The Anti-Imperialist Archive Hasan Abdel Rahman - PLO Ambassador - Speech (1977)
There are two aspects to the Middle East problem: Israel's occupation of territories that belong to Syria and Egypt, and the uprooting of the Palestinian people. The latter is the result of Zionist settlement of Palestine and the creation of the state of Israel on the national soil of the Palestinian people. This constitutes the core of the Middle East conflict. The speaker discusses the intentions of Zionist colonists, the recognition of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in 1974, and Israels policy toward the Palestinian people, which he believes consists of eight negatives. The national rights of the Palestinians must be recognized before any serious peace discussions can begin.
