Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

C O N F I D E N T I A L THE HAGUE 002361 SIPDIS E.O. 12958: DECL: 09/18/2013 TAGS: PREL, KPAL, IS, NL, UNGA SUBJECT: URGENT DEMARCHE REQUEST: UN ACTION ON THE MIDDLE EAST REF: SECSTATE 268287 Classified By: Political Counselor Mary E. Daly for reasons 1.5 (b and d) 1. (C) PolOff delivered reftel demarche on the emergency special session of the General Assembly on the Middle East to Dutch MFA Head of Political and Legal Affairs Division Pieter Ramaer and Deputy Head of Middle East Division Mark Singleton. The Dutch will follow the EU line, but do not yet know the EU decision. Ramaer said they do not expect a decision today, and any negotiation on the text of the resolution will probably extend through the weekend. He noted the G-77 will most likely support the Palestinian resolution. The Dutch want a united EU stance, and will try to avoid a split vote in the General Assembly. Singleton noted that the Dutch support the U.S. call for clear condemnation of terrorism, and are happy the U.S. has taken a clear position on Israel's decision to remove Arafat. Singleton stressed the need for unity among Quartet members, and underlined the importance of the upcoming Quartet meeting September 25. SOBEL
