The Palestinian Authority and Arab countries are seeking to achieve moral victory over Israel, by submitting before the UN General Assembly, a draft resolution, condemning Israel and demanding “protection” for the Palestinian people.
Miroslav Lajcak, president of the General Assembly, announced the holding of an emergency meeting on Wednesday, upon the request of Arab countries, to vote on a resolution similar to a one previously vetoed by the United States at the Security Council, deploring Israel’s killing of Palestinians in Gaza and calling for protection for the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation.
