Palestine - time to tell the truth

By David Singer - posted Thursday, 22 December 2011


Gingrich's statements are indeed the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. The PLO has seen its propaganda campaign succeed to a stage where "Palestine" has been admitted as a member "state" of UNESCO in apparent contravention of the UNESCO Constitution, the Montevideo Convention and customary international law.

The PLO's stated intention of liberating and replacing both Israel and Jordan in the United Nations as its192nd member still remains unrevoked in the PLO Charter.

Seventeen years of fruitless PLO negotiations with Israel have now been virtually abandoned - with the two-state solution envisaged by the Oslo Accords and advocated by President Bush in his Roadmap now in its death throes.

Gingrich's message to the PLO is clear - return to the negotiating table and hammer out a deal with Israel or face the consequences if this has not happened and Gingrich becomes America's next President.

The PLO cannot say it was not warned.
