UN: Adopt Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine or see conflict worsen

By David Singer - posted Thursday, 29 February 2024


The duplicity of the UN in sending the ICJ on this fool's errand is unbelievable. It evidences the extreme hatred borne by UN member States to Israel – 1 Jewish State among 57 Islamic States trying to create a 58th.

Whilst the UN plays these games – Gaza implodes, and its citizens continue to suffer - as the UN keeps Gaza's civilians penned in Gaza - becoming human shields preventing Israel expeditiously neutralising those Gazans responsible for the atrocities committed on 7 October 2023.

Guterres and Tor Wennesland – UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process and Personal Representative to the Palestine Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority – both have refused for the last 20 months to bring the 2022 Hashemite Kingdom of Palestine solution (HKOPS) to the UN for consideration to end the 100 years-old Arab-Jewish conflict.

The consequences of their inaction have been devastating.

The United Nations now has a clear choice:

  • Replace the failed 2016 two-state solution proposed in Security Council Resolution 2334 with the solution proposed by HKOPS – which unlike Resolution 2334 - calls for part of the West Bank to become part of Israel with the remainder to be merged with Jordan into one territorial entity

  • See the current conflict continue to worsen beyond Gaza

The UN fish will continue to stink from head to tail until Guterres and Wennesland are replaced.
