation that some are trying to impose on us as they face a historic challenge to defeat attempts to falsify and distort history, which the occupation and its supporters imagine they are undertaking to change the character of our land and existence through its internationally rejected settlement plans.”
“The official and popular Palestinian movement will continue until we achieve our legitimate rights to expose the policy of occupation and aggression, both in the Security Council or at the UN General Assembly to seek international protection for our unarmed people, and in other regional and international forums such as the Non-Aligned Movement or the coming Arab summit,” he said.
“We will reassert the Palestinian position which adheres to the constants and to Jerusalem and its holy places and rejects all attempts to liquidate our cause and the suspicious projects that some are trying to promote,” Abu Rudeineh added.
“Yesterday, the Palestinian people renewed their commitment to what they have achieved during the long period of their heroic struggle, especially their unity and political representation through their legitimate and sole representative, the Palestine Liberation Organization, and to bring down all conspiracies aimed at our national project, which thousands of our sons have sacrificed for with their blood and life.” he added.
