Israel has authorized1 the construction of 3,000 new homes on occupied Palestinian land a day after the United Nations General Assembly voted to revise the status of the Palestinians to that of non-member observer state. US officials have condemned2 the Israeli move as counterproductive. Kevin Connolly reports.
就在联合国大会表决批准巴勒斯坦为非会员观察国后，以色列授权在被占领的巴勒斯坦领土上建设3000处新房屋。美国官方称以色列的动作将事与愿违。Kevin Connolly报道。
Israel has been struggling to calibrate3 its reactions to the Palestinian campaign for upgraded status of the United Nations. But it clearly felt that allowing the development to pass without some form of political response would be seen as a sign of weakness. So it has announced its granting permission for 3,000 new homes in the west bank in eastern Jerusalem and speeding up the processing of a further 1,000 existing planning applications. The Palestinians and the overwhelming majority of the international community see the area in question as land occupied by Israel.
以色列一直努力调整自己对巴勒斯坦提升在联合国地位活动的反应，但以色列显然认为，不作出政治回应就让巴勒斯坦得逞可能被视为软弱。因此，以色列就宣布批准在耶路撒冷东部的西岸地区建设3000处房屋，加快对目前的1000所计划中项目的事实。巴勒斯坦和国际社会绝大多数国家都将该地区看做是被以色列占领的领土。

President Morsi has said the reason he took the step to given himself powers, because he was worried the court, the judges will trying to preparing legal challenge to the body that was writing the constitution and they will going to hold everything up. So a real tussle5 going on here, and it's really a question of: who you believe more, whether you believe the suspicions of the opposition6, or whether you do believe President Morsi is going to give up those powers. So a real chanting march over the Egypt future taking place on the streets of Cairo and other cities across the country.
总统穆尔西称，之所以授权自己这些权力，是因为担心法庭和法官们会起诉起草宪法的机构并独揽大权。因此，斗争的实质问题是：
你更相信谁，是相信反对派的怀疑，还是相信总统穆尔西将放弃权力。因此，在开罗和各国各城市的大街上，人们高呼口号开始游行。
