Abstract
The Arab states handed to the Security Council a draft resolution that ‎condemns the Israeli ‎settlement-building in the West Bank and East ‎Jerusalem but the United States vetoed the ‎resolution.‎ A series of youth revolutions occurred in some Arab countries calling for ‎replacing the dominating ‎regimes with new democracies, and for ‎promoting social justice among all the citizens of their ‎societies. ‎ President Mahmoud Abbas entrusted Salam Fayyad with forming a new ‎government after the ‎resignation of his previous government.‎ The Palestinian Government revealed an intention to conduct ‎presidential, legislative and city ‎council elections without specifying a ‎new date for conducting them.‎ The division between the West Bank and the Gaza Strip persists and ‎each side adheres to its ‎precepts without any signs for an imminent end ‎of this division. ‎
