Nabil Sha'th: Palestinians Will Not Recognize Israel as the State of the Jewish People

(MEMRI) In interviews with the Arab Israeli weekly Kul Al-Arab and the Jerusalem-based daily Al-Quds, Nabil Sha'th, Fatah Central Committee member and international relations commissioner, said that the Palestinians would not accept a peace plan with two states for two peoples that included recognition of Israel as the state of the Jewish people. Rather, he said, they would only accept a definition of Israel as the state of the "Israeli people" - which would include Jews, Christians, and Muslims. Sha'th expressed support for initiatives for organizing a million unarmed Palestinians to mass along Israel's borders as part of the Palestinian popular struggle.
