“That is the only way to ensure peace and security in that sensitive region. The wall is only one manifestation of the illegal occupation.”

“This Council must make Israel, the occupying Power, respect all its resolutions and those of the General Assembly. It must compel Israel to withdraw from the Palestinian territories and restore to the Palestinians their legitimate right to an independent State on their own national soil, with Jerusalem as its capital. Israel's excuses regarding its own security are mere procrastination and demonstrate its lack of earnestness in withdrawing from the occupied territories. It is putting the cart before the horse, because its security can be assured only when its occupying forces withdraw. We ask the Security Council and the international community to strive to ensure that the suffering of the Palestinian people is finally ended and to exert pressure on Israel to withdraw from Palestinian territories.”

“This most contemptible form of occupation is unacceptable and would be cause for resistance by any people on whom it was imposed. The Europeans resisted the Nazis, the United States fought its occupiers, and the Palestinian people is no exception. My country condemns all forms of terrorism, but we cannot accept the pretext put forward by the occupying Power for its killing of Palestinians. True terrorism is that which is being pursued by the occupying Power. This is the same excuse that has been used by colonizing Powers against all those who have resisted them. Fascist Italy, too, used it against Libyan fighters during their war for liberation. The essential problem is that of the unspeakable occupation of the Palestinian territories.”

“Moreover, the Israeli occupying authorities are pursuing the establishment of illegal settlements in occupied Palestinian territories, including East Jerusalem, thus revealing their expansionist intentions and their offhand attitude towards international efforts to achieve a peaceful solution to this problem. Israel's attacks on Palestinian cities; its targeting of innocent Palestinians and demolition of their homes; its extrajudicial executions; its recent destruction of the Rafah refugee camp; and its murder of dozens of innocent Palestinians must be condemned by this Council, which bears primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security. The Council must compel Israel, the occupying Power, to end the occupation of all Arab lands and to abandon all measures to annex new lands.”

“Mr. Treki (Libyan Arab Jamahiriya) (spoke in Arabic): The Security Council is meeting today to discuss the problem of the separation wall being built in the occupied Palestinian territories as a security construction but which is in reality a part of Israel's long-term plan to annex additional territories by force. This represents a serious violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention, of the United Nations Charter, and dangerously threatens international efforts aimed at reaching a peaceful solution. The wall will ruin fertile Palestinian agricultural land, isolate and separate Palestinian towns and villages and destroy the lives of the thousands of Palestinians who are and will be cut off from their lands, work, schools and institutions. The construction of the wall is also an attempt by Israel to reaffirm its annexation of East Jerusalem.”
