CHALLAH @ Maan News
The village of Nabi Saleh near Ramallah held a mock funeral for the Oslo Accords as part of its weekly demonstration on Friday, a Ma'an correspondent said.
Demonstrations began after Friday prayers as protesters chanted slogans against the Israeli occupation and a likely US veto of the UN bid.
Participants waved flags with the logo of "The state of Palestine 194" as they marched through the village carrying a black coffin with the words "Oslo Accords" written on it. The protesters were met by Israeli forces who fired tear gas and sound grenades at the rally.
The activities were organized as part of the upcoming anniversary of the signing of the Oslo Accords on Sept. 13 1993, a statement from the popular resistance movement said.
Comment: For all purposes real, most people today do not even know what these accords laid out nor do they know what happened to their implementation. Strange, both Israel and the leaders of the PA signed an agreement, supposedly a legally binding agreement that over a period of time actually gave control of the territories to the PA or governing body of the Arabs. Currently, meaning today, almost all of the territory that is disputed territory according to international law, is effectively under the control of the Palestinians.In addition, hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars have poured into the area and it has been squandered. The infra-structure necessary to be built has not been, monies instead went into pockets of folks rather than into services their flks needed. Still, cities like Ramallah, when more appropriately planned, have begun to flourish and serve as a model for what could be. Rather than pay salaries of convicted murderers in jails, fund state wide tv, radio and publishing houses that teach terror and hatred, rather than waste monies and continuously playing the victim game, the international community is part of the problem as it reinforces such behavior and does not hold them accountable for their own actions. The PA's and people have been given and done so little-this is why they are burying the deal of a century? Oh, MSM, you failed to present the full truth here, nothing new on your part-lack of journalistic integrity is your watch word!
