« Sari Nusseibeh, a Vice-President of Interlitq, has stated (“Los palestinos han perdido la esperanza en una solución de dos estados?”, Shimshon Zamir, Periodista Digital, 21.05.12) that East Jerusalem no longer exists and that, without East Jerusalem as the capital of the Palestinian State, there can, in fact, be no Palestinian State (“ya no existe, y sin Jerusalén Este como capital del Estado Palestino, no hay Estado Palestino”)

Geoffrey Robertson QC, a leading human rights lawyer and a Consulting Editor for Interlitq, tells Mike Giglio of The Daily Beast (30.05.12), vis a vis the recent decision by Britain’s Supreme Court to extradite Julian Assange to Sweden: “Assange must face down these spurious allegations of ‘minor rape’ [another contradiction in terms] made against him in Sweden, but his real anxiety is that the grand jury sitting in Virginia will produce a sealed indictment and the Justice Department will pounce once he gets to Sweden. Sweden has a government that bends to America’s will and has been found guilty of handing out special rendition at the request of the CIA: the Swedish justice system is amenable to government pressure, and he is much more vulnerable in Sweden than he is in the United Kingdom or Australia. He is asking the Australian government to obtain an undertaking from the Swedish government that when its legal system is finished with him, he will be allowed to return to Australia, where he is confident that the courts will deal fairly with any American extradition requests” »
