PM: Settlement freeze a one-time offer
The ten-month moratorium on new settlement construction is a "one-time, temporary offer," warned Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu when he spoke Tuesday night at an economic conference in Airport City, just outside of Ben-Gurion Airport. "We took this step out of a deep desire to start anew negotiations for peace with the Palestinians," said Netanyahu. Should the Palestinians not return to the negotiations table, he said, "We will resume building. The future of Judea and Samaria will be determined by a final status agreement and not one day before then," said Netanyahu. "Maybe the horse will learn to sing" has been Jews' principal survival policy for 2000 years. But maybe, just maybe, this is the time for an alternate approach? Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2009-12-02 |
