Ya'alon: Palestinians Have Limited Options at UN

(Ynet News) Attila Somfalvi - Vice Premier and Minister for Strategic Affairs Moshe Ya'alon said on Monday in reference to the Palestinians' planned UN bid for statehood: "The Palestinians' options are very limited." "The Palestinians don't have the option of the UN Security Council. The most they can aspire to is the General Assembly, and even there - they have the U.S. warning them against the move and threatening to cut their financial aid." "Don't expect anything dramatic to happen in September. I hear Abbas speak against violence unequivocally. Yes, he's threatening mass demonstrations on September 20, but on the other hand, he's warning against clashing with Israeli forces. I don't think anything special is going to happen."
