A UN resolution to recognize a Palestinian State within the "1967 Borders" would be illegal.

 

The following is a letter drafted jointly by lawyers of the Legal Forum for Israel and by Amb. Alan Baker, Director of the Institute for Contemporary Affairs at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs.

The letter is directed to the Secretary-General of the United Nations, and signed by jurists and international lawyers from around the world.

It cautions the Secretary General as to the inherent illegality and harm to the UN and to the Middle East peace process which would be caused by the adoption of a resolution declaring a Palestinian state and determining its borders.

Our reasoning is as follows:

Ephraim, when you organize yourself it is not illegal!

So what can We say? Yudah and Ephraim – Israelites! Not Arab, Roots in Judea and Samaria. The truth has to come up: Is there a possibility that more than thousand Ephraimites sign a document for an Ephraimite counsel with an embassy in Jerusalem with the desire to be recognized and the possibility to live in their Elohim given Land without becoming a Jew but living together with the Jews as Israel?
