occupied territories because of Israeli practices; and to unifying Palestinian national decision. This was contained in the speech of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, delivered by Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Dr. Nizar bin Obaid Madani, at the emergency meeting of the Executive Committee of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) here earlier today, which is convened to discuss Israeli aggression against Lebanon and Gaza. DR Madani heads the Kingdom's delegation to the meeting. Addressing the committee meeting on behalf of the Kingdom, Madani thanked the Malaysian government and people for organizing this important meeting at this critical stage due to the genocide against "our brothers in Lebanon and Palestine by the Israeli tyrannical forces." The Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdulaziz, the Saudi People and all leaders and peoples of the Islamic nation appreciate this initiative by the Malaysian government to crystallize a united stance to face this unjust war. --MORE
