It is a move that has enraged Palestinians and now it has drawn strong criticism from Washington. As Condoleeza Rice arrives in the region for a visit, the issue of Israeli settlements is threatening to cause a rift between the two countries. Since the Annapolis conference in November, Israel has approved the construction of 7974 new homes. Dan Nolan reports.

The area was and is called Falasṭīn in arabic. This is the word for the cannonites and their decendants. Peleshet is a hebrew word discribing the people who lived in the area along the coast but not past the jordan river. A few Roman provinces were united and called Syria-Palaestina, Palaestina often being the greek term for the southern coastal area. This was administated by a political entity under roman rule.

fightsislamiccensore1, The State of Palestine pre-existence as a League of Nations Trusteeship Territory adminsitrated by UK and after WWII was re-assigned to UN as a UN Trusteeship Territory and partitioned into two states, Arab [Palestine] and Jewish [now Israel], with same UNGA 181. Israel's own declaration of independence refers to UNGA 181 as its source of legtimacy-commonly called "right to exist". UNGA 273 recognition of Israel Government/ admission to UN refers to same UNGA 181

I think the answer is found in international law, of which the Arab peace proposal is based. What organisations can sign agreements? When you have the 2 major factions in Palestine and the AL arguing for a state on the 67 boundaries you have a pretty strong consensus . The best organisation would be the Palestinian people in a referendum approving the deal. PA can then sign off the deal - this is what Hamas has said. LOL idiot I am not in my thirties, so I guess I have a heart.

Wow! You missed 'idiot' somewhere in your statement LoL. 1. So What is your vision Israel + Palestine; HAMAS-stan/FATAH-stan. in whole Palestine; UN control territory; something else? 2. In your opinion, what organization can sign agreements on Palestine behalf and make sure that 90-95% militants (HAMAS/IJihad etc) bound by agreements? Mr. W.Churchill said about you PauloGViera: "...If you conservative in your 20's you don't have heart. If you liberal in 30's yo don't have brain..."

HAMAS don't recognize Israel and don't offer peace. HAMAS only offers 'long lasting ceasefire' that may lead to... peace. I don't deny Palestinian suffering for a second. But clearly they cannot untied even under own leadership. FATAH, Islamic Jihad, HAMAS in Gaza, HAMAS in Damascus etc etc. Bunch of spiders fighting each other for power using own people suffering as currency. When FATAH talk peace HAMAS fires rocket. When HAMAS talk peace FATAH fires rocket. Outcome is the same IDF strikes.

I never said they talked of a political entity called Palestine but they identified themselves as the Palestinian people. Its this very identity and labelling that saw rise to most of Europe's states. There was never any state called Israel before 1948! I want to manipulate people? Why would I want to do that? I am not Jewish or Muslim or Christian, I live in Europe and have frequently said that both sides have as much right as the other to live in freedom and security on this land.

Islam, sex with children, read Surah al-Baqarah (2.228) here is the Scholar Ibn Kathir's explanation of the verse: The same for the young, who have not reached the years of menstruation. Their `Iddah is three months like those in menopause. This is the meaning of His saying; [وَاللَّـتِي لَمْ يَحِضْنَ] (and for those who have no courses...) ___ The young, who have not reached menstruation (girls as young as infancy!) Tell me this isn't molestation of children.

"WRONG! Newspapers from the turn of the 19th C used the term Palestinian." There was no political entity that called Palestine.EVER! There was never ever any state called Palestine. PauloGVieira the LIAR want to manipulate people.

"Palestinians deserve their freedom, identity and security! " They have already been offered that
