Palestinians prepare to submit UN statehood bid - Forbes.com: " Defying U.S. and Israeli opposition, Palestinians were determined to ask the United Nations on Friday to accept them as a member state, sidestepping nearly two decades of troubled negotiations in the hope this dramatic move on the world stage would reenergize their quest for an independent homeland.
In the West Bank, the core of that hoped-for state, a Palestinian man was shot dead in a clash with Israeli soldiers and settlers as antagonisms flared over the statehood bid."
