RAMALLAH - Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said on Friday he would demand full membership of the United Nations when he goes the UN General Assembly next week, setting up a diplomatic clash with Israel and the United States.

"We are going to the United Nations to request our legitimate right, obtaining full membership for Palestine in this organization," Abbas said...

Dude - you had a country until you tried to assissinate your leader and he drove you out, while killing 70,000 of you.

What a dilemma for zer0. He needs to somehow help Abbas at the UN while appearing to be thwarting him to the American public. Kind of like destroying the US economy while appearing to be helping it to the American public. Both take a special talent to do one thing while talking your way as if you’re doing the opposite.

They will probably get it. White House is only upset about timing of this I bet.

Go for it, bloody Palis.

The next President will cut off all aid from the US and UN to you butchers.

When, as a sovereign state you attack Israel, expect to be annihilated.

Once you get going down a path and you are being followed close behind by a huge mob of desperate, angry and ignorant people who have spent their whole childhood and lives training to kill Jews it's hard to stop and turn around.

The cynical leaders in the Middle East are fanning the flames of hatred and incitement to violence similar to Nasser in 1967. The momentum towards violence in the Middle East is growing and soon events may start spinning out of the control of the leaders who are inciting the violence.

Very scary because we are talking about Egypt, Syria, Iran, Turkey, Iranian surrogates in Lebanon and Hamas and PLO all playing brinkmanship at the same time.

I live in New York city and right now we are experiencing a MAJOR traffic problem due to our wonderful Mayor Bloomberg putting a lawyer in charge of transportation who thinks it’s funny to to turn every street into a bicycle lane and/or civilian mall. Today for example it took me an hour and a half to GET OUT of Manhattan at 1030 AM. It is the WORST traffic I have ever experienced in my life living here and I’ve been living here for 50 years!

Next week we are having the Useless Nations General assembly and to tell you the truth I can’t WAIT because with-out-a-doubt all traffic will come to a standstill. Cars will be abandoned, in essence it will be impossible to drive in or out, and what does that mean? These UN fools will be prevented from getting anywhere near the UN unless they land helicopters near the UN which is not going to happen. There is nowhere to land! Bloomberg is going to get his transportation green dream shoved right up his ARSE. They want to bring Amadinnerjacket to Columbia university? Fine, but HOW are they? By boat? Even if, they still have to DRIVE him which will be impossible.

Interesting, I am all for it. The next time they bomb Israel, Israel should obliterate the rouge state next door, then when every one is dead, annex it back, free and clear.

That is how it works in the real world.

American Jews voted for and funded Obama.

American Jews are a greater threat to Israel than Hamas, PLO and Obama , combined.

Can someone link to a coherent synopsis of why Abbas would want a state/country instead of just keeping on sucking on the world teet like they have been? A state, as he wants, would have an imediate civil war (with Fatah) and be responsible for every rocket fired on Israel who could then declare war, no?

I have an inkling he he does not want a state, he's just using the stage for his latest act, and what is the big surprise Israel has for them that was mentioned??

Hey Mahmoud, watcha gonna do about that naval blockade? Naval blockades are an act of war.

The UN is never going to make any territory a country born under a state of war. To do so, the UN would have to declare war on the belligerent, in this case Israel.

Never going to happen until Israel decides to end the blockade, just that simple.

Never waste a crisis.

No problem for Omullah:

“Congress: pass this jobs bill, I veto the PA. No jobs bill, PA in UN.”

The one thing I don't get about this issue.

What benefit exactly do they expect to get out of UN membership?
