General Assembly (UNGA) December 2, 1977 as a reaffirmation of implementing Palestinian
rights and International Law.
The UNGA stated unequivocally and by an overwhelming
majority of countries voting yes that they are:
"Reaffirming that a just and lasting
peace in the Middle East cannot be established without the achievement of a just solution
of the problem of Palestine based on the attainment of the inalienable rights of the
Palestinian people, including the right of return and the right of national independence
and sovereignty in Palestine, in accordance with the Charter of the United nations".
U.S. guarantees oil for Israel
Is the U.S. behind this U.N. General Assembly mandate? Read your newspapers and look at the News on TV and you tell me what side America has chosen.
"Under a 1975 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) the USA guaranteed all Israel’s oil
needs in the event of a crisis. This Memorandum of Understanding is quietly renewed every
five years. It commits U.S. taxpayers to maintain a strategic U.S. reserve for Israel,
equivalent to $3 billion in 2002 dollars. Special legislation was enacted to exempt Israel
from restrictions on oil exports from the USA. Moreover, the U.S. government agreed to
divert oil from the USA, even if this causes domestic shortages. The U.S. government also
guaranteed delivery of oil in U.S. tankers if commercial shippers become unable or
unwilling to carry oil from the USA to Israel..."
