"Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has raised the Palestinian flag above a UN agency for the first time.

Mr Abbas said he hoped Unesco's admission of Palestine was the beginning of international recognition.

The Palestinians were admitted into the UN's cultural, education and science organisation in October, despite strong opposition from the US and Israel."

Well, its certainly a step. Whether its a step foreward or backwards remains to be seen.

At least they have given up their illegal plans to declare themselves a state. Money talks!

It is totally ILLEGAL for the arabs to declare a State. You wouldn't want them to go against the Law would you?

UNESCO faces financial woes Print E-mail

JERUSALEM – UNESCO’s recent acceptance of the Palestinian Authority as a full-member state has cost it $65 million, the Reuters news agency reported last Thursday.

The large hole in the agency’s budget was created by the loss of US funds. The US cut its funding to UNESCO immediately after the UN’s cultural agency approved the PA’s request for membership.

As a result, UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova said, the agency has temporarily suspended new programs.

“We have to take radical steps and we have to take them now,” Reuters quoted Bokova as saying at the UNESCO General Conference in Paris.

She said that the agency would conduct a review of its activities between now and the end of December, during which new commitments would be put on hold.

By reviewing its contractual commitments, staffing levels, travel expenses and communications costs, UNESCO could probably generate savings of up to $35 million for this year’s budget, Bokova explained.

She added that the agency would then use its $30 million working capital fund to cover the remainder of the $65 million shortfall, but that would leave its finances in a fragile state at the start of 2012.

Bokova also appealed for additional voluntary funding from other member states to bolster agency finances.

“I know this is not a long-term solution, but it will provide the organization with some breathing space to plan rationally within new conditions,” she was quoted as having said.
She also urged member states to make their 2012 contributions as soon as possible.

Canada has frozen some of its funding to UNESCO as a result of the acceptance of the PA.

Canadian Foreign Minister John Baird recently said his country would not give any more money to the agency to make up for the shortfall caused by the US cut, saying that UNESCO will “have to go to the countries who supported this resolution, that caused this budget loophole.”

Declaring a State for the arabs is ILLEGAL UNDER INTERNATIONAL LAW. And thank goodness the birth rate for the Jews in their own country is increasing at a faster rate than the arabs!!!

All ships apart from the Mavi Marmara complied with Israel's request to dock at Ashdod. The Mavi Marmara was carrying no aid at all, and because their intention was to break the TOTALLY LEGAL MARITIME BLOCKADE then it was totally legal to board the Mavi Marmara to steer to boat to Ashdod.
