Security Council must adopt Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine

By David Singer - posted Monday, 11 September 2023


  • Israel sovereignty in an agreed area of Judea and Samaria (West Bank) for the first time in 3000 years – ending the United Nations false claim that Jews have no legal right to live in Judea and Samaria (West Bank) – specifically authorised under articles 6 and 25 of the Mandate for Palestine and preserved by article 80 of the UN Charter.
  • An " end of the occupation" and citizenship for current and future Arab residents of Judea and Samaria (West Bank) and Gaza in the newly-created Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine
  • Jerusalem becoming the sole capital of Israel with Arab control of the Islamic Holy sites continuing to be maintained.

HKOPS unravels decades of UN attempts to treat Arabs living West of the Jordan River as being different to Arabs living East of the Jordan River:

Jordanians and Palestinians are as similar as any people can be. They are Sunni Arabs from the same neighborhood. Merging them will not create any long-term ethnic or sectarian fault lines.

Adoption by the Security Council of a policy calling for negotiations to implement HKOPS will certainly involve the Security Council in a major change of direction.

Can the Security Council afford to remain silent and just wring its hands at the rapidly-increasing violence happening before its very eyes as it sits in its ivory tower in New York?
