Kuwait calls on int’l organizations to observe Palestinians rights

Kuwaiti National Assembly (parliament) Speaker Jassem Al-Kharafi on Saturday called on international organizations to observe the legitimate rights and interests of the Palestinian nation. He made the remark in his speech to the 5th International Conference on Palestinian Intifada which kicked off in Tehran on Saturday. He described the conference as a very important event and said the confab is to back Palestinian Intifada and help Palestinians retake their motherland. All Muslims respect holy Qods, he said and invited all countries to help establish a Palestinian country with the holy Qods as its capital. “We do not regard the Qods as a city alone but rather as the first Qibla of world Muslims,” he said. Parliamentary delegations including several speakers, leading political figures and scholars from 50 Islamic and non-Islamic countries as well as leaders of several Palestinian groups are taking part in the two-day event which is focusing on the motto of “Palestine, a land only for Palestinians”. The motto adopted by the gathering is a reflection of the fact that Palestinians “are not” in search of a land because they already have their own one. The conference aims to mobilize all official and non-official capacities in the Islamic world as well as other freedom-loving countries to support Intifada and back the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people in removing occupation of their homeland, return homeless Palestinians to their motherland and vindicate the right of the Palestinians to determine their own destiny.
