24 May 2009 The democratically elected PA
caretaker government of Premier Ismael Haneyya has
called on Muslim foreign ministers to declare the
occupied city of Jerusalem as the capital of
Palestine, and urged them to bridle the Israeli
activities in the city.
In a statement he issued and a copy of which was
obtained by the PIC, Tahir Al-Nonu, the spokesman of
the PA government, called on the Foreign Ministers of
Islamic countries meeting in the Syrian capital
Damascus to support the Palestinian people in
Jerusalem against the Israeli schemes that aim at
forcing and removing them out of the city.
"They [Palestinian Jerusalemites] need swift and
decisive action from their Arab and Muslim brothers
now more than any time else as the Israeli campaign to
Judaize the city reached alarming levels", Nuno
pointed out in the statement.
Nuno also invited the foreign ministers of the 57
Muslim countries to take clear and decisive decision
to renovate and to rebuild the destroyed Mosques in
the 1948-occupied Palestinian lands after the Zionist
occupation demolished tens of them, and turned many of
them into casinos and nightclubs.
"We should all work together to preserve historic
Muslim features that testify to the Palestinian
people's rights in Palestine", Nuno underscored.
He said that Muslim foreign ministers should
immediately layout the practical mechanisms to
implement their decision to lift the siege on Gaza
Strip, inviting them to visit the Gaza Strip so as to
see for themselves the adverse repercussions, and the
aggravated suffering of the Palestinian people as a
result of the Israeli war on Gaza last January.
Furthermore, Nuno stressed that it is about time for
the Muslim countries to start the reconstruction of
the Gaza Strip, and to rebuild what the Zionist
occupation has destroyed.
Finally, Nuno urged the convening ministers to support
the Egyptian efforts to restore the Palestinian
national unity, and to achieve the national
reconciliation, and not to deal with the
"illegitimate" government of Salam Fayyadh that was
installed by Abbas against the will of the Palestinian
people, and through an undemocratic process.
