New UN Member State: Palestine ?

This September, Palestine is set to apply for UN Membership. Its still not fixed, but 90% they will given that Israel continues to build settlements on occupied territories and peace talks have reached no-where.

If they don't President Abbas would be thrown out of his post through mass uprising given the amount of support the Palestinian people have given, to the UN vote and Abbas would probably lose world support. The world view would be "If the Palestinians don't really care about their own future, why would we?

The U.S however is pressuring the Palestinian Authority by threatening a veto and cutting funds to the U.N. These however are baseless threats and neither Israel nor the U.S can do anything to curb peaceful legitimate resistance.

As seen in the case of the Gaza flotilla. Israel is no doubt turning into an international pariah by making pathetic baseless arguments against an International convoy of ships trying to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.

So much focus on Palestine this time, Israel is unable to divert attention on Iran as usual

My dream, ever since I joined film-making has been to shoot a film in Palestine for my final year diploma. A Palestinian state getting a majority in the general assembly would be a wonderful birthday gift and hope this far-out cut off dream would come true next year.
