The PLO Warns the USA 30 January 2002 Email this story Print this story The official news agency of the Palestinian Authority, WAFA, released a statement this past week warning of violent consequences should the United States decide to boycott the PA and its leader Yasser Arafat. Nabil Abu Rudeineh, the PLO leader’s media advisor, threatened that, as a result of such a decision, “the region will likely witness a quake that would strike the entire region in away that can never be overcome.” Instead, apparently identifying Israel as a colony of the US, the PLO spokesman called on the United States to “…dismiss the Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and bring an end to his policy which goes detriment [sic] for the peace process.” The PA daily al-Ayyam reported that the PLO representative in Washington, Hassan ‘Abed al-Rahman, also threatened that “any punitive measures taken against the Palestinian National Authority would be dramatically risky.” If Israeli Prime Minister Sharon “would have the chance to do whatever he wishes” as a result of US foreign policy,” ‘Abd al-Rahman reportedly said, “…this might lead to adverse security consequences in the region.” Without detailing what they might be, the PLO representative reportedly called on the US Administration to “find a political situation that would enable the PNA to meet its undertakings, not the opposite.
