Bardaweel: PA’s September statehood bid a trap to liquidate Palestinian cause
[ 23/09/2011 - 11:57 AM ]
KHAN YOUNIS, (PIC)-- Dr. Salah al-Bardaweel, a leading Hamas figure and member of Hamas bloc at the Palestinian Legislative Council, rejected Abbas’s bid to get the UN to recognise a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders, as a unilateral move that concedes most of the area of historic Palestine.
Bardaweel said, at a seminar organised in Khan Younis on Thursday for PA security personnel, the so called “September state bid" is and Israeli and American requirement from the start, as it is a trap aimed at liquidating the Palestinian cause by giving up 78% of the area of historic Palestine, then negotiating endlessly on the rest of the land and off course giving up the right of return of refugees.
He added: “What is happening is a coup on the Palestinian national project," and constitutes a great danger to the Palestinian cause. He added that the step was much worse than that of Oslo and it targets the Palestinian people's right to self-determination. The step also targets the Palestinian refugees' right of return, who will be resettled in the diaspora when the "Palestinian state" recognizes “Israel” on 78% of Palestinian land, a step which will even put Palestinians in "Israel" at risk of expulsion.
Bardaweel said that Fatah leading figures told Hamas representatives during reconciliation talks that they do not go along with this step, but it was a mere political manoeuvre that will they will not go ahead with, but what we see is different from what we heard from them during meetings.
