"The apparent insistence of Israel on carving a state exclusively for the Jewish people on a land that has been inhabited by the Palestinians.

"The continued exercise by Israel of the policy that is based on the need to achieve absolute security for the Jewish state ... Absolute security for one country in a dispute of this nature means absolute insecurity for the other country.

"Widespread antisemitism in the west, and the ensuing holocaust perpetrated on the Jews, which justifiably generated great sympathy in the west and the rest of the world, resulted unfortunately in the state of Israel being given a license to use any policy it chooses even though it leads to perpetuating injustice on the Palestinian people while Israel continues to be perceived as a peace-loving state despite its warlike policies and practices. Furthermore, the Israeli-Palestinian problem became part and parcel of internal domestic issues in Europe and the United States, which aggravated the complication further and justified any action taken by Israel, no matter how illegal or outrageous. These perceptions replaced rational objectivity by emotional subjectivity."

"The security of Israel can best be served by the establishment of a viable Palestinian state living side-by-side with Israel, which would make the Palestinian state a responsible and accountable member of the world community."
