In his address to the 67th UN General Assembly, the Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said:

The winds of change in the Arab world and elsewhere will continue to blow.

After decades of harsh occupation and humiliating restrictions in almost every aspect of their lives, the Palestinians must be able to realize their right to a viable state of their own.

Israel must be able to live in peace and security, free from threats and rockets.

The two-state solution is the only sustainable option. Yet the door may be closing, for good. The continued growth of Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory seriously undermines efforts toward peace. We must break this dangerous impasse.
