Occupied Territories: US Secretary of State preparing to recognize Apartheid Wall

Year: 2007

Tel Aviv, 11 January - As the Israeli daily Maariv informs, US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is preparing to tour the Middle East with the intention to initiate a resumption of peace negotiations over the final settlement of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

According to Rice's plans, which had been discussed yesterday between the Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Jordanian King Abdullah II, what is to be called a Palestinian State would established within interim borders based on the actual route of the Apartheid Wall built by Israel.

Totally ignoring the internationally recognized Green Line, the Apartheid Wall reaches far into the Occupied Palestinian Territories cutting them into chunks and taking large swaths of territory on which the huge Jewish settlements have been erected, as well as the entire city of Jerusalem with its surrounding hinterland.
