53. Um, the Palestininian National Covenant
Edited on Sat Nov-29-03 12:24 PM by MikeGalos
is neither a constitution nor is it incapable of being rewritten rather than amended. Please note that it was drastically rewritten in 1967 to change the section which said that the Palestinians had no interest in the West Bank and Gaza. The NEWLY REWRITTEN (and not just amended) Covenant suddenly considered the West Bank and Gaza as tradtional homelands of the Palestinian people once there were Jews involved. You'd think that allowing Jews born since the 1890s to live for the first time between the Jordan and the Sea and with their own country would be as big a change.
