DeLay calls truce âpaper thinâ
JERUSALEM: A truce by Palestinian militants is âpaper thinâ and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat must be further isolated if a new peace effort is to succeed, US House Majority Leader Tom DeLay told Israeli lawmakers yesterday. DeLay, on a tour of the Middle East, repeated calls for Palestinians to disarm militant groups as required by the U.S.-backed road map plan for Middle East peace. Speaking at a Knesset reception hall, DeLay Dismissed the truce called by Palestinian resistance groups a month ago, and said, âMurderers who take 90-day vacations are still murderers.â
