Posted: Sat Nov 24, 2012 8:33 am
Palestine needs 129 votes to be recognized by the UN , once it succeeds in getting that number it will be recognized as a non-member state and this will be very important step for the Palestinians because they will recognized as a country under occupation on 1967's borders which include Jerusalem . Then negotiations will be between two strong sides .
Palestine failed in getting recognition in last attempt in New York when it demanded to be recognized as a member state so this was probably a reason or an excuse for rejection by several European countries but it doesn't really matter having member or non-member recognition but what matters is having the recognition anyway so Palestinian authority applied it's paper to UN for second time expecting good news this time and uncaring for all terrible Israeli and American pressures . Some European countries like France and Italy started to show some allusions recently to support Palestinian efforts in the UN .
