Explained another distinguished Palestinian, Edward Said of Columbia University: "After Camp David, the Israeli annexation of Jerusalem was assured, the settlements on the West Bank increased, and the destruction of Lebanon and its people continued with even greater ferocity by Israeli troops and warplanes.
