Obama 'star' of Palestinian ad

President Barack Obama is the unlikely star of a new Palestinian media campaign.

Part of a speech Obama gave in 2010 to the United Nations General Assembly is featured in an ad aimed to rally support for the Palestinians upcoming bid for statehood at the United Nations on Sept. 20, Reuters reported on Wednesday.

“When we come back here next year, we can have an agreement that can lead to a new member of the United Nations, an independent, sovereign state of Palestine living in peace with Israel,” Obama said in the 2010 speech in the clip that is played in the radio ad.

The Palestinians use of the remarks is at odds with the Obama administration’s current all-out push to stop the Palestinians from pursuing their statehood bid. U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East David Hale is set to hold talks Wednesday with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to urge him to reconsider the statehood effort and instead return to direct negotiations with Israel.

During the 36-second radio spot starring Obama, Abbas tells listeners “If he said it, he must have meant it.”

Although U.S. officials described Obama’s statement in the 2010 speech simply as an expression of hope, Abbas has called the statement the “Obama promise,” Reuters wrote.

Both the U.S. and Israel have said they strongly oppose the planned Palestinian bid, and the U.S. has said it would veto the bid at the U.N. Security Council. If the U.S. uses its veto, Palestinian officials have said they plan to apply for an upgrade in status to a nonmember U.N. state.

In addition to Obama’s remarks, the ad campaign features excerpts from speeches by the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat and verses from the late national poet Mahmoud Darwish.

Figures. Palestinians Use Obama’s Own Words In a New Radio Ad (Video)

More hope and change…

Barack Obama called for a contiguous Palestinian State during his Cairo speech to Muslims.

Obama repeated the statement to the United Nations General Assembly in 2010.

Now the Palestinians are using Obama’s words in a radio ad… Even though this is not the current US policy. The Politico reported:

Obama: PA Statehood Bid a 'Distraction'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 13/9/11 | Elad Benari
Posted on September 13, 2011 1:55:17 AM EDT by Eleutheria5

U.S. President Barack Obama said on Monday that the Palestinian Authority's bid for recognition at the United Nations is a "distraction" that will not result in viable statehood, AFP reported.

Obama, who spoke in a roundtable discussion with journalists, added, however, that Israel would "hurt itself" if it retaliated to any unilateral PA action by withdrawing resources that in any way harmed the PA's self-policing efforts.

Obama said the PA's tactics would not solve the problem of statehood, adding, "This issue is only going to be resolved by Israelis and Palestinians agreeing on something."

The president said that "what happens in New York City can occupy a lot of press attention but is not going to change actually what is happening on the ground until the Israelis and Palestinians sit down."

He added that he believed the most likely scenario is that the PA will seek to upgrade its representation from its current observer status to a non-member state in the United Nations General Assembly.

"We are only one vote in the General Assembly," Obama said. "Clearly there are a lot of countries ready to go with the Palestinians -- depending on the resolution."

He reiterated that the U.S. would veto the statehood bid at the UN Security Council when he said, "That's very different than going to the Security Council, and it's true that I have said very publicly that if this were to come to the Security Council we would object very strongly."

Abbas: Palestinians want full UN membership
YNetnews.com ^ | 9/16/11 | Roee Nahmias



Palestinian leader says PA to proceed with UN bid in September because President Obama endorsed Palestinian state; 'I’m going to the UN in order to demand our legitimate rights and secure full membership,' he says.


Dramatic speech in Ramallah: The Palestinian Authority will be seeking full United Nations membership in its statehood bid later this month, PA leader Mahmoud Abbas said Friday.

"I’m going to the UN in order to demand our legitimate rights and secure full membership for the state of Palestine," the Palestinian president said in Ramallah. "We hope to secure full membership."

"We are going to the Security Council," Abbas added, but then made it clear that "all options are open" and that a final decision has not been made yet.

Abbas said the Palestinians will be aiming to "secure independence in the 1967 borders and its holy capital, Jerusalem." He also urged his countrymen to avoid violence, saying "we must avoid force."

"We are the only legitimate representative of the Palestinian people and we intend to keep going until we secure full independence," he said.

Abbas added that the Palestinians are proceeding with their United Nations statehood bid in September because US President Barack Obama said previously he wanted to see a Palestinian state.
