For those not paying attention, The Palestinian Leaders have been told by the past three U.S. Presidents that negotiating & concessions would ultimately get them some of the land that was TAKEN from them in 1948 (or at least some of the additional land lost during fighting in 1967). More than twenty years later, the Palestinians still sit in war torn pieces of The West Bank & Gaza Strip. Earlier this year, Israel pushed in & approved additional settlements on this lands also & make no mistake about it, those lands are being taken by FORCE! Perhaps with the support of The International Criminal Court, Israel & The U.S. will slowly be forced to go along with allowing the creation of a Palestinian state in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem. The court will be able to challenge Israel's further expansion into these areas, and its unjustified use of military action to enforce these incursions. Palestinian officials will have to wait at least 60 days before they can take any action. For what it's worth, Israel has already threatened unspecified Retaliatory Actions.

As a Result, The Palestinians will now pursue war-crimes charges against Israel and challenge Israeli continued building of settlements on disputed lands. The first step came earlier this week, with an application filed by The Palestinians to join the International Criminal Court.
