Seif Islam Qaddafi Isratine proposal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Isratine?

The Seif Islam Qaddafi Isratine proposal is a proposal to create peace for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict between the Palestinians and Israel which was made by Seif Islam Qaddafi, the son of Muammar Qaddafi of Libya, at the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London.

Its main points are:

Creation of a binational Jewish-Arab state called the "Federal Republic of the Holy Land."
The state would be composed of 5 administrative regions, with Jerusalem as a city-state.
The return of all Palestinian refugees to vote on the proposal.

The proposed state of "Isratine" (Arabic إسراطين , sometimes "Israstine" or "Israteen") is a notion championed by Libyan head-of-state Muammar al-Qaddafi to combine the territorial sovereignty of Israel with the wishes of Palestinians for their own government. His proposal has been met with little recognition from prominent parties in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Qaddafi has also backed off from attempts to influence the Arab League in favor of his role as a leading statesman of the African Union.
