the UN partition plan you mentioned. I was not referring to your opinion about the authors ( 63 years belligerent...)comment, but to the discussion that took place at Democracy Now.
And no, I did not use the interview to support anything to do with the 63 year occupation comment it was entirely separate.
Raji Sourani, one of the authors of the OP. I don't see his work suggesting anything about '48 borders, the other gentleman is a psychiatrist...I don't know if he writes frequently or not..didn't research him.

http://www.rfkcenter.org/search/node/Raji%20Sourani Abbas: We don't want to delegitimize Israel," Abbas tells his guests. "We want to legitimize ourselves. We are going to complain that as Palestinians we have been under occupation for 63 years".
Your suggesting Abbas would have received a mention from the Israeli government if he had not added those qualifiers? Because he was not
speaking of only Gaza?
"The real issues demanding attention centre upon Israel's 63-year belligerent occupation, and the routine violations of international law perpetrated by the occupation forces."
I don't know aranthus about the OP speaking in codes, I'm not saying they don't exist, they certainly do..I'm just not convinced they're using one.
Makdisi, what is he rejecting exactly?
