 Top Palestinian negotiator, Ahmad Qurei, believed that ongoing Israeli transformation of occupied East Jerusalem casts doubts over the Palestinian-Israeli peace process. During a field visit to the old city of Jerusalem, Qurei warned of what he termed "Israeli schemes to take over Arab-owned real estate for the sake of constructing a synagogue around the Al-Aqsa mosque". He believed that such transformation of East Jerusalem on the ground would cast doubts over Israeli's intentions toward a comprehensive, just peace, and that a peace process accompanied by such Israeli actions would be illegitimate. The Palestinian official also pointed to Israel's isolation of the occupied Palestinian city of Jerusalem, saying that this move is intended to force the Palestinian inhabitants out of the holy city. He called on all concerned Arab and Islamic nations to take a firm stance toward what he described as a "systematic transformation" of the Arab city, by bidding all forms of support to Arab-Palestinian inhabitants so that they can remain on their lands, in accordance with international law. |
