text: l%airates. I invite him to take a place at the Council table and to make his statement. Mr. ABDUDLAH (United Arab i3niratee) (interpretation fran Arabic) t At the outset, Mr. President, I should like to commend your wise efforts &nd leadership, which have enabled the Security Council to meet here in Geneva in order to listen to President Atafat ‘8 statement 8na discuss the wave of terrorism, murder and genocide practised by the Israeli occupiers against the Palestinian people in and outside occupied Palestine and to a&pt measures ti put an end to this continuous slaughter, which has been going on for more than 40 years. The latest massacre, which claimed 14 victiza among Palestinia, workers, and the ensuing systemtic violence organized by the omuwing authorities, which led to the killing or wounding of hundreds of victim3 in just a few days cannot be attributed to a single act committed by a nmaman. Was the bit Yassin massacre the work of a madman? Was the Kafr Qasim massacre? Were the collective murders, the savage repressions, bombings, the arrests of thousands of people, including children, women and elderly people? Were the attacks against holy places, both Ghrisdan and Muslim? Were all these events the work of a madman? There have been ilemonstrations in Jerusalem against all the meaeures taken by the Zionist occupying poiier with the intent of replacing the indigenous population with settlers. Were all these acb the work of a madman? What has just happened in the occupied territories is cmly one more link in the chain of crimes committed by the Israeli occupying authorities in Palestinian occupied territories. Their rumbers have increased and their methcda have been diversified, as a result of which a host of victims have faLlen since the beginning w/44 s/w. 2923 192-195 (Mr. Mullah, United Arab iWrates) 
analysis: The text appears to be a statement made by a representative of the United Arab Emirates at the United Nations Security Council, addressing the issue of terrorism, murder, and genocide committed by Israeli occupying authorities against the Palestinian people. The speaker condemns these actions and calls for measures to be taken to put an end to the "continuous slaughter". The language used is emotive and accusatory, suggesting that the speaker is more concerned with the political and humanitarian situation in the region than with economic or scientific matters.
