Jordanian King Abdullah II stressed in his speech before the Cairo Peace Summit that “Israel is committing a war crime in Gaza, and the violent bombing campaign on the Strip is fierce and rejected at various levels.”
He said: “When the bombing stops, Israel will not be held accountable, the injustice of the occupation will continue, and the world will turn its back until a new cycle of violence begins.”
He continued, “The bloodshed we are witnessing today is the price of failure to achieve tangible progress towards a political horizon that achieves peace for Palestinians and Israelis alike.”
King Abdullah underlined that “the Israeli leadership must realize that there is no military solution to its security concerns and that it cannot continue to marginalize five million Palestinians living under its occupation.”
He stressed, “We will work to stop this humanitarian catastrophe that is pushing our region into the abyss,” as reported by “Russia Today.”
