The only possible solution to the Palestinian problem is the establishment of a Palestinian State in the West Bank and in the Gaza Strip. This was stated by Hebron Mayor Sheikh Mohammed Ali Janbari in an interview published today in the Arab daily, “El Anba.”

Janbari said a Palestinian State will be a bridge of friendship between the Arab countries and Israel. Palestine and Jordan are different entities, he declared, adding that the Arab countries are incompetent to solve the Palestinian problem. “The Palestinians want to live in a free and independent state.” Janbari concluded.
