Ramallah - Ma'an - The official spokesman for the presidency, Nabil Abu Rudeina, said today, Saturday, that the approval of the so-called "Israeli Ministerial Council for Political and Security Affairs (Cabinet)" to legitimize 5 colonial outposts in the West Bank, and advance plans to build thousands of new colonial units, comes... Within the framework of the comprehensive war waged by the Israeli occupation state against the Palestinian people, their land and their sanctities. Abu Rudeina added that all Israeli decisions are rejected and condemned, and will not give legitimacy to the settlements, which the international community has confirmed are illegal and must be removed from all Palestinian lands, including East Jerusalem. He said that the extremist efforts of the occupation government to prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state will fail, and that the occupying state is defying the will of the international community as a result of blind American support by providing weapons, money and politi cal cover that makes the occupation continue its crimes of genocide against our people. Abu Rudeineh held the US administration responsible for these Israeli decisions that have ignited the region and are pushing things towards a comprehensive explosion. He called on it to take immediate action to force the occupying state to stop the war of extermination it is waging against our Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and to stop its crimes and colonization. The official presidential spokesman confirmed that the Israeli government's extremist decisions will not succeed in imposing a new fait accompli on the ground, stressing that there will be no security or stability without the establishment of a Palestinian state free of colonialism and colonizers. Abu Rudeina called on the UN Security Council to implement its Resolution No. 2334, adopted on December 23, 2016, which calls on Israel, the occupying power, to stop settlement in the West Bank, including East Jerusa lem, and to denounce the illegality of Israel's establishment of settlements in the land occupied since 1967.
