PLO preparing to go to UN 'regardless of ongoing peace talks'

Aren't you glad that Israel decided to release all those terrorist murderers? Aren't you glad that we're sitting at a conference table to keep Barack HUSSEIN Obama and John FN Kerry happy? Meanwhile, the 'Palestinians' are planning to go to the UN 'regardless of the ongoing peace talks.'

A political committee of 12 members representing the Palestine Liberation Organization's various factions convened in Ramallah and agreed on recommendations to take the Palestinian plight to the UN and its various bodies, a PLO official said on Saturday.

Hanna Amirah, a member of the Executive Committee of the PLO, told Ma'an on Saturday that the committee recommended addressing the United Nations regardless of whether the ongoing peace talks make any progress or not, although he added that a date had not been set.

The goal of these recommendations, he said, is to enhance the Palestinian position. However, Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas and the PLO Executive Committee need to approve them before they can be put into effect.

...

He asserted that the recent suggestions made by the US Secretary of State John Kerry were completely unacceptable to the Palestinians.

He highlighted that the proposals made related to Jerusalem, to Israeli settlements, and to Palestinian refugees were unacceptable in particular as well as the proposed Israeli military and civilian presence in the Jordan Valley.

...

It is of great importance, he added, that the PA joins the International Criminal Court because that will enable the PA to sue the Israeli occupation over war crimes and crimes against humanity.

What could go wrong?
