Israel: PA Violated International Treaties It Applied to Join
(Jerusalem Post) Michael Wilner - Israel's envoy to the UN Ron Prosor accused the Palestinian Authority on Sunday of violating the protocols of the international organizations and conventions which it has applied to join. "Had the Palestinians bothered to read the applications to the various conventions they seek to join, they would understand that they are in blatant violation of the majority of their articles," Prosor said. "They tend to forget the surprising concept that joining international treaties also includes obligations." For example, "I remind Abbas that when he sends journalists to jail, he actually violates the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights."
