Hanan Ashrawi, a member of the executive committee of the Palestine
Liberation Organization, said that with the new moves toward
construction, “Israel is willfully and flagrantly violating
international law and the requirements of peace.” She called the
announcements “an affront” to Mr. Kerry’s efforts and warned that they
could “provoke parallel violence and extremism throughout the region.”
“The Israeli occupation is exposing its true intentions of creating
‘greater Israel’ rather than a two-state solution,” Ms. Ashrawi said in a
statement. “The Israeli government has proven once again that it is not
a partner for peace nor a member of the international community that
respects the global rule of law.”
