The key text of Resolution 1435 on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, adopted unanimously by the 15 members of the United Nations Security Council early Tuesday, with the United States naturally abstaining, is as follows:
"The Security Council?
Reiterating the need for respect in all circumstances of international humanitarian law, including the fourth Geneva Convention relative to the protection of civilian persons in time of war of August 12, 1949,
1- Reiterates its demand for the complete cessation of all acts of violence, including all acts of terror, provocation, incitement and destruction;
2- Demands that Israel immediately cease measures in and around Ramallah, including the destruction of Palestinian civilian and security infrastructure;
3. Demands also the expeditious withdrawal of the Israeli occupying forces from Palestinian cities towards the return to the positions held prior to September 2000;
4- Calls on the Palestinian Authority to meet its expressed commitment to ensure that those responsible for terrorist acts are brought to justice;
5- Expresses its full support for the efforts of the Quartet and calls upon the Government of Israel, the Palestinian Authority and all States in the region to cooperate with these efforts and recognizes in this context the continuing importance of the initiative endorsed at the Arab League Beirut Summit.
6- Decides to remain seized of the matter."
Meanwhile the Empire States of America keeps filling that war criminal Sharon's bloody trough. And its lit the fuse for more bloodshed in Iraq.

| Serving the interests of their English masters during World War One - the so-called "Great War" - about 65% of the more than 330,000 Australians who served were sacrificed on the colonialist alter. That obscene figure rates about 4.5% of the population at that time. The colonial mindset continues with John Witless Howard. |
