No peace partner in Israel, says Mustafa Al-Barghuthi Dr Mustafa Al Barghuthi: 'No peace partner in Israel' Thursday October 18, 2007 16:49 by Manar Jibrin - IMEMC News manarjibrin at gmail dot com The Palestinian legislator and the Secretary General of the National Palestinian Initiative said on Wednesday that no one should dilute Palestinian issues or remove any of them from the final status list, whether it is the position of Jerusalem, the dismantling of the settlements or the Seperation Wall. He went on to say that the main issue is that of refugees and their rights. Al-Barghuthi added that the continuing Israeli policy of creating more settlements and the daily attacks on Palestinians can only point to the fact that Israel wants to scupper the November conference before it is convened. He believes that it will not be possible to reach an agreement which does not rely on the resolutions adopted by the international community, including the rights of the Palestinians to end the occupation, achieve freedom, self-determination and the Right of Return. Dr. Al-Barghuthi said that people should wake up from their illusions and realize that Israel is no peace partner. Translated by Manar Jibrin
