RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) The Palestinian president has ordered his government to officially change the name of the Palestinian Authority to "State of Palestine." Palestinians change their name following UN bid - Yahoo! News The move follows the November decision by the United Nations to upgrade the Palestinians' status to that of a "non-member observer state." President Mahmoud Abbas said Sunday that all official Palestinian stamps, stationery and documents will now bear the new name. A statement from his office said the move was aimed at enhancing Palestinian "sovereignty on the ground" and was a step on the way to "real independence." Israel still controls most of the West Bank. Israel objected to the Palestinian statehood bid at the U.N., calling it a unilateral step aimed at bypassing direct peace negotiations. Abbas denied that. Israel had no comment Sunday. .
There is no sovereign state of Palestine. There never has been and there never will be. So call it whatever you want. By any name it still does not exist. - Jeremiah
To share with you. But I will share the truth with you. There never has been and there never will be a sovereign State of Palestine. Not now and not ever. -Jeremiah p.s. smoking is bad for your health. You might want to give that up.
I like the "pali" approach------WHAT A DIFFERENCE A NAME MAKES I am going to change my name to RITA HAYWORTH------then I will be able to sing and dance and I will be an IRRESISTABLE SEX POT or maybe I will try ELIZABETH TAYLOR----I thought her not only beautiful -- but an excellent and intelligent actress----I WANNA BE LIZ ...... can we put that to a vote?
I like it! He should further articulate; " State of Palestine" without return to the 67 Borders that the Arabs thermselves have never accepted and without " Right of Return"
Do you want to give someone third degree burns? Rita and Liz didn't have such a great ending anyhow. Your life is a far better story, Rosie. You are far more interesting and intriguing than either of them. A smart woman is the ultimate sexy and you've got it going on. Liz has nothing on you. - Jeremiah
