"Despite the aid pledges, the Palestinian economy will continue to contract unless Israel eases its blockage of the Gaza Strip and removes crucial internal checkpoints to allow Palestinians to move freely in the West Bank, the World Bank cautioned in the report.
The World Bank estimated that without such measures, the Palestinian gross domestic product would probably contract by 2 percent annually over the next five years. If Israel does ease the restrictions, and if the Palestinians put promised reforms in place, the economy could grow by 5 percent a year, the report added.
Mr. Abbas, in his remarks, appealed to Israel to take a number of concrete measures, including a freeze on all settlements in the Palestinian territories, the dismantling of what he identified as “wildcat settlements,” a halt to construction of Israel’s barrier of separation and the release of more Palestinian prisoners.
The fund-raiser on Monday was also a chance for President Nicolas Sarkozy of France to play diplomatic maestro, backslapping delegates and greeting Ms. Rice with kisses on both cheeks as he opened the conference.
Mr. Sarkozy, who calls himself a close friend of Israel, called for Israel to allow freedom of movement of people and goods and to immediately freeze all settlement construction on the West Bank:
“Our aim is not to perpetuate assistance to the Palestinians indefinitely. I must insist on this point: it is in Israel’s best interest, provided its own security is not threatened, to foster a normal existence in the West Bank. This alone will enable the Palestinians to work, to stop ruminating on their humiliation, to curb the violence and trafficking and to regain their zest for life.”
Sarkozy told Palestinians" "[Live up to your promises to maintain] law and order over its territory and to overhaul their security services."
Ahem.
What a FRENCH ASSHOLE!!!
What a REAL ASSHOLE!!!!!!!!!
Go suck NaZionist you-know-what, Nico!!!!!!
