60th Anniversary Of Palestinian Nakba
EDM number 1484 in 2007-08, proposed by Richard Burden on 06/05/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Human rights, Middle East and Military operations.
That this House notes the 60th anniversary of the State of Israel; further notes that it coincides with the marking of 60 years since the Palestinian Nakba (Catastrophe); regrets that 60 years after 1948 there are still over four million UN-registered Palestinian refugees, in addition to those who were unable to register with the UN, who have yet to have their rights upheld as required by several UN resolutions and have yet to receive acknowledgment of the injustice that they suffered; further notes that there are over 250,000 internally displaced Palestinians inside Israel who have also not been allowed to return to their homes; further notes that over 530 Palestinian villages and towns were destroyed in that period and that Palestinian refugees have not been compensated for the loss of their property; and believes that achieving a just solution for Palestinian refugees is as essential a requirement for a comprehensive and durable peace in the Middle East as is full recognition and security for the State of Israel.
