Press Release
The Palestinian Authority, PLO and the Arab Rulers have Squandered Palestine And their Plans Abandoned - Do Not Reclaim Rights, Nor Repel Aggression - But Entrench the Occupation
(Translated)

Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority, has threatened to take important steps starting tonight in response to the Security Council's rejection for the Palestinian draft resolution "to end the occupation." Abu Mazen said in a speech tonight before his followers in the district headquarters on the occasion of the launch of the Fatah movement, "Rights are not given; they are extracted, we have something to do about this as of tonight".

The United Nations has failed the Palestinian Authority and the Arab rulers by refusing the resolution, which they submitted to it, despite the fact that the resolution installs the occupying entity on the occupied border of 1948, which is most of Palestine. This is in exchange for a meager state-let on paper at the occupied land in 1967 with unprecedented concessions on Jerusalem, refugees and the borders; the formulation of which have been manipulated so that their words have become loose to accommodate more concessions. This, as well as the inclusion in the resolution submitted to the United Nations of the request of the third party's presence on the land of Palestine resulting in an international occupation of the land of Palestine alongside the Jewish occupation possible in the future; and at the request of those who falsely and wrongly appointed themselves leaders to the people of Palestine.

The den of the international conspiracy, named the United Nations and its affiliated institutions, has conspired against Palestine since the infamous Balfour Declaration and sought to install the Jewish occupation of Palestine to the detriment of the people of the land and their holy sites, and turned a blind eye to the crimes of the occupation which are continued to this day against the people of Palestine and their sanctuaries.

Strangely enough, the Authority and its president continue their transgression by resorting to the United Nations and its affiliated institutions to seize rights, according to their own expression. Although all their movements that are surrounded by the consensus of the rulers of the damage, and by the slogans of victory and championship and phantom wars, are movements based on concessions and continuous squandering in favor of the occupation. However, the dominant countries in the Security Council and the Jewish entity want more concessions from the Authority leaders. The Authority by its insisting on the resolution, knowing that America is not approving it, wants to tame the people of Palestine to accept its coming concessions that will satisfy the Occupation and the countries that supports it.

The Palestinian Authority has forgotten how to extract rights. The land of Palestine is not retrieved through pleading to countries and institutions that created the occupation and supported it, but through the Jihad of the Ummah and its armies. And this is what is rejected by the authority and not wanted by the rulers of the Arabs and Muslims because their job is to protect the occupation and make it legitimate in the region.

The Authority's pursuit to the United Nations and international institutions is the pursuit of a mirage, and clinging to the promises of the Kuffar is like clinging to a spider den:

[مَثَلُ الَّذِينَ اتَّخَذُوا مِنْ دُونِ اللَّهِ أَوْلِيَاءَ كَمَثَلِ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ اتَّخَذَتْ بَيْتًا وَإِنَّ أَوْهَنَ الْبُيُوتِ لَبَيْتُ الْعَنْكَبُوتِ لَوْ كَانُوا يَعْلَمُونَ]

"The example of those who take allies other than Allah is like that of the spider who takes a home. And indeed, the weakest of homes is the home of the spider, if they only knew." [Al-Ankabut: 41]

The Islamic Ummah, including the people of Palestine will take revenge from the United Nations, the controlling states within it, and the Jewish entity for their crimes against Palestine and its people, and will not forgive the rulers and Authority's leaders their incapacity, and their wasting and squandering of Palestine, its people and its sanctuaries. Palestine is due for the armies of the Islamic Ummah in the Khilafah "Caliphate" Rashidah on the method of the Prophethood which will pounce on the Jewish occupation to terminate their presence and punishes everyone who betrayed and conspired against Palestine and its people from the rulers and the Palestinian Authority leaders, and the punishment of Allah in the Hereafter is more severe and horrible if they are wise.

[الَّذِينَ آمَنُواْ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ اللّهِ وَالَّذِينَ كَفَرُواْ يُقَاتِلُونَ فِي سَبِيلِ الطَّاغُوتِ فَقَاتِلُواْ أَوْلِيَاء الشَّيْطَانِ إِنَّ كَيْدَ الشَّيْطَانِ كَانَ ضَعِيفا]

"Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah, and those who disbelieve fight in the cause of Taghut. So fight against the allies of Satan. Indeed, the plot of Satan has ever been weak." [An-Nisa: 74]
