Arutz Sheva - Israel - 09/16/98

Palestinian preparations for their establishment of an independent state on May 4, 1999 continue. Yasser Arafat, speaking at a convention of the Arab League, called upon the Arab nations' Foreign Ministers to support his plan to establish a state. He also called upon the United States to increase its pressure on Israel. The Arab universities' Shabiba movement announced today, after its leaders met with Arafat, that it will "begin a national and spiritual program to meet the challenge of the new circumstances of the 4th of May."

Arutz-7 correspondent Yehoshua Meiri reports that Egypt's President Hosni Mubarak has played a key role in pressuring Arafat not to accept Israel's conditional offer of 10-13% of Judea and Samaria as a
second withdrawal. Meiri says that Mubarak has convinced Arafat to drag out the process for a few more months, culminating in Arafat's unilateral declaration of a Palestinian state in May 1999, the month in which the Oslo framework officially elapses. The declaration will reportedly be combined with an international conference led by Mubarak and France's President Jacques Chirac.
