Israel Update: Palestinian Chairman Arafat indicates that he may unilaterally declare statehood, October 27, 2000
|
|
Palestinian Authority Chairman Yasir Arafat has indicated he may
unilaterally declare statehood as early as November 15 in violation of the
Oslo Accords. It is urgent that you contact your Senator to send a strong
message that the unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state is
unacceptable! Time is running out for Congress to act on legislation
rejecting recognition of a unilaterally declared Palestinian State and
cutting of US non-humanitarian aid to such a state. Contact your Senators
and urge passage of the Middle East Peace Process
Support Act/S.2938 before the Senate adjourns. The House passed
the bill on September 27.
