We Are Pushing Towards The Dream Of

We Don't Have A State, Neither In Gaza Nor In The West Bank. Gaza Is Under Siege And The West Bank Is Occupied. What We Have In The Gaza Strip Is Not A State, But Rather A Regime Of An Elected Government. A Palestinian State Will Not Be Created At This Time Except In The Territories Of 1967.

We Are Pushing Towards The Dream Of Having Our Independent State With Jerusalem As Its Capital. If There Is A Real Project That Aims To Resolve The Palestinian Cause On Establishing A Palestinian State On 1967 Borders, Under Full Palestinian Sovereignty, We Will Support It.

I Hope That Americans Will Give Careful And Well-informed Thought To Root Causes And Historical Realities, In Which Case I Think They Will Question Why A Supposedly 'legitimate' State Such As Israel Has Had To Conduct Decades Of War Against A Subject Refugee Population Without Ever Achieving Its Goals.

I Salute All The Nations Of The Arab Spring And I Salute The Heroic People Of Syria Who Are Striving For Freedom, Democracy And Reform.

I Ask The American Administration Not To Participate In Any Resolution That Will Double The Suffering Of The Palestinian People. I Am Convinced That The American People Would Not Want To See The Palestinians Suffer The Way They Do.
