RAMALLAH http://www.torontomapleleafsteamstore.com/adidas-calvin-pickard-jersey , Feb. 10 (Xinhua) -- The Palestinian Foreign Ministry said Wednesday in a press statement that the Israeli walls and fences will not make peace with Palestinians.

""It is bridges of peace that bring security to all,"" said the statement, which also warned of the consequences and implications of the annexation and ""colonialist walls mentality"" adopted by Israeli government as a policy to anchor the occupation.

The ministry's statement came a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supported a plan to surround ""the entire State of Israel with a fence"" to keep out refugees, drawing the analogy that the people of neighboring countries are like ""predators.""

Speaking during a tour to a construction site of the border fence with Jordan, Netanyahu reportedly said that he wishes to surround ""the country"" with fences and barriers ""to defend ourselves against wild beasts"" that surround Israel.

The ministry described Netanyahu's statements as ""discriminatory and seeking to deepen the notion of the external enemy in the Israeli consciousness,"" adding that it aims to draw more Israelis towards Netanyahu's right wing ideology which are based on extremism and justifying his anti-peace positions.

The ministry accused Israel of taking advantage of the deteriorating regional circumstances to isolate the Palestinian cause and impose security solutions unilaterally.

The statement also called on the international community to undertake its responsibility and slam Israel's ""intransigence and apartheid walls.""

The Israeli public radio reported Tuesday that the Israeli prime minister is preparing a multi-year plan to surround Israel with security fences to ""protect Israel in the Middle East as it is today.""

The plan includes close breaches made in the security barrier in the West Bank.

Netanyahu made the remarks as he toured the 30 km long eastern fence, still under construction, along the borders with Jordan. The eastern fence is designed to safeguard an airport built near Eilat, south of Israel, at a cost of 288 million shekels (about 74 million U.S. dollars).

Israel began constructing the wall with concrete walls, fences and barbed-wire inside the occupied West Bank in 2002, claiming that the wall was crucial for its security purposes.

In 2004, the International Criminal Court of Justice issued an advisory opinion ruling that the wall constitutes a ""de facto annexation"" of Palestinians land and that it is not justified on security grounds.

ISTANBUL, Dec. 13 (Xinhua) -- Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday urged the Islamic world to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Palestine, while Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas refused any U.S. involvement in the peace process.

Addressing an extraordinary summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) in Istanbul, Erdogan called on countries to recognize "Jerusalem as the capital city of the occupied Palestine," while Abbas urged the world to recognize the state of Palestine.

The Turkish leader described U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the Israeli capital as a threat to all humanity, calling on Washington to withdraw the "wrong, provocative and unlawful" decision.

"The U.S. decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital, above all, means punishing Palestinians who have proven numerous times that they side with peace instead of violence," said Erdogan.

"The U.S. has lost its mediator role in the Israel-Palestine peace process, and we will never allow in the future that the U.S. takes part in the process," Abbas said.

Speaking at a meeting with his OIC counterparts prior to the summit, Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu urged the member states to encourage other countries worldwide to recognize East Jerusalem as the Palestinian capital on the basis of the 1967 borders.

"Palestine needs to be recognized by other countries," he said.

The OIC is the second largest inter-governmental organization after the United Nations with a membership of 57 states spread over four continents. As Turkey holds the rotating chair of the group, Erdogan called for an extraordinary summit with a view to drawing up a roadmap for Muslim nations to follow as they oppose the U.S. decision on Jerusalem.

A joint declaration is to be issued at the conclusion of the one-day summit.

The status of Jerusalem is at the core of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as Palestinians are hoping for an independent state with East Jerusalem at the capital.

Donald Trump's marathon Asia tour moves on Tuesday to South Korea, another key ally in the struggle with North Korea, but one with deep reservations about the US president's strategy for dealing with the crisis.

As tensions over Pyongyang's weapons programme have soared, the US president has traded personal insults and threats of war with North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un, but his next stop, Seoul - and its 10 million inhabitants - would be on the front line of any conflict.

"Getting ready to leave for South Korea and meetings with President Moon, a fine gentleman," Trump tweeted early Tuesday, adding: "We will figure it all out!"
