<p><strong>Hundreds of Palestinian and Israeli women have demonstrated Saturday on both sides of Kalandia Israeli checkpoint between Jerusalem and Ramallah, in favour of a Palestinian state at the UN.</strong></p>

<p>&#8220;Abu Mazen do not hesitate, we are with you&#8221;, &#8220;Israel out, out, Palestine independent state,&#8221; chanted the Palestinian protesters in the main passage between Jerusalem and Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.<br />
<em></em><br />
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, alias Abu Mazen, announced Friday that he would make September 23 the membership application of a State of Palestine to the UN, which must be submitted to the Security Council, an initiative opposed by the United States and denounced by Israel.<br />
<em></em><br />
The protesters came from Ramallah, the seat of the Palestinian Authority, from Jerusalem and Bethlehem in the West Bank, at the call for pro-Palestinian groups, feminist and anti-Israeli settlement movements.<br />
They came together, separately, under the slogan, &#8220;Women want an independent Palestine.&#8221;<br />
