Statement by the League of Arab States at the "special meeting in observance of the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People"

On November 29, 2016, the United Nations held its annual "Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People" (and demonization of Israel). At a special meeting of the UN Committee on the Exercise of the Inalienable Rights of the Palestinian People, the representative of the League of Arab States said the following:

"[T]his day represents a painful memory for the Palestinian people; a plight that has been lived by the Palestinian people since the 25th of November, 1947, when the General Assembly adopted Resolution 181 that partitioned the Palestinian land – this land where the Palestinian people have lived since the dawn of history until this land was occupied by the Israelis. Since then the lives of the Palestinian has turned into a daily suffering as a result of this occupation that has, since the Nakba in 1948, has been committing a fully fledged ethnic cleansing crime against the indigenous Palestinian people."
