<p style="font-size:10pt;">GAZA, (PIC)&#8211; The Palestinian  Authority has been slapped in the face time and again by the US. Most  recently, the US used its veto power to strike down an Arab resolution  put to the UN Security council that would have condemned Jewish  settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, a last  straw exposing the US&#8217;s position on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">The PIC spoke with several political analysts to give their take on the situation</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;America practically sponsors the Zionist  entity and has adopted its settlement activity, politics and military,”  said political analyst Hassan Abdo. ”It only talks about peace today  while doing everything in relation to war. So we must reveal the reality  of its positions and that it is an enemy and not just a biased party,”.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;The decision was certainly a slap by the U.S. To the negotiation process hosted by Washington,” he told our correspondent.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;Fatah is called on to quickly resolve its  positions concerning its future. Will it remain working for Israeli  interests, or will it work for the interests of the nation? If it  chooses the latter, I believe we will see a new unprecedented condition  and it will put us at the start of restoring lost rights,” Abdo went on  to say.</p>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">&#8220;The veto was along the lines of strategic  alliance between America and Israel in particular and the west in  general, so it was not surprising that there was a challenge to  international will in order to support Israel in its illegal acts  against the Palestinians,” said political analyst Naji al-Batta.</p>
<div style="font-size:10pt;">He added that the Palestinian negotiator  is weak and is always trying to escape embarrassment by linking his  failures to the UN and its security council.</p>
<p>&#8220;[Fatah] lives in a  state of confusion,” he said. ”There are corrupt and weak streams inside  Fatah. The first tries to link its interests with Israel. This group  has entered the path of no return. But there may be uncalculated  surprises such as some second line Fatah leaders leaving and changing  the political scene by ceasing to run towards Israel and the west.”</p></div>
<p style="font-size:10pt;">Several national parties and figures have  strongly denounced the US&#8217;s use of its veto to strike down a UN  resolution condemning settlement construction in Palestine, and have  called on leaders to take stands rejecting American pressure and to cut  short negotiations until settlement activity comes to a halt.</p>
