RAMALLAH, West Bank — The Palestinian leadership has avoided making important decisions in response to the death of Palestinian minister and Anti-Wall and Settlement Commission head Ziad Abu Ein on Dec. 10, despite talk of possibly suspending security coordination and joining international conventions.
Muhammed Madani, a member of Fatah’s Central Committee, told Al-Monitor that the leadership met on Dec. 14 to discuss possible responses and called for an international commission of inquiry into what caused the death of Abu Ein as well as for the establishment of a specialized international tribunal, and the development of all forms of popular resistance against the Israeli occupation.
