(Washington Post) Jackson Diehl - On Nov. 15, 1988, Yasser Arafat unilaterally proclaimed "the establishment of the State of Palestine on our Palestinian territory with its capital Jerusalem." Shortly afterward the UN General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to support the declaration; within months 93 governments had recognized the state of Palestine. That state, of course, never came into existence. The PLO declaration, the UN vote, even the recognition by scores of countries, proved meaningless. Yet Arafat's successor as PLO leader, Mahmoud Abbas, appears to be giving serious consideration to repeating the maneuver. Palestinian and Arab leaders appear to be hoping that after the U.S. midterm elections the Obama administration will crack down on Netanyahu.2010-10-28 09:17:49Full Article
