Palestinian President Abbas Urges UN to Intervene in Gaza Conflict
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has called on the international community to take action to stop the violence in the West Bank and Gaza. He has specifically requested that the international community stop sending weapons to Israel, stating that Washington continues to provide diplomatic cover and weapons to Israel despite the mounting death toll in Gaza. Abbas has also called for the suspension of Israel's membership in the United Nations General Assembly until Israel fulfills its obligations. He has emphasized the need to stop the "genocide" and "crime" being committed against Palestinian civilians, particularly children and women. Abbas has also highlighted the displacement of 2.4 million people in Gaza, who have been displaced at least once due to the war.
Abbas spoke for 26 minutes and did not say the word 'Hamas' once.
Only when he stands on the UN platform does he talk about a peaceful solution.
We will not leave, we will not leave, we will not leave. Palestine is our homeland. It is the land of our fathers, our grandfathers. It will remain ours, and if anyone were to leave, it would be the occupiers.
Palestine must assume its responsibilities in the Gaza Strip to exercise its full jurisdiction over it, including the border crossings, as part of a comprehensive plan.
The US alone stood and said, 'No, the fighting is going to continue,'
Stop this crime. Stop it now. Stop killing children and women. Stop the genocide. Stop sending weapons to Israel. This madness cannot continue. The entire world is responsible for what is happening to our people in Gaza and the West Bank.
We are not asking for more, but we will not accept any less.
We regret that the United States, the largest democracy in the world, obstructed three times draft resolutions of the Security Council demanding Israel to observe a ceasefire.
I call for suspending Israel's membership in the General Assembly until it fulfills its obligations and the conditions for accepting its membership and implements all the resolutions of the U.N. and its bodies.
This madness cannot continue. The entire world is responsible for what is happening to our people.
