UN Ceremony Includes Map of ´Palestine´
in Place of Israel
The United Nations held a "Day of Solidarity with the
Palestinian People" last week. A large map of “Palestine,” with Israel
literally wiped off the map, featured prominently in the festivities.
The ceremony was held at the UN headquarters in New York
and was attended by Secretary General Kofi Annan and the Presidents of
the UN Security Council and the General Assembly. During the festivities,
a map labeled a "map of Palestine” was displayed prominently between UN
and PLO flags. The map, with “Palestine” written in Arabic atop it, does
not include Israel, a member of the UN for 56 years. The map does not even
demarcate the partition lines of November 29, 1947, marking a Jewish state
alongside an Arab state. The partition was dictated by the UN General Assembly
itself.
