“Obama rejects Palestinian UN statehood bid calling ‘it is a shortcut way’”, a news item.
On November 28, 1947, the UN delegate of Haiti was seen in tears in his eyes and expressed sorrow that he was not allowed to exercise his free vote in the UN for the Palestinian partition plan.
After the UN meeting was over, approving the establishment of the state of Israel and refusing the birth of Palestine, of the same single UN agenda, for least known reasons, the Haiti delegate came to our foreign minister Choudry Zafaullah Khan to tell the story.
Ever since 1947, the West has ‘tried’ many times for the establishment of state of Palestine by ‘long ways’ but always landed in the north of the moon’s north pole.
