    Palestinian leaders are warning that Israel is using the US-led talks
    with the Palestinian Authority as a political cover for expanding
    its illegal settlements, Press TV reports.

    "The PLO Executive Committee considers the unprecedented settler
    decisions which were announced by the occupation government as
    conclusive proof that Israel's first and last option remains
    expansionism, Judaization and theft of Palestinian land, and not
    ending occupation and implementing the two-state solution on the
    basis of the 1967 borders," Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)
    said in a Monday statement.

    The PLO Executive Committee issued the statement during a meeting
    headed by acting Palestinian Authority Chief Mahmoud Abbas in the
    West Bank city of Ramallah.

    They committee said it sees poor prospects for the negotiations as
    Israel unveils plans to build new settlers units in the occupied
    Palestinian territories.

    More than half a million Israelis live in over 120 illegal settlements
    built since Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories of
    the West Bank and East al-Quds (Jerusalem) in 1967.

    Palestinians are seeking to create an independent state on the
    territories of the West Bank, East al-Quds, and the Gaza Strip and are
    demanding Israel to withdraw from the occupied Palestinian territories.

    Tel Aviv, however, has refused to return to the 1967 borders and is
    unwilling to discuss the issue of al-Quds.

    Much of the international community regards the Israeli settlements
    illegal because the territories were captured by the Tel Aviv regime
    in a war in 1967, and are hence subject to the Geneva Conventions,
    which forbid construction on occupied lands.
