Abbas seeks to re-submit statehood bid to UN Security Council
2015-01-05
[Ynet] Paleostinian President the ineffectual Mahmoud Abbas
... a graduate of the prestigious unaccredited Patrice Lumumba University in Moscow with a doctorate in Holocaust Denial...
said on Sunday he was discussing with Jordan plans to resubmit to the United Nations
...an idea whose time has gone...
Security Council a resolution calling for the establishment of a Paleostinian state that failed to win enough votes on Dec. 31.

Jordan remains a member of the Security Council while several other countries with revolving membership were replaced over the New Year.

The Paleostinians hope these states will be more sympathetic to their resolution demanding an Israeli withdrawal from occupied territories and independence by 2017, although the United States would be all but certain to repeat its veto.
Why do it again, then, if the outcome will be the same?
Abbas made his remarks at a cultural conference in the West Bank city of Ramallah, the Paleostinians' seat of self-rule government.
