PLO takes the Presidency of the Arab League. That is sooo cute. They think they're a real country hosting a real organization. Adorable.

They're more even handed than Ha'aretz or the New York Times.

"Arab countries that have not fulfilled their pledges made during the successive Arab League summits should pay their dues, and there should be extra financial aid to thwart Israel's threats to cut off tax revenues to the PA," Al-Farra said.

Can anyone else see the truth of the situation here?
There is one arab nation only. The fact that they have been split up into seperate governing bodies and given independant borders does not belie the fact that they are one people.
They should have only one representative in the UN who has the voice for the 600 million arabs. The UN has been exploited and undermined to serve the ends of the moslem arab world. How many rep's does China or India have with their 1 billion plus populations?
It's time to either disband the UN or make some big changes.

is no-go. But if left to their own devices 600 million Arabs will very quickly become 60 million after tribal/religious infighting. Cordone them off and enjoy the ride.
Seriously speaking, the whole idea of 1 "nation" - 1 vote regardless of what this "nation" is - is fundamentally wrong. The UN is doomed as it is, just a matter of time.

But I have to throw water on their victory parade. Hamas does not accept their legitimacy nor their actions in the UN. Let's say the UN decides that not only the PLO gets a state but it's the entirety of Israel and the moon and the south Pole and 1 billion dollars for every Arab living there. Hamas doesn't accept those results. They literally want every Jew dead. So then what? They......aren't part of this country? The PLO doesn't have control over them? What? See it's silly like everything else these losers have ever done.
