US should recognize Palestinian state, congressman tells Arab News

CHICAGO: Illinois Congressman Mike Quigley on Wednesday called on the US to recognize a Palestinian state, and expressed concern over Israel’s killing of Palestinian Americans and the lack of media reporting on their deaths. Their sacrifices and Israel’s “genocide” in Gaza are fueling a new push for peace, the Democrat — elected in 2009 — told Arab News. A dozen House Democrats signed a draft letter on Monday calling for US recognition of Palestinian statehood.
