Show MP/ls A/SPC/32/FV.32 8-10 (Mr. Sayegh, Kuwait) While they were telling the outside world and the international community, "We have no ambitions and no claims in the remainder of Eretz Israel, which belongs to the Arabs of Palestine, who must exercise their self-determination in it", they were at the same time, in their own internal publications, saying, "This entire land is our land, and we have established a State in only a part of it.' In 1967 Israel grabbed another instalment of what it calls Eretz Israel. Forgotten then were the proclamations that "our ambitions are limited to the land where we have established the State": they proceeded immediately to reactivate the doctrine of Eretz Israel. The first act was in the domain of legislation-, under the Law and Administration Ordinance, Amendment No. 11, of 27 June 1967, Israel proclaimed that "The law, jurisdiction and administration of the State should apply in any area of the State of Israel designated by the Government by order." And promptly the Government, within 2k hours, issued the order extending the law, jurisdiction and administration of the State to a part of the then occupied territory - namely, to East Jerusalem. Now, that legislation was only the forerunner of claims of ownership to the entirety of so-called Eretz Israel. The next stage was in a proclamation issued by the Cabinet of Israel, and at the same time by the Executive of the Jewish Axgency. Exactly one month after the cease-fire of June 1967, on 10 July of that year, the Israeli Cabinet and the World Zionist Executive, in a joint meeting in Jerusalem, issued a call to the Jewish people throughout the world. |
