Israel Commences Information PR War Confronting UN Palestine Vote On Facebook

Jerusalem, Israel --- September 7, 2011 .... Several global Jewish and Christian organizations have launched an information awareness PR campaign using social media Websites Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to confront an upcoming UN vote on unilaterally establishing a Palestine state.

Later this month PA, Hamas and Islamic Jihad backed Palestinians will take their ill-conceived bid for a unilateral declaration to statehood to the UN. It’s an irresponsible maneuver that would undermine all peace negotiations with Israel for a lasting settlement.

Palestine Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has stated that the PA would not recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

A UN vote for Palestinian statehood would be an egregious insult to the pursuit of peace and to the universal values of human rights. Washington should adopt the strongest position possible. The administration should cut off the annual $470 million in U.S. aid to the Palestinians if they pursue a statehood vote. Congress should pass a bill proposed by Chairman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) of the House Foreign Affairs Committee to reduce U.S. funding of the UN if the General Assembly gives Palestine an enhanced status.

The Facebook group Vote NO to a Hamas led UN Palestine Terror State calls for its members to demand that every free democracy in the world to speak out and not allow the UN to create a Hamas and Islamic Jihad governed Palestinian terror state.

This pro Israel Facebook group is also acting as a coordinating point for several events related to the Palestine UN vote.

A news release disseminated by Amcha-Coalition for Jewish Concerns (an umbrella organization of Jewish media advocates), calls for a massive display of civil disobedience to be held in New York City on September 20 as a vocal protest of the PA bid for statehood at the annual United Nations General Assembly meeting.

The protest will also spotlight the continuous and obsessive manner for which the world body attempts to castrate Israel, demonizing of the Jewish state as it deflects from member states own issues of lack of democracy, equal rights and increasing poverty..

Calling on "Israel's supporters to stand proud and strong as they articulate a resounding "no" to a unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state", the organizers said that the protest will be led by a sizable contingent of rabbis who will gather along with participants at 10 a.m. at 40th Street and First Avenue on September 20. Other participating organizations will be listed as the date approaches.

Other Jewish organizations are mailing out petitions demanding that the US, UK, France, Spain, Canada and other free states stand up to Islamic Jihad (war against the Western democratic values, Jews and Christians) in the most effective and potent manner.

The Palestinians will ask the UN at the end of this month to recognize their independence in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem - areas captured by Israel in the 1967 Mideast war with Jordan. A Palestinian move which will probably result in the UN embracing them as a "nonmember observer state." The measure is expected to pass overwhelmingly in the UN General Assembly.

The UN assembly's decisions are not legally binding, so the vote will be largely symbolic. But the Palestinians hope the measure will increase the already considerable pressure on Israel to withdraw from occupied territories and add leverage should peace talks resume. The Palestinians have refused direct negotiations with Israel and the land that they are claiming was Jordan before 1967. There was never a Palestinian entity or state.

The London based PR firm Bell Pottinger has begun providing public relations counsel to the organization that represents the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in the US. According to documents filed earlier this month with the US Department of Justice, Bell Pottinger USA has been retained to provide “advice on strategic communications, public relations, media relations and congressional affairs” to the General Delegation of the PLO to the US.

The Website www.UNPalestineVote.com provides a YouTube video illustrating historical fact and presents propaganda being disseminated by Iran, Syria, Turkey and other Islamic states interested in completely destroying the Jewish, democratic state.

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently stated that: "Israel seeks a negotiated settlement with the Palestinians. In fact, there’s an axiom built in what I just said because the only peace that will be achieved, will be a peace through direct negotiations. Peace cannot be imposed from the outside and it will only come from direct negotiations between the parties, direct negotiations without preconditions. I’m prepared to begin those negotiations immediately."

Netanyahu added: "The Palestinians now want to avoid these direct negotiations by taking another detour – that is by going to the United Nations. None of these efforts will advance peace. I think that, in a peculiar way, they will set back peace, and might set it back for years. This is why I call on President Abbas to resume direct peace negotiations right now, without any preconditions. I can invite him here. I can make a security nightmare for my security people, but I’ll go to Ramallah or to Brussels, but I think this is the place where we should go right now, and ultimately this is the only way that peace will be achieved."
