> He simply turned his back on the commitment he made ahead of the talks to refrain from unilateral applications to UN bodies while they were in progress. As soon as the US Secretary flew off to Brussels, he sent out applications for the independent Palestinian state to join 12 UN agencies as members. This was after the Palestinian leader upped his price for meeting Kerrys request to extend peace diplomacy from April up until the end of the year. He demanded that Israel raise the number of 26 Palestinians due to be released from jail this weekend, to 1,000. They must also include Israeli Arabs.
Thanks Dave346.
You’re welcome. Full article is at the link (it’s long so I excerpted but that didn’t come up for some reason).
Funny that 450 more terrorists (on top of the 78 murderers released in recent months) in return for 1 Israeli spy (who has spent 29 years in jail and is close to death) isn’t enough for the Palestinians. But we’ve seen this song and dance before from them.
