Fatah chief Farouk Qaddumi said yesterday that armed Palestinian groups in Lebanon would not give up their weapons until Israel complies with dozens of UN resolutions issued against it. "There are 28 resolutions that have not been implemented" by Israel, the head of the mainstream Palestinian Fatah movement told reporters after meeting Lebanese Foreign Minister Mahmoud Hammud. "Let Israel and the United States, which obstructs the implementation of these resolutions, implement them first, before asking us to implement other resolutions," said Qaddumi. UN Security Council Resolution 1559, passed in September, calls for the pullout of all foreign forces from Lebanon as well as the disarming of all militias on its soil. Leaders of Palestinian militant groups in Lebanon have repeatedly rejected the idea of being disarmed, saying Israel continues to be a threat. Israel has been the object of numerous UN Security Council and General Assembly resolutions condemning its actions, which it ignores, usually dismissing the world body as biased.
