2:07 pm
. late on monday night the palestinian leadership issued a statement that could have far reaching consequences for the peace process the statement includes the call to suspend recognition of israel suspend security coordination with it and unite the palestinian factions through reconciliation the statement comes from the central council of the p.l.o. after two days of meetings it will be discussed further by the p.l.o. executive committee and it's up to that committee to implement the most policy at some point in the future. the statement also said that the u.s. is no longer a partner for peace and that the palestinians want international involvement but given that the us is perhaps the only country that can put pressure on israel will this work. we have to utilize different forms or back on to believe it has to know that this occupation this form of brutal colonialism can no longer be accepted and
2:08 pm
therefore we have to go to the international criminal court we have to go to the international court of justice we have to join organizations and accede to charters and conventions that would protect us from the one hand i'm told as. the us president donald trump has said he will cut u.s. aid to the palestinians if that happens there will be an economic impact this factory produces extractable of leave tablets and he's part of a multi-million dollar project to encourage enterprise in jericho the occupied west bank the factory was set up in this industrial zone with japanese investment without it it wouldn't have been successful for the operations manager here it shows that there are alternatives to the u.s. for example the issue for me is. just in helping. to meet. it once it's completed at this japanese funded industrial zone will house around five thousand workers and that's going to have a positive impact not just
2:09 pm
a locally but across the palestinian territories now if you speak to palestinians what will tell you is oftentimes foreign aid unlike u.s. aid comes without strings and preconditions. but it's not just economics politics also plays a key role according to one analyst palestinian president mahmoud abbas has options he's trying to tell the international community that i will be going to the united nations time after time and he's trying to say that i will have i will be patient i will stop. looking for a. two state solutions if you are not ready for it if there is a range. despite palestinian confidence that there is no alternative to u.s. involvement in the peace process how the international community will react is key at some point the israelis and the palestinians will need some sort of framework for talks without the u.s. what that will look like is currently on line imraan khan how does their occupied west bank get hoffman is chief correspondent at the jerusalem post in west
2:10 pm
jerusalem he says the palestinians will only hurt themselves if they go ahead with their plans. that security cooperation that there's been with israel since the mid one nine hundred ninety s. results in there being order in the west bank results and palestinians being able to work and live their lives with the israeli security forces and the palestinian security security forces working together cooperating and protecting them and the palestine liberation organization as it is that wants to wipe israel off the map deciding that it won't cooperate with israel anymore doesn't hurt israel in any way it only hurts its own people look the israeli government is being welcomed all around the world right now and it's meow isn't india has been six continents and attempt to isolate israel has failed pathetically and when it's now goes around and meets with these world leaders they only bring up the palestinians for about thirty seconds and then change the subject to things that they care about more so i think
2:11 pm
the palestinians need to not be running away from the table they need to be running to the table to help their own people i see one on a shroud we who's been a palestinian leader for decades in your report where is the palestinian state you call for the one nine hundred eighty s. she's the one who failed to bring it about she should be running home in shame about how pathetic she's been in preventing her own people from getting what they want instead of doing more of the same to her own people the united states is not going anywhere the united states will continue to lead the free world if the palestinians don't like who the americans elected as president tough for them that just like israel didn't like barack obama in particular but is real work with barack obama the palestinians will have to work with donald trump the most likely scenario is not that there would be a different mediator but that there would be different palestinian leadership. well bunder the says about seven hundred fifty thousand reading the refugees will be repatriated to neighboring myanmar within the next two years the bangladeshi government says the deal was settled on this week but there's no official word yet
